"Double Roll and 4 Spins please - and put some sugar on top!"
Did all 17 SS in one go, never removed my VR-headset, didnt take a look at the leaderboards, as little interruptions as possible to stay focused and concentrated - nevertheless, there was the odd moment, one particularly very lucky. Coming too hot into the chicane 2L 2L 3R 2L on SS4 (cant remember correctly) got through the first two bends much too fast, but no snowbank touched my Subaru - till the end of the section, Mr. Snowbank on my right rear lifted me up and over I rolled - did two rolls till Mr. Snowbank on my left saved me from a penalty, and a bunch of onluckers from a rather unpleasant meeting with my Subaru.
Had no clue how fast or slow I'm doing, but the flow was excellent - the more stages, the more confident I got, till the last four stages I felt my car getting slower and much more swingy - stepped it's tail out way to often, resulting in spins and some hairy savings.
Checked my times compared to my fellow competitors at the end, and was rather surprised to find myself on Place 2 currently - was on Place 1 after SS12, only to get blasted away by
@emuga12 on the last 4 stages.
Highlight was SS11 (the last of the three long stages, loved this part of the rally especially) in about 5.49, gained 4 places overall and got the lead in class 4wd- . Lead lasted for 2 SS, then emuga12 took over and left my behind.
Another brilliant organized event which was much fun to drive - loved the trainig for it, finding a setup I felt comfortable with (thanks @RacingIvy for the gearing, just perfectly balanced), getting faster, hatted my hotlapping sessions, but they helped me in the end to get a decent but save pace.
Longest session I did in VR in one go, and it was a blast! As mentioned before I also need a deodorant sponsor, and some new gloves!
Now the long wait begins till monday evening - there's unfortunately a LOT of room left between emuga12 and me to squizze in.
Looking forward to greece, no more clouds mist and snow, just sunny lovely sunsets!
