Let me add another comment. I'm glad to drive with you all. This is a total contrast to many LFM races where I'm not so sure to complete a race. This community is great.

Did you race on The Sim Grid before they stopped doing daily races? Your name rings a bell.

This is great to read, it's made my day to be honest. Having a bit of a tough time with a few things I won't bore you all with so it's great to see the effort is worth it! Thank you.

My race report.

Didn't feel confident going into it. Tried a few cars and setups, ended up on the Aston, which seemed the most confidence inspiring.
Watched a few fast guys and picked up a few lines, which boosted my confidence during practice.
Quali was a bit wierd with traffic and track limits, but managed to put a lap in.

Starting the race was survival mode. I was trying to stay out of trouble and get space to find my pace, which I eventually did.

The incidents in front of me were a bit crazy with the night lights. Marty sent it into the curb of the star of the other pit straight and flew! Don't know how he held it.
I think I caught two punctures 5 laps before the end of each stint, loosing pressure on the rear rights and loosing pace.

I nailed the pitstop, gaining time to André (the guy who introduced me to this series!), but it didn't make a difference in the end. Thank you for the tips Chris!

Survived to finish 7th with some bad luck from others. Good result for me.
Excited for imola! Maybe a good track for surprises in the conditions...?

Thank you Chris for putting this on and congrats on the win.
Good to see you on the races André! Thank you for bringing me here!

Yeah I flew Couldn't hold my line during this turn as I accelerated a bit too much, which made me oversteer and jump on the curb

I hate these sausage curbs...

You need to look at the replay from my in car perspective. It was insane!

I’m still raging about that pit stop two days later, it isn’t healthy!

When you watch the replay from outside the car it looks awesome

If my rim wasn’t bolted to my base, I swear to god I would have launched the bastard clean out the window.

Awesome! If you want to use the TC and ABS rotary dials in game I think you need to set something in the Fanatec software - a quick Google search should show you.
