Throught out the course of the event i'll be updating the thread with the results of the various sessions so keep an eye open.
 
It was weird as things were laggy heading into Indianapolis, so I spun out. Not sure how I stopped it from going into the wall there! Then when I eventually rejoined, everyone's car disappeared! I haven't been disconnected from an online race for a few months, so hopefully it was just an isolated incident!

Nice vids though!
