Ok, now this was fun
Started out to only do qualy. Grid was not so big, but reasonable close (besides our local alien Frederic
). I could not keep up with him, about 2 - 4 seconds, depending on how hard he pushed
James was quick with the 370, and I soon realized that my calculations where a little bit off, and that he should be able to win this if he could keep it constant.
Somehow, I managed to end up pole, after Frederic had to leave. James was behind, and Tiens was the third in row. Start went ok, nog great, but I managed to keep the lead, and take a little gap. Since the Megane is a bit quicker then the 370, which was right behind me, and James decided to give Tiens a hard time to let him pass, I managed to get a little gap between me, and Tiens who had gotten by. Within notime, he was on my tale again, but I managed to keep my head cool, and stay in front of him. Felt a lot of pressure, so made a unexpected move, and made an early pitstop. No tires, just fuel. Got out with a 30 second gap behind Tiens, but in front of James, who had spun unfortunately. Pushed really hard for the next few laps, and passed Tiens again when he made his stop. Got a 8 second lead, and 5 laps to go, so figured I could do a little bit more carefull, as I did not changed my tires. Bad move... Within 1 lap, Tiens got almost 2.5 seconds back on me, so I had to push again. My tires got worse, so it was hard to keep a good pace, but I did it
I won mysefl my first clubrace on RD.
Damn I had fun. We talked about the smile on the face whilst driving rfactor2. Well, I can tell you, it was huge again.
Thanks again for being here guys, remember to post any new setups in the forum, and see you soon on track again. Now I have to think of a new event for next week
