RE: SIM RACERS 4 LIFE - BT44 SEASON - ROUND 5 - ZANDVOORT - REPORTS - 1959nikos - 04-12-2016
Race still goes on while Im writing this.
I came very late at home and I was lucky to join when qualy ended.
To my surprise there was no warmup, just straight to race.
People asked about that, I looked around for Paul but he wasnt there, obviously Paul had an IRL problem and I asked for a restart.
A lot of people agreed but as it happens in such cases there was a big confussion and at the end I decided to act as admin and restart race.
As far as Im concerned race was a nightmare, I couldnt concentrate in racing, all I could think of was what I would write in this report.
I thought of making a poll so this race wouldnt count on the championship but then I thought that a lot of people were racing regardless of the mess so a poll maybe would be unfair to them but if somebody feels a poll is appropriate please make one.
I left race cause I didnt want to have any points of it, and from me and on behalf of SR4L staff I say I/we are trully sorry for the mess and we will work hard so this wont happen again.

You raced hard there as others, points should be awarded IMO

I have only just got home after being out all evening and I can say it was my fault for not setting the server up correctly. Shows what can happen when you rush to do things when your busy else where.
Obviously this has upset some people because I like many once qualy is over I go out the room and do things like get a drink etc because I know I have a few mins before the race starts.
I'm not asking anyone else to take the blame for this this is all on me. And all I can say is sorry to all of you.
I would like to propose one if two options for this race.
1. We scrap this result and move on with the season.
2. We race it again next week and just adjust the dates for the rest of the season.
I don't think it's far to use these result for this race at all because of the problems had by so many.
Once again sorry.
Paul

Paul IRL things happen, no matter how you try against.
I say this race happened, results are valid, go on do the results Tim, and life goes on.
