I had no realised fuel won't be enough for the 17 laps planned. We have two posible actions, have people do a pitstop for fuel or reduce the number of racing laps.

Is it possible to have 3 x10 lap races

Hi Gorka,
In car tuning, pick the endurance car for a bigger fuel tank.

My sincere apologies to Dan Minges.
During the second race I made a terrible and very stupid mistake I can't even wrap my head around the fact I did this.

I didn't feel there was anything unsportsmanlike, the problem I had was the car becoming more undrivable on each lap presumably due to flatspotting/uneven wear. Did others experience this? It wasn't the usual vibration that can be very annoying and loud, but doesn't interfere with driving, but instead it was like a maniac gripping my wheel and randomly and violently yanking it back and forth which made it impossible to accurately place the car.

Normally vibrations come after a flatspot, constant locking up the fronts at the brakins or having a big spin.
As laps went by I started struggling with rear grip . It wasn't due to uneven wear as I saw both fronts and rears had the same wear, but the moment the rear tires start to slide due to power they started to overheat making the problem even worse.

I had a similar problem, First half a dozen laps was improving by about a second a lap then it all went to pot.
