Sim Racers 4 Life - BT20 Season - Indianapolis

[edwin]

First i want to thank all once more for letting me in again....after warm up my system once again freezed on me and by the time i was logged in again.....well you all where already racing....
Class act thanks to all

quali:

i don't like ovals that much so i didn't have much practise. I was confident about my setup tho so i figured i would be okay during the race. as i expected many accidents (how could i be so wrong)

Race:

In lap one Cosimo came past me with the speed of a bullet, but i managed to get his tow and we where heading towards Christoph.
We had a nice battle going on and i decided to take it easy and just keep up with those guys and see what happens.....in the mean time saving my tires
Tim and Giorgio came from behind and Tim obviously was faster then me so i let him go, but i came into a fight with Giorgio.
To describe the fight i had with Giorgio, well we have got a saying here in Holland that describes it very well and it goes like this:

Stuivertje wisselen..........

I think you all know what i mean right now, don't you :
So we kept changing places till we clipped in turn 2, no damage done but that cost me a lot of time and i couldn't catch the guys in front anymore.
Lap 29 i was in 8th position and i pitted in lap 30. Team gave me a 52 second stop (4 tires and 67ltr no damage)
Came back on track in 13th position with Nikos in front approx 5sec lead. But disaster struck Nikos and he went of between t3 and t4 and i was able to pas him without giving him a fight. At one moment i was back in 9th position and i saw that the man in 3th place was behind me. i could see him in my mirror but he was way to far behind to even try and pas me. But race control decided to give me the blue flag and tbh i was ignoring that a little due to the fact that DJ was way to far behind imho. However racecontrol told me that if i would ignore the blue any longer that i would be penalised :o so i went off the throttle and DJ came past me after almost a week......lol......after a few seconds.
But sneaky Gorka was on 10th spot and hiding in the tow of DJ.....and Gorka also came past me.....well thanks again racecontrol >

Finished 10th and had a great race.....still don't like ovals tho....but the racing is immersive ???

Thanks for setting it all up, and thanks all SR4L drivers........we really are a great bunch of guys!!!!!!!!!
