Sim Racers 4 Life - BT20 Season - Round 11 - Circuit de Monaco
#1
Obviously not for me this race.

it started good though:
At Practice I was awfull, couldnt do better than :35 and I kept doing :36s.

Then, at Qually, I decided to take a different approach to the chicane, go in it in 4th, than change down to 3rd.
Well, that did it good, I was into :30s Big Grin

Race 1 I started fantastic, I was 4th, but then I had some damage, dont remember how.
Steering was bad, but not lethal and I was turning :32s.
Also traffic behind was in a safe distance so going into pits I dicided not to fix damage.
Now I always try to remember to have the keyboard on my right side but I always forget it to the left, so it takes some funny moments to change its place while racing.
I usually do that on a straight, but theres no place like that in Monaco.
So, while moving the keyboard I accidentally pressed something (I later found it was the minus key), and suddenly I found myself on board of David Hart's car.
For a while I turned my wheel and his car responded (or so I thought), but when after we (lol) completed a lap, I saw my car lying vertically at start finish :S

I suddenly realised what was happening, I started pushing every button on keyboard trying to get back in my car, no way, so I pushed esc Tongue
Sorry to all who had to avoid me lying there.

Race 2 I got lead position as I was 10th in Race 1, and disaster stroke again.
While I was trying to find my view back hitting the keyboard, I turned autoclutch off, so I stalled everytime I tried to get off, scaring I guess people behind and receiving some blows.
I finally got off, steering bend again, but I was doing :33s so I thought I might make it.

I had some luck too, Edwin had problems and he went into pits.
When my time came, he just passed me, and I followed him close into hairpin, he seemed to have problems and I smelled blood Big Grin
Suddenly, a fast guy came after us, lapping us.
I gave way just before the right hander that goes into tunnel and Ed opened up to let lapper go.
He went too wide, so I easily followed the fast guy and passed Ed.
Then I suddenly remembered this is one of the NO NO things to do, I gathered back my senses and waited Ed to pass me back in the tunnel.
I got back hard after him, so I forgot I had damage and I hit the ramp at Tabac clumsilly and I ended on the wall Tongue

Car was drivable yet, so when I saw Hart limping in front, I thought this is my chance so I followed him close.
Then at chicane, I realised my damage was more than I thought, car did some strange swerving under brake and I went for a swim into harbour.

Definatelly not my day Tongue
