qualified well, almost got into the 16's - but kept hitting traffic as I suppose everybody else did too.
first race, did ok, not great, not bad - ok until the pitstop, after that I noticed puffs of smoke in my mirrors???? what is that I asked myself?? I "thought" I was bottoming out, but I didn't hear anything. gauges all good, temps good - then I started losing time. I was in the top 10 - 8 or 9 with a lap and a half more to go when - my motor went???? really, seriously - I don't ever, ever - EVER - remember anyone's motor going. but mine did and according to the results - Stephen's went in the 2nd race. has that been this way the whole time?? is it something new?? I thought about just letting the car sit there to see if I could get points - cause - "if you don't finish - you DON'T get points" but that would be rude. so I clicked out........ bummer, I had some pace..
second race, I was in 14th spot, make the best of it I thought. green goes on, I leave, cars warp, cars wreck - and there I am in 4TH place! ;D well then, second race will be better then - right? NOPE, restart. green goes on, chaos is happening and I am being very very careful. I make it to the bridge on the back, I see smoke, I am being careful, I am laying back - when out of the sky a formula car lands right on top of me. BIG log jam on the bridge, a freaking mess. nobody can go anywhere - I am sideways with cars wrecked all around me. try to go forward, nope. try to go backwards when someone else hits the pile from the other side. I go flying in the air, upside down, but off the bridge. as I get uprighted I put it in first and pull onto the track and WHAM I get hit again. my car will only go in circles after that - day over, ended - fini......... and a lot of cuss words.......
;D yeah..........
