Bad race night for me :-X
RACE 1
- It started good, position 7, no accidents in first turn, no position lost, although at Turn 4 or 5 I saw some guys spinning behind me
- I had a close racing with Bauer, Cook and Pappas in front of me till lap 6 when I brake too much in the first turn, it got me sliding a lot and losing time
- Tires were burned, somehow I kept the car steady and got closer to Cook and Pappas by the end of the same LAP 6
- I have passed Cook in the LAP 7, but the tires were failing on me and car was getting harder and harder to keep steady
- LAP 8 - 1st turn, yet another big slide, almost spinning - Cook is now back on my rear end
- I could either slow down to keep tires and risk Cook overtaking me, or push it hard and risk spinning out
- With some mistakes and sliding I was still in front of Cook until Turn 2 in LAP 9, where I had major slide spinning out of track on the sand and Cook, Piper and Hart passing me by
- At that point the tires were too hot and gone, every turn was a slidefest with time losing
- LAP 10 - time to pit - Fresh tires kept me going good till Lap 13
- LAP 13 - turn 3 - I went for early apex, hit the red sausage kerb and BOOM - went flying in the air, landing on the roof and waiting to get back on the road, 3 guys passing me

- Got back and had a good race with Fisk for a few laps till Lap 15 where I spun out again at Corkscrew, losing lot of time to get back, Fisk was gone and someone passed me too
- I had no chance to get back at them, it was just a matter of completing the race and finishing 11th
RACE 2
- I was irritated from mistakes I made in first race, but rolling start went fine, position 7, in first turn I went bit wider and Andy Piper passed me on the inside, me losing a position
- On the same lap later, DJC went off track with few of us passing him by, me regaining POS 7
- At last turn of this lap, I got in position to overtake Piper from the inside for the 6th position, I have secured the line but Piper didn't saw me and bumped in me, causing me to lose time and lose 2 more positions to Cook and DJC later

- Now POS 9, for next few laps there was good close racing with DJC, Cook, Bauer and A. Piper in front of me
- I did some mistakes and unnecessary burned tires, causing car to slide a bit
- LAP 6 - Piper in front of us made a mistake going bit off track, started to slide and crashed into Cook, Cook spoon out, we passed him by

- LAP 8 - I got passed Bauer for POS 7, two turns later I went wide and lost position again, while Mel Fisk pressuring from behind
- LAP 8 - going into Corkscrew, Bauer pushed too hard and locked brakes, I passed him but slide into me, fortunately we got both back on track, while Fisk passing us both

- After that my game suddenly started to stutter, not lagging, but stuttering like it is working at 15-20 fps, It got me de-concentrated, making it hard to drive
- LAP 9 - first turn, Bauer passed me - I was in POS 9 at the moment, game still stuttering, tires burned, hard to keep the car on the road
- LAP 9 - turn before Corkscrew, I went sliding of the track and spinning, Dancourt passing me - now POS 10
- LAP 9 - next turn - Corkscrew, missed braking point, went sliding and spinning towards barriers, losing one more position - now POS 11
- LAP 9 - last turn, tires overheated, made a big slide, almost spinning out, lost a lot of time
- At this point I was very mad, there was stuttering, I did several very big mistakes in 3 turns in a row, car undriveable, I was close to quit but decided to go on
- LAP 10 - I wanted to Pit because of tires but I saw Tobias very close in the last turn, so I decided to take a shot to get closer to him even my tires were done
- LAP 10 - last turn, me sliding big again and almost spinning out, losing a lot of time
- LAP 11 - turn 3 - tires gone, Cook pressuring from behind, I went sliding of the track, spinning around, he passing me by
- LAP 11 - got a big slide again almost spinning in turn just before the Pit
I got into the Pit and left the car there, I was done for the night
