SR4L Fun Event Rnd 7 Poznan

[Lecram]

btw dont clutter your screen with tons of info, they tend to take your concentration away. Only overlay I can't live without are virtual mirrors, I fully recomend them.

+1 Virtual mirror is a necessity imho, at least the middle one. Default hot-key for those is ''3''.
Also, if you must use other overlays, don't place them in the top left corner of your screen because that is where blue, yellow, finish and stop and go/drivethrough flags are shown. I remember spending some time behind JP at Sebring and behing Thomas too the last races, wondering if they were at all aware of what's happening behind them and are about to be lapped. Result is do-or-die moves to overtake a ''lapper''...
Now I saw TP saying ''it's not real'' after Yerke's comments yesterday. I'm not sure how to translate that. Ofcourse, it's a game, a fun-league with emphasis to fun and that's good but don't forget people do practise for it to be competetive, some more than others and it's frustrating to lose the seconds of advantage gained by preparation and commitment, to lose them by someone who's not having mirrors on or maybe even just don't care... I don't mind having differences in skill-level, that's the way it is and will always be but we can, although we fight each other the best we can, we can help each other and be gentleman-drivers at the same time.


Sooo ;D great fun it was yesterday. I couldn't get close to my best lap in Qualify but it was good enough for 2nd spot, along side DjC. First race I had a good start and got the lead exiting Turn 1. I was making little mistakes after that and DjC overtook me. I tried to hang on but it didn't really workout and my stop was quite slow too so 2nd again on the grid for the next race.
This time DjC had a better start and got the lead but I outbraked him before the hairpin. So back in first I was determined to make no mistakes but I did and again I tried to follow DjC which worked out better than in race 1. Again I pitted one lap earlier than DjC and again, DjC came out in front after he pitted, a lot further ahead as well. Then it was Alex B who sat at the front row-seat watching me making mistake after mistake, letting me pass and passsing me because I found some magnetic concrete tires next to the road etc. but at least I finished 2nd again.
Reversed grid race was a mess. After 2 laps I pitted for damage and tires and got out behind Paul Swire and DjC. They must have been a lap ahead because I lost a lot of time recovering from a crash and get going again plus the pitstop. Paul was clearly acting as a buffer between me and DjC, I couldn't get past till they both went sliding at the penultimate corner. While overtaking Paul, I couldn't help but to LOL at them, it was a nice situation. I was to far back to get a decent result but all in all great fun!
