I was struggling with the Megane to get in the 1.39"s. Decided to go to default setup only changing cambers braking balance and braking map and bum. Suddenly the car was a lot faster at corners making a 1.38"7 in the qualy and be the first Megane in the grid, just to get the first CTD of the night.
Race1
--------
Started well, losing no position and avoiding trouble at T1. But suddenly aproaching the next righthander my steering controller reset. Lost for a second all control of the pedals and steering and car did brake causing someone to hit me from behind. Steering suddenly became so "straight", as if driving a go-kart, the slightlest movement caused for a sudden steering lock, reseting FFB didn't bring anithing new.
Decided to go to do my pitstop and while it took place unplug and replug the wheel. But it didn't work either, so decided to press scape and go back to monitor and wait for the race to finish.
At that moment another CTD happened and that seemed to cause a lot of trouble on track, sorry.
Race 2
---------
Starting last had to do T1 through the inside grass as it was busy with pilled up cars. Got a good first half of the race finally approaching the leading Meganes. At turn 6 we all went to pit. I was expecting my pitbox to be close to the end of the pitlane but suddenly I found it was at the very beggining. Broke hard but I had to reverse. While I was reversing another car came in and stopped in the same pitbox. Tried stopping beside him but pitstop never started so decided to leave pits and do my pitstop the following lap.
After that second pitstop I was way behind having the next car ahead in a 40 sec gap, so I just raced alone for the remaining laps.
Race 3
--------
At the transition from Warmup to Race I got another CTD, so it was the end of the event.
Tried to go to the Belgium server but it was offline, probably to increase racing server's performance, or at least that was what I thought.
So I picked up my racing shoes and went out for an 8km night run.
(It's curious that after online races if I go out running my heart is always beating an average 15 to 20bpm higher than normal running sessions)
