hahahaha!!!
Hi all,
Finaly i had burned my beautifull Lola, after (maybe) wrong setup :-(
All began at qualifying session who i was made my best lap (1:34:648) ever at this track with this car, so i was start the race from the 9th place of the grid.
The race starts nicely without any incident at the first laps.
Also i can keep my place with some up and down until 10th lap who i had a small accident with Mel.
After few laps i can jump το 7th possition and at lap 16 I pitted was a 25 seconds pitstop.
There is my first serious mistake (i was over speed at pit lane), so i must made my drive through penalty... and i should be back in pits directly.
Came out for second time of the pits at 9th place my only plan is to finish that nice race.
When passing Nikos, who was one lap behind me
, I saw from the mirror, apart from the angry face of Nikos hahaha, the first signs of black smoke...Until figure out what's going on I have already passed the entrance to the pits, so i decide to cut speed and try to bring it back to the pits for repair.
At T1, however, the engine had a different opinion than my own, so Lola blow up and made a very nice flaming picture I believe for all competitors ;D :o :-[
I was ecstatic to watch the sight from the mirrors and to try to deal with the plate that made me Nikos, who was stopping next to me for help.
So my race stops with a big frustration for me about my second DNF.
However i enjoy all that nice event and i will try to be better (except SPA) at the next race!!!!
Thanks SR4L and all of you, and see all of you at next Sunday!
