Got into a rhythm in race 2 and started to improve lap times. I look at the running positions and "O Shit" I'm running 2nd do to the "Wall". The next thing I know the "Wall" reached out and bit me in the ass. O well, I did enjoy the races last night. Thanks for hosting Jimmy.

Just blame it on Dan. I thought the same thing when I saw you running second. "Fuck yeah. Ed's second! I'm not going to say anything and jinx it." Then a couple laps later Dan rattled out over the comms. So yeah, blame Dan!  |

I felt pretty bad about wrecking in front of Jeff, but after watching the replay, he had room, and he was right where he needed to be. If and that's a big IF, but if he touched the wall it was very light, but from what I could see, it looks more like an invisible wall piece snagged his car, if the collision box for that wall was smooth as it should be, he should have slipped through with nothing but a scratch on the fender, if that. I still feel bad, because if I hadn't been there he could have used any line, but i don't feel as bad because it looks like a track problem killed him. As for myself, I should have settled in and just held my pace till Jeff forced the issue, but nooooo!! I had to see if there was anyway to catch or at-least make up some time on Angelo, so I was trying to squeeze every inch out of the track to keep the momentum going. Oh well, live and learn. I haven't watched the replay, but yeah, it looked like I had plenty of room to get through there without touching anything. I did avoid hitting you but that bitch of a wall reached out and smacked me! I ripped off a wheel and killed the engine. Let's never race there again! Ha! |

Yeah. It was a nice change to run a new track but that one can't be used again until it's fixed.

Strange night, gentlemans. About midway in race 2 I thought I was about to recover all the actual race laps I missed with my discos...  What a debacle. Personally I love the track (the challenging part, of course...not the bugs) and didnt had a single off or moment with the wall yesterday. I was running steady and fast! But was strange because at one point in R2...I was looking at the real time map and the only car moving was mine´s.  Best part of the night...my connection survived the whole event! I hope it continues like that. |

Lol...actually I think this wasnt the case.
I was paying attention, and what was happening is all except me were on the pits...for repairs.
I realized that because some started to move slowly...and when I passed the pits, Chris was still there!
Sure I thought about a disco...but there was a time during the race where most of the drivers were doing repairs.
