Nice race guys. I had that Twitch stream up as I was on and off the computer yesterday and early this morning for the finish. You were up around the team that was streaming the feed (who ended up in 3rd, I believe) when I was watching so it wasn't too hard to see how you were doing. Out of curiousity do they usually run the endurance races like these with just one class, or would there typically be a mix of prototypes and GPs on track together? I missed the big protest at the start after apparently a bunch of the top split teams were booted and wasn't sure if that had anything to do with it. I think the split was "too low" to have HPD's race as well. Yeah. iRacing tries to configure the higher splits with a good mix of cars but if one class is way more popular it ends up dominating the lower splits. Sometimes their system backfires as at the previous event that had "Pro" racers in fast cars and near novices in Kias

So I did a little looking at the result sheet.....give yourselves a little pat on that back. We did better than our P5 finish suggests. 3 of the 4 teams in front of us had ringers w/ iR of 5000+ (winning Ferrari had a driver w/ 6000+). 2 of those 3 teams had drivers w/ PRO licences that ran a lot of laps compared to most of there team. The field was stacked, and we still prevailed. Well done everyone.

Great race guys. After I ran my laps, I didn't check back in until about 2 hours before the race finished. I was very happy to see that we were still in the top 5.
I kept telling Snappy he only needed to do one thing...KEEP THE CAR ON THE TRACK AND MOVING FORWARD. We had plenty of gap to 6th place that fast laps were not required. He was a good listener and did what I asked. All the blinking was a little stressful though, especially those few times when it lasted more than a second or two.
