I apologize to everyone for my sloppy race... I tried to stay out of everyone's way. I pushed a little to hard on lap 6 or 7 and it was all down hill from there. At least me and BMX had a good battle and with the penalties he got 8th hehe. Bring on Bruno, a lot of us need a rebound race lol. and with u all over my bumper I hit a 59.5 thanks for the pressure lol.

I was 1 sec off my practicing laptimes, just to make sure I would bring the car to finishing line in one piece ;D THAT at least worked well so far... rather ridiculous was that I ran my fastest lap only 4 laps before race end - on outworn tires ;D Big thanks to Mauro for the great fight we had most of the race Awesome speed up front. One remark on Ron and Carlos: for whatever reason both your cars were hopping and jumping after pitstop. As if pitstop had added lag to both your lines. Did that show on your screens as well ?

On my screen that looked like you both were in an fighter aircraft dogfight ;D On my results.txt Ron made 3rd and Carlos 4th. If any of you got a different result, pls yell. Given that case, I'd need to have a copy of Carlos' and Ron's results.txt

I had no lag hits on my end with Ron, but cars were jumping all over and I sure left a lot more room that I would have liked. When DaveO lapped me his car warp jumped and hit me from behind quite strongly, that caused me to go off track and get a pen. Then I got another pen one of the countless times I met a vette on track.
Those 4 seconds on lag-pens were the reason I wasnt happy with the results, but shit happens, Im sure no one was trouble free this race and I want to make clear Im blaming no one here.
Congrats to Ron because because he did a great race regardless of lag, and Dave and Crash for victory and 2nd.

Hi Carlos, I'm sorry that on your screen my car seems to be warping and caused you to get a penalty!! On my screen I have you warping and then dancing into the grass.. Here's a copy of my replay for anyone who is intrested in checking it out. www.speedsims.net/files/groupc/replays/RoadAtlantawin.rar

No worries Dave I know it was warp not you ... when Dave was lapping me he was passing THAT fast, you could almost have suspected GCF-caused zooming ;D But his laptimes proved he really was that much faster

Road Atlanta was an incredible race, Crash was hitting awesome lap times also of 57.1. Crash and I had an awesome battle for the first 15 laps of the race until he went into the pits.. Next time I hope Crash does a 1 stop race and doesn't pit twice! Thanks Crash for all the fun. Also big thanks to Karl and Mauro for the extensive practice laps last week!!
