GassyHaggis Yeah thanks mate, by far my best race on ACC. I enjoyed it immensely. Everyone in front of me on the grid regularly get alien times in hot lap challenges set by IXL, so I was pleased to be amongst them and even more pleased when I took one of them in the first few corners of the race around the outside to take 3rd. After that, it was me and SPS Stale just going at it lap after lap after lap. Great fun and fair play to him absorbing all that pressure I was throwing at him.
I had planned to do the opposite to him when the pit stop window opened but unfortunately traffic meant the best time to pit was when he did too. I lost a few seconds in the pit and after that I couldnāt bring the gap down. However, Iām really happy with 3rd against this competition. I owe some of that result to a CDA setup. LMR Critical who finished 4th behind me shared it with me. Normally in a race Iām a little nervous with the feeling in the car but tonight it was perfect and I was able to just push and push and push. Itās really made me consider buying some setups from them.
There is however quite a skill variance from front to back of the grid. As you say @GassyHaggis some of those back markers were terrible! š±
GassyHaggis Had my own race tonight at Misano in the wet. With the times people were discussing I was not looking forward to it. But for whatever reason everything felt good and I qualified eighth. Got a penalty for causing a spin and served that ten seconds at my pit. Finished fifth and if not for the penalty and slow lap when it happened I could have had fourth and maybe even third.
Thatās a shame and as they all like to say āthatās racingā. Good job to salvage what you could and onto the next one and hope for better!
Itās Laguna Seca for me next week šš»
