Well, after over an hour and a half, I brought the logo'd-up Bee Em Dubyah home, a lap and a half behind the winner, and in 11th place. I spent most of the second half in tenth, until, during some wheel-to-wheel racing with !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! in another M3, I flipped, knocking us both off the track. He recovered before me, and passed me. A 3rd M3 (driven by !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! ) passed me on the second to last lap, but I got him on the last corner. All in all, much fun! Hat tip to !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! for setting this all up, and for sneaking me into the second race when I missed the first one!

I wondered who that was.

I just realized I missed it...

Not that I have Live or anything, but I spent an hour on my livery just in case.

That flip looked GLORIOUS in the rear-view.

It looker pretty fun from my view too. Except then I was like "SHIT SHIT SHIT WAIT HE'S OFF TOO COME ON GO CAR GO GO GO aw shit he's gone."

I wonder if I was the only car to flip, outside the glitch-induced pileups.

Your car was glitching all over for me... I wasn't anywhere near you, then you were flipping across my trunk, knocking me into the dirt. Don't know how I saved it. :D

I wondered if glitching was just something other cars did. Now I know I do it too. That Ford GT was the worst for me though. Every time I got near it, he sent me flying.

That was great fun. Wish my McLaren could have caught up to the SLS.

It was good racing with you. The first lap predictably had issues but we all behaved and raced cleanly after that.

I'm ok with that. :)

I participated in a 33 lap race on Wednesday. We used '76 layout and old touring cars. I had a Simca 1000 but my network died during the last lap. The Mulsanne straight wasn't very interesting with Simca's mild top speed.

Nope, I turtled the flying lizard 911 pretty spectacularly. After two and a half hours of that track you find yourself making mistakes here and there lol

I wish my GT3 RSR could have caught up to the McLaren =)
