I had faster oping laps(1:23.2xx) and better 2nd and 3rd laps but these pit laps were pretty fast and lap 18 out lap was the fastest I ever ran. I did try yesterday, one more time and ran a 26:28.6xx with a fast 1:45.6xx in the race.

My reasoning for the stagered stops was to keep a comfortable gap from the AI. I think the closest they came was 20 seconds near the end of lap 17.

Now on to the next one.

One more thing. I think we've already seperated the men from the boys. The next race is for bragging rights.

Congrats 'Mich, supoib time there mate!! I had a couple runs in the upper 20's, but they weren't "nice" enough. Wouldn't have mattered as I didn't have anything near your time:tup:

UBeee, on da podium again! Way to go, most esteemed RA!

and thanks to last of the Brave, Der Alta and Der Duke for seeing this thru. 20 lappers ain't easy, let alone multiple attempts! My hats off to you gents

Sounds like 'Mich is gonna get all serious like for this last one, I better hit the bricks hard! Did I ever tell you that Grand Valley is just down the road from me??
