Well the Nurburgring GP just isn't my place. Struggled in all three attempts at the Nations Cup race, each time in the Megane Trophy. Second race was actually the best, had 10th in hand, on the last lap, but some poor slob trying to compensate for his failings IRL ruined what had been a really really fun and clear lasts few laps amongst a decent cluster of us.
EDIT: had 9th in hand, cost me 35 points and more like 400 DR points.
Cost me 30 FIA series points and a few hundred DR. The guy called me an idiot and said that he was on Softs, so he was entitled to our spots... nice logic, *******. Fact was, I was also on Softs to end the race, it's just that I chose to race clean, not punt people aside to get by. Should be banned from B and above lobbies, people like him.
The real bummer was, I was just thinking "man, this is really fun, all five of us are dicing it up within inches, for two laps now, but very clean-- and I can't believe it"... when the Mustang driver's testosterone took over.
Broke my streak of increased DR at nine days... it had to end somewhere, but it's a pity it ended because of the usual idiots racing like cavemen instead of fair sports. Video for anyone that cares or by some miracle wonders if these idiots really ruin people's races. They do. So that was my chance at recovering my DR after a rough first race, and in trying to do better in the third, I of course struggled, starting the downward spiral.
I don't think starting on the M's was best for the Megane. It's just so hard to keep up on the straights, that any problem coming off the turn leaves you exposed... I maybe should have tried the Porsche, but the Renault was just so easy to drive (slowly, albeit).
Packing up the RSR for Lemans now, hopefully that goes better.
PS: Tried to recover some lost DR at Big Willow, after putting in a pretty decent quali time (for me), only to be matched with A/A+ guys... not my day. Did manage a 4th place to recover some, but it could be two straight days down the DR roller coaster, depending on what happens in France.
