Race report
Atlantic nGT: Barcelona on Jul 13, 2007
Car: Porsche RSR. Class: nGT. Start: 12. Finish: 18. Laps: 19.

Horrible race for me,
Was too unprepared, (only noticed during the warm up that I had been running only half a tank during practise then wasn't sure if I could make a one stop etc)
Only managed to get two qualifying laps in and both were poor so was surprised to see i qualified mid field in 12th.
Drove through the slight bit of trouble and the start on the first lap, but had two spins early on that landed me 18th (and dead last?) which was annoying.
Then i started getting lapped, and when the 3rd and 4th place guys cam up on me they suddenly disappeared from my rear view mirror, I knew I had lag so tried to calmly drive off the track so as to not obstruct them, waited for a couple of seconds in the gravel but there were no cars anywhere to be seen, so esc'd back to the pits and sure enough after a few seconds lost connection altogether.
Most Frustrating, I had some lag and one lost connection early on in practise, but then everything seemed fine.
Shame.
