Toledo Showdown

Thanks for the nice clean racing boys.

I lost it coming off Turn 3 to bring out the first caution. I was lucky to miss pancaking the wall but with no damage I was able to continue albeit a few laps down. I wasn't as competitive during the race as I had hoped, but I held on and was able to stay out and grab a few spots as some drivers pitted late.

Looking forward to Michigan :)

I finnally finished another stock car race.

Messed up qualli when hit the wall straight after when I left the pits. Np I wanted to be at the back anyway.

Well in race I just tried to hold up and not crash, had a few incounters with the wall but nothing serious. Sorry to guys behind me after second yellow I didn't realise that you had one lap more and for few laps I absolutly didn't spotted blue flag. I think it was Charles, Joja and Pablo.
When I went to pits for second time I crashed the wall big time, luckily was able to continue and get it repaired for 63 seconds which is 4 laps:), it took my chance to rejoin the battle with Carlos and James but I'm happy for finish anyway.

Got one qustion: My tyres temps are not shown corectly in the race, first stint I've seen tepms which I had from warm up and it didn't move, when I changed tyres and went from pits I had temps from what I believe is moment of changing them because there was a severe use as well. But I knew I had a new ones. Same problem after second stop which actually shows my left tyre red because of crash but I had both of them new.
Any fix for that?

Hello Michael!

First: blue flag in the stockcar is not the same meaning as in F1 for example. This is a blue flag with a yellow stripe, which means : The blue flag with a yellow stripe is shown to warn slow drivers of faster cars approaching. NASCAR rarely punishes drivers for not obeying this flag; however, it is frequently displayed and warnings may be given if it is blatant (such as a lapped driver blocking for a teammate). So, this is just fair play.
On end of the race i was 3th and Davis was 4th, i see that Davis is faster than me, so i let him by, I do not have a reason to block him, Though that was fight for the position, he was faster than me, and this should be respected, this is my thinking.

Second: temperature and tire wear are not shown during the race like u can see during the practice or Qualy, this can be seen when u ride in the pit, than u can see how much u wear your tires.

Thx for explanation Joja.

Been my pleasure.

I hope that we will have a lot of good races here, as this was.
