Q: 2nd place with bad lap time...i was changing setup before the race and made it worse

R: Normally I would drive close behind Kenny and try to push him to make a mistake, but I made 2 mistakes and lost 2 places. After that I gain one place and drove 3rd till the end. My tires were totally burned and I could hardly finish the race.

Congrats to podium!

Well, I got to watch the race. Good racing and congrats Kenny and the podium. This was my second try with EVO and my wheel and pedals stop working when I go to the grid. Happened at the last race also.

Anyone have this problem before? It seems with an online race, if I'm by myself, everything works fine. But if there are other cars on the grid then my wheel and pedals quit working. They are okay during the practice session but as soon as I go to the grid for the race nothing works. If anyone has heard of this problem please post. Very frustrating...I wanna race darn it. I'm using Logitech Driving Force Pro...but that may change LOL.

Thanks,
Jeff

What a great race (and Day) :)

Qual - It went well, I managed to set my fastest ever time and somehow grabbed pole.

Race - Started ok, thought Marko would get past at turn 1, somehow kept him behind. After the lap 1 fun, I knew Marko was faster over the race distance than me and he pushed me in the first few laps, but I was determined not to make a mistake this time. Somewhere on a lap he made a mistake which let Claudiu into 2nd place and I couldn't pull away at all, we just matched each other lap after lap. When my tyres were getting worn I thought that he would start to catch me, but we still were the same distance away. On the last lap I had my fingers crossed that I didn't make a mistake and I nearly did going into the right hander just before the pit lane. Just managed to avoid going off circuit, then just eased the car to the finish.

My second win of the day (and overall), my first win on a Race 2 Play Series.

Congratulations to Claudiu for 2nd and Marko for 3rd.
