Bit of a mess today, but hopefully we can all learn something from it. From my side: (1) never trust that the Z4 will take the same corner in the same manner 2 laps in a row. Weight shifting it is still a mystery! (2) remember to brake earlier after slip-streaming (sorry Chip, and well played on that one, avoiding the crash that would have been caused by my foolish mistake). (3) don't pick a car only because it seems faster, but pick the one that's most fun.
H1: i climbed a bit in the start due to some crash. Then I tried to be consistent and it kinda worked. H2 was also ok, i think i was 5th for most of it, but lost it to Urlauber in the last lap. Well played. Then H3 was the one with the infamous pile-up on the straight. Didn't know what to do, things went down really fast and I saw a gap which I managed to squeeze through (barely), following MinDer. I was tapped by Chip who was spinning and I was sent into the wall at 200kph but somehow managed to bounce back on track and brake before the chicane!
Don't think it would have helped if I had braked. Offcorsa was on my rear bumper and Dima on his.. Best I could hope for was I could get past..
Otherwise, had some tight racing with a few people pretty much in every heat. Mostly the same people: Urlauber, Chip, MinDer, Ed for a couple laps, Zombie, Fragmonkey in H1.. Not a bad evening, all things considered.. Let's see the points, though
