Awesome race, but also very difficult. I had several contacts, none of them intentional nor too much of consequences fortunately. I have to say that the night conditions, the limited gap between opponents, the lack of space and that MONO driving which is a bit fuzzy, was complex to manage. But at the other hand it made the broadcast really enjoyable to watch, with @t0daY and @TonyR comments, that's a masterpiece. In any case, cheers to everyone for giving such a great spectacle without major incidents. :cool:

I'm fine with 'PJ', but for the broadcast you can keep 'PatatorJohn' if you wish, as it add a little fun when you guys struggle to pronounce it :hilarious:

Dama, how is your chair "fixed" to the pedals? When I had an office chair on wheels and my old desk, I would put a heavy box behind my office chair, so it wouldn't be pushed backwards when braking.

Well firstly i have to say to @2scoops them first 5 laps were great. Then we synchronise spun... So i dived in to the pits at the end of lap 6 in my ultimate wisdom thinking i can claw at least 2 spots back with just 30 solid laps. Unfortunatly i pushed passed my limitations and that was that...but i completed my goal to finish.. Now on to placing next race.

I think we need to work together more @jonnotheone as it was costing us a lot of time and we lost touch with the group in front of us :(

Pedals were fine, I fixed then on the board and with three nails fixed chair. But the problem was in wheel attached to desk. I didn't practice that much to see that when in real "battle" I would pull a little bit harder, whole desk will be moving. That just happened in race last night. :penguin:
So, this morning I brought back wheel to playseat Challenge and I am happy again.

@TonyR @t0daY I just watched the full stream and have to say "Vielen dank für ein sehr tolles Kommentar!" It was just like watching a race on tv and loved the post-race interviews!

It turned into quite the lonely race for me after a few small battles at the start (sorry for the few bumps @Dama_The_Crow). When I entered the pits it said my pit box was occupied by @t0daY however the stop itself seemed to work anyway. I was held for what seemed like the right time it takes to change tyres but I didn't hear anything so maybe if the @Admins want to double check my stop @4:00 that it did actually change tyres and I didn't gain an advantage that would be appreciated. I'm happy to accept any penalties if something similar that happened to @ramiboo happened to me and I gained time.

Other than that just a friendly word of advice to @Morvic to try and keep your blocking manoeuvres more preventative and less reactionary (last second) maybe. No harm done, I may have appeared to be a bit further back on your screen @5:50. It was very nice of you to let me through but you didn't have to do that. :)

Not problem at all. I bumped myself few times... alone ;)

I also remembered now, as you mentioned for pitbox, that I didn't also changed tyres. Totally left that unchecked in pit strategy... And I wondered how the hell pitstop lasted so little time :D

as I said, sorry, I thought I was reacting early enough, my mistake :( I'll try and do that earlier next time ;) I did it so early since my rear view mirror make it look like a normal distance, not like a distance of bumper.

@TonyR @t0daY , is it possible for me to have the video from the live coverage? I'm currently running the live coverage and my video in two windows and I'd like to make a video combining the footage. It just looks :cool:

@stolnikas
@FlyingKman what did you mean by calling me "a f**king beast at blocking"? :D I hope i didn't do anything that was not allowed by the rules :)
What I mean is that it was PERFECTION!! Your blocking and taking the inside line at the correct times you did was so good, that I just could not pass you. I was a full second faster as soon as I got away from you but you kept me bottled up in the stolnikas jar and there was just no escape. Perfect driving mate wow.

Also I just want to say all 4 of us wow so good so close battles all the way throughout the race loved it. @Ashnoom @stolnikas @Laiders. A race I wont forget easily.
Well done to @Puffpirat and @Suomy, you two are on another league.
