Ok short summary from me:
Server Problems where really bad yesterday... This has to be better, but i know SMS is on it.
To the Race itself: The first Race we tried didn't even start because Darksi wasn't able to continue and some of us crashed too.
So next attempt with 5 Minutes Training: When the Race started we had no Textures from vegetation and also some other objects where missing. In Lap one then the Server crashed. Was a bad moment when the car in fron of me suddenly stopped ^^
3rd and last Attempt: Only a Race session. This time everything went well. I lost 2 places after the start in turn 2 because someone spun in front of me. So had to brake and let 3 guys pass. No problem anyway Then my race was going on and on with a bit of batteling. Was quiet fun. Then there where only 15 Minutes left and i requested my pitstop on the S/F Straight. Checked my Pit Strategy and also that all tires would be changed (see above). Everything looked good. I was on P1 at this moment.
Then my Pit Stop came. I drove into the Pit and ... whoooosh! ... they didn't do anything! They just lifted my car and let it down again and i had to drive out of the Pit - no tire Change at all! I'm 100% sure that my strategy was ok! I lost only two positions. Was on P3 after this, but then @Dama_The_Crow crashed with a backmarker and was really slow.
I could've overtook him but i had a bad feeling about that so i lost 1-2 seconds every Lap just because i felt bad overtake him. Then he drove into the Pit and i was on P2. Now the worn tires showed their bad side: I was still much slower. (around 1 Second per Lap for the last 4 Laps) and P3 came near. But not near enough, i placed 2nd anyway with ~10 Seconds before position 3.
Beside the Server Problems and the stupid Pit Crew who didn't changed my tires (urgh) it was a great and clean Race for me! I had much fun and it was the first Race in RSR for me where i didn't had any crash or in incident. Just 2-3 times i braked too late (in Fog) and two times i lost my rear a bit. But i was able to catch it everytime.
