Did an endurance event in iRacing for the first time this weekend and it was an absolute doozy, complete with radio comm problems and all! Definitely need to do one of these again, and it was a lot more fun than a regular sprint race once we got all the bugs worked out.

Second race of the night on https://lowfuelmotorsport.com was on the Oulton Park track in F3 cars. Just three racers -- all three of us from the previous race.

The guy in first was insanely fast, but inconsistent. They led the race for 11 laps, he was so fast that he pitted for fuel and I didn't pass him. But in lap 11, he crashed so hard that he was a DNF.

The guy behind me is a friendly person that I have raced a few races with. He's really fast too, but I kept him barely in my rearview mirror. By the end of the race, he was pretty close and would have taken P1 if he had not had minor incidents.

I won! P1! Yay!

Tonight's race in https://lowfuelmotorspot.com was on Oulton Park (Island layout) in a Formula Trainer. There were only four racers and I got on podium. Yay! I also drove safely and increased my Safety Rating.

Tonight I did a race on Oulton Park Classic in https://lowfuelmotorsport.com. I qualified P1, but that was because no one else came out to qualify.

The person behind me ran into me during the start and that stunk.

But what was worse was that I forgot to fuel up my F3 car and had to pit in lap 8. I was in P3 with a solid 6-7 second lead over P4. I lost it all after the pit. Stinks. Lesson learned.

Tonight I decided to work on my https://lowfuelmotorsport.com license and raced two races online. Both were on Oulton Park, but different variants of the track.

The first race was in a Sprint Race car and it was raining. This was the first time I've ever raced in the rain in Automobilista 2 and it was crazy. I started P5 and ended up P3 on podium.

There was two nearly immediate infuriating incidents with the same person on track. They rejoined unsafely and crashed into me. After regaining their control they lost control just a bit up the road and then rejoined unsafely again and hit me again! Ugh.

A YouTube short I made of the incidents:

This same person then spun out and reversed into another person damaging their car enough that they had to pit along with my pit. We both were able to get our cars fixed and return to the race.

Karma is awesome though because a few laps later that person that almost took out two people lost control and smashed into a wall so hard that they had to retire to the garage. It was satisfying to see.

My second race only had two people. The other person lost control so badly half-way into the race that they wrecked their car and left. So, yea, I got my first race win. Ha!
