Nooooo !! :'( lost connection when i went to leave my pitbox
Dont believe it, i was loving that.
Was enjoying a cracking race despite all the weather could throw at us. It felt like a proper Le Mans endurance race, making tyre guesses, watching the weather, moving off line to cool my wet tyres etc.
Ran 3rd G2 for a long time after several people had early spins or got caught in the 'proper' gravel traps here, myself included !
Was on soft wets from the start even though i think i should have picked hard wets but the track said flooded so took softs.
Within 2 laps they were overheating big time on the straights as had only test dry and hard wet tyres, so it was a constant case of keeping them cool offline. Enjoyed an early battle with andy eves but then my rears reached 'hot glass' proportions and the car even started swaying on the Mulsanne
I dived in the pits as the weather got brighter and brighter and thought/hoped that the damp may have dropped enough to use slicks....oh no !
Came out the pits and tippy toed around for a whole lap including 20secs lost in a gravel trap as the car was like bambi on ice. Damn..thought it was a smart move with track drying and sky turning blue.
Anyway decided to pit again and put intermediates on and hope for the best until my next fuel stop but just as i exited the pit box i got an instant 'connection lost with host' message :'(
Cracking race track, brilliant event and good turnout. (24)
Hope everyone else had more luck and a good race.
