Seeing these GIFs makes me really bummed that I couldn't make it.

I'm somewhat of a Ring specialist even though I don't like it very much as a track.

Touched the grass at the start, luckily I managed not to spin. Don't know what happened at that second corner, FootballFan went flying onto the wall.

Metalmurphy spins, Patau, paskowitz and Round manage to avoid an incident. Close call.

If anyone wants to request gifs just message me, it would also help when making the video as it'll save some time looking through the replay trying to find some excting race moments.
Lap 5, two corners before the Dottinger Hohe (when pask overtook me), I mess up, get two wheels on the grass and pask gets alongside me. Not completely sure how exciting it is from the outside, for me it was desperately trying to steer off the grass while avoiding spinning out :P

My bad ruttyboy. That's a black flag if I ever saw one lol
Hehehe, don't worry about it. It was worth it for the psychological experience. After I'd spun I totally forgot which corner I was on, I couldn't recognise anything in the pitch black. Once I was back on the track I was just accelerating into the darkness thinking, "Shit! do I go left or right?!" :)

Sunhi, if you want to make a comedy gif, please do one from my helmet cam from 18:50 to 19:00 total race time. GHR reverses onto the track in front of me and scares the life out of me :D

External replays missed it, had to use this angle. Close call

That was similar to another incident where I spun off and I couldn't get out of the way fast enough, you ended up with a lot of damage, sorry. The 'Ring is a dangerous place to race.

Bit miffed about BradleyLove's 'overtaking' on lap 1.

I was rammed off the road once and GHR_Gynoug79 twice.

I hope I don't sound like a sore loser but racing good manners are one of the NRL's strengths I think...

We need to start thinking about next race will be. Some suggestions:

For ashk: Prototypes at La Sarthe

Classic Dodge Challenger RM vs Classic Camaro RM @ Deep Forrest

DTM @ Spa again

Karts at Eiger Rain (track start damp and gets dryer. No weather change)

GT1 class cars (GTLM, ZR1/Z06RM, GTR TC, Zonda R, Etc) @ Fuji GT

Lexus LFA vs 430 Scuderia @ Suzuka

Haha cheers ! Didnt want to bring it up as i already had a "excuse" for every single other races i took part in here i think.

@asclepio: I think there should be at least the intention (not saying that the crashes were intentional) especially in such a long race on ther 24h layout of the nordschleife. There is really no need to rush it in the first few corners...

I'd think it would be cool to do some quick 3-4 lap SpecShuffle races with penalties on when we cant come up with an offical type race

I'd vote for the Suzuka race, also love to do karts on monaco

I hold my hands up and admit I made some mistakes on the first lap. I'm not home at the moment so can't check my saved replay but I assure you no contact was intentional. All the same I apologise if I've upset you.

That being said, I spent the majority of the 1st three laps in last place. I decided to pit in and get fresh tyres at the end of lap 2 hoping I could gain time over all. So whilst I made mistakes that resulted in some collisions, you can't blame me for finishing above you.

Again, I apologise if I upset anyone. It was never my intention and last thing I wanted first time out in a NRL race was to be subjected to a personal lynching post-race.

As I said above, don't worry about it too much. But if you think this was a lynching you should have seen the Super GT thread close to release when we started the league. Tempers were really hot back then... Postrace almost always turned into a shouting match.

It is not rain, just wet. I would say that should be around 40 min. If I find it is longer, I will reduce the # of laps.
