wet race

another messy evening. first i started a qualifying session to get a real starting position. surprisly, i got the first place although the opponents are quite strong on single laps. i start the race session but gtr keeps starting the session over and over again. ok, i restart gtr and jumped direct into the start grid. it was wet with low rain and the forecast was dry. to have more fun, i started from the end of the field. it was really cool to see those 24 cars ahead on this wet track. i passed 5 or 6 cars within one lap and then the track started to dry. what an experience! i really love this changing conditions in gtr. after lap 4 i was on first place with a couple of secounds ahead. in lap 5, the line was quite dry, my car became more and more unstable, my rear tires were above 100 degree and driving on the wet part of the track did not help very much. so i decided to pit after lap 6. but a few meters after hocheichen my right rear tire was gone. with more than 15 km to go i was not really sure if it is a good idea to try to reach the box but just a couple of meters later the left rear tire was in the very same condition. race over, what a pity. but it was a great experience and with a 9:01 on this semi wet track i was not really angry.
