I was headed to the last corner with a 0.25 lead on my ghost. I tried to be a pinch conservative and was too conservative. I finished 359th.

Twice I had a 0.4 lead on my ghost after the 2nd hairpin... and my finger slid off the accelerator. 10+ times I arrived at the last chicane with a 0.25 lead, only to lose 0.4 because I wrecked that corner. That taught me that I needed to relax more, not make silly errors!

After about 8 hours of much effort I was able to consistently get in the low 58's. That is an accomplishment for me. I placed very well at one of my worst tracks. Out of about 308,000 people who raced, I did just fine.

So for all those who fell short of their goal, success is sometimes where you find it. Look on the bright side.

It is quite a pressure, when you have 0.little sec ahead of your great run ghost, but few more turns ahead of you...
