My average race time (obviously depends on grid starting position) was 1:28.5 with a clean start and 1:29.9 with a “poor” start, so the throttle-failure bug cost more than a second! I managed to win one of those races but could only manage 3rd in the other, I gained 10 points whilst the winner (who had a similar number of points to me prior to the race) gained 60 points, so the throttle-failure bug cost me 50 points, not a big deal but irritating.
 * 5 OMP races at Catalunya.
 * 2 start-of-race throttle failures!

As I’ve previously written, there’s nothing you can do about it (repeated tapping of the throttle [and brake] before the event [which I now do EVERY event] has no effect) and you have no idea it’s going to happen as throttle/brake presses are not registered (not displayed on-screen) until the light turns green, so the first you know about it is when the light turns green and you’re sitting there with your thumb on the screen and all the other cars are gone!
