... next target is a race over 2 days. I hope i don't crash already at the first day. It did not go exactly the way i wanted it to go.

First day all went well. I didn't crash that day. I decided to not to race as long as the day before. First day i raced a distance of 3250 Km. I also didn't pass more cars the necessary. Most laps i passed 2 and some laps only 1 car. I tried to keep the remaining time below 90 seconds at all time. Only reached the 90 second limit a couple of times. As a result of this there were less cars in front of me and during the day only a few longer lines of cars.

Day 1: 3250 Km, 0 collisions, 3 times off-track, 0 crashes between bots, topspeed 390 Km/h.

The second day didn't go as planned. I continued the race like the 1st day. At a total distance of 4140 Km i saw on the other end of the long staight (at start / finish) cars passing each other. I slowed down and as expected after the turn there was a crash between bots. I managed to avoid crashing into the first crashed car, but the second car crossed the track right in front of me. I hit this car and this reduced my topspeed to 379 Km/h. I also lost a lot of time. After that i was not able to cach up in time with the other cars.

Day 2: 898 Km (total distance 4148 Km), 1 collision, 0 times off-track, 1 crash between bots, topspeed 390 Km/h (reduced to 379 after crash).

Perhaps i will try this again sometime, but for now it is time to go back to the real world. Of course i will continue playing RR3, but mostly short(er) races like 10-lappers on LeMans :).
