GPL, My first Online Races...

Well i finally done it...

First one was held at Kyalami (novice), we were 5 pilots, to my surprise, i
qualified first and won the race! There wasn't any warping that i
experienced.

Second race was held at Zandvoort (Pro Short), 12 or 13 pilots were there, i
qualified 7th., spun out at Tarzan, climb my way back to finished 4th. A
little warping from front cars was seen from my***pit. About 6 or 7 cars
had accidents or spun, and i while checking a little too much my mirror i
let a car pass me, he then went to spin out again a few turns later. I
noticed that perhaps 5 pilots disconnected, couldn't tell which as the host
ended the race quickly.

Third race was the nicest. Kyalami (Pro Short), qualif. 5th., finished 2nd.
There was quite a few battles for position all race long. In the last lap
pilot #2 and 3 had a little bump that allowed me to pass them in the
"esses", making it easier to finished as a runner up.

To sum it up, i shouldn't have waited for so long to race GPL online as
other pilots to this NG's have said. I thought i was too slow, but that's
not the point i guess, i had to stay on the track, be a clean racer and
voil. I used VROC for those race and felt that i didn't had the experience
to host such race, next time i'll try that side.

C. Giroux.
