Thanks all for the race.
I spent all week and many many laps trying to learn the car and track and hopefully be competitive. I still found myself to be 6-8 seconds off the pace. This did not deter me though, I thought if I can just make it to the end of the 44 laps unscathed then maybe, just maybe I can finish in front of a few that crash / spin out.
Lap 1 was OK, I started at the back and managed to avoid a few cars that had spun.
Lap 2 was eventful at the start having to stop at turn 1 to avoid some parked cars.
It wasn't until near the end of this lap that I realised that Team "The Gamesmen Men" were jealous of Team "The Pagnian Importinators" ladder position and were planning to take us out one at at time starting with their rookie driver Bogor.
As I approached the last chicane Godzilla was sitting there ready to pounce. And pounce he did. Hitting my rear left tyre and causing me to spin hard. Undeterred I waited for a few cars to pass and set about trying to make it back into the race with minimal damage. That's where I saw Godzilla waiting, as soon as I passed he pounced in behind me and started the chase.
He managed to get better speed through Raidillion Eau Rouge and set about catching me on Kemmel Straight. Once he was in front he took the opportunity and pounced again. This time taking out my Engine and front of my car.
Back to pits to hopefully secure my backup car, however the time Penalty was over 240 seconds. With this I bowed out.

Looking forward to the next race, watch out for Godzilla he is a force to be reckoned with.
