Round 9 - Laguna Seca [Sep 23rd]

Had to write this, even if late...

Now I know that even this win didn't keep Yves from wrapping up the championship already.

I felt strange winning this race.

I nearly binned it like three times, but I somehow survived all my shenanigans to be able to fight for the win.

Crossing the line, I had mixed feelings, as I had just won the race, but kinda "robbed" Juha of his.

I say robbed since it was no silent thief at work, rather a clumsy burglar.


Before the end of the race, I knew I wasn't trying by all means to get past Juha.

But not trying at all would've been mean/unfair to everyone else:

1. To Juha, who gave it his all to win
2. To all other drivers, who were racing and could've won
3. To those people that watched the race and wanted to see a fair fight until the end

So I just tried with my usual driving skills and cleverness to get into the lead, without trying something stupid.

OK, I know this is way passed due and accept every reprimand for it.

But I finally added a Laguna report HERE.

Still without pics, but those will follow.

Your reprimand is having the article released straight to VHS, er, the Archives section of the forum

Nice one. Some good humor inside fo' sho'

Some pics have now been added to the Laguna report.

"Gründlichheiter"?
Did you mean the word "Gründlichkeit"? The "gründlich" a bit further down is also missing the "ü", maybe the word "Pünktlichkeit" stole theirs

I also want to mention the usage of "ein toller Superheld". If you put "der" instead of "ein" before it, the "toller" loses the "r" and it turns into "der tolle Superheld".

In any case, I like your reports a lot(and yes, also when I am not doing well, okay)!
