Happy anniversary, Mike and whatever excuse you had Pat . I ended up in a single split GT4 race Sunday night with the BMW M4 @ Imola. I signed up with less than 10 seconds left having hit the WITHDRAW (from practice session) seconds prior. I was greeted with a red FORFEIT button and a green JOIN button with the FORFEIT button persistent next to the LOADING message. I was worried that I would get a DNS so finding myself on the grid at the back with 90 seconds to race was a relief. Over 10 minutes to load the session Gridded about 22 of 24, finished P8 thanks to no mistakes other than wheels off, avoiding trouble, good driving by others to avoid hitting me when incidents ahead and a 2 or 3 actual passes. 7 or 8X (tough track limits, might be harder than Hungaroring which I have a hard time with) to drop 0.19 SR hurts a little but not as much as getting taken out and losing both SR and iR. Adding to my broken paddle shifters, my brake potentiometer has been malfunctioning with two bars worth of brake drag occasionally. I haven't wanted to spend the time to completely disassemble and clean but liberal application of electrical contact cleaner hasn't fixed it. The sequential shifter was a glaring disadvantage in a couple of spots at Imola. 3-5 more months of this and I'll be happy to drop $1000+ on a new wheel and pedals, so bright side, I guess. I end the week A4.80 x 1586 and without any iRacing disappointment nor anger.
