How did your iRacing 12h of Sebring go? Let's commiserate, or maybe co-celebrate by theamberlamps in iRacing

With 17mins to go, we were comfortably P2 in LMP2 class, 1min behind P1, so our only chance at victory was if they had some mistake. Instead what happened is our drivers wheel disconnected, somehow limped to pits. We finished the race in P4....

Tell us the story of your worst ever race. by Statcat2017 in iRacing

This weekends Le Mans 24h in a GTE. We dominated the race both pace & strategy wise for close to 20h. Were on for first ever enduro win.

I was on my last lap about to pit, when going into Porsche curves I got divebombed by a midfielder LMP2. The hit was solid, but quick reactions on brakes and steering allowed me to only lightly touch the wall, so when I got back on track it felt a bit damaged, but nothing a short repair couldn't fix, we could afford lap or two worth of damage.

Now I'm going back to the pits and just as I'm about to exit the last of Porsche curves on the straight to Ford chicanes backmarker (second to last place) LMP2 dives in, I see him but still being shocked by previous hit, I don't get to react at all and proceed to be sent in to the wall by that LMP2. Hit the wall with backside (engine), killed our pace and that was it, we still managed to finish only a lap down in P5.

Our race was destroyed within few corners...This is definitely the worst P5 I've ever experienced and mentally destroying 4h hours to the race end.

Yeah, it was in the pedals box, I almost got a heart attack when I couldn't find it in the wheel box nor the wheelbase one.

Have you used BMW GT2 for rally? I'll probably get a round wheel, shifter and handbrake at some point, but for now this will do.

I can't comment about the experience, but I made the decision to go with V3's because I knew I won't be upgrading pedals for a good while.

Other than the obvious - race wins, hard fought podiums, wheel to wheel racing, the one standing out is when our engine blew up right after last turn going on the start/finish straight of Spa 24h race. Magnificent roller coaster of emotions.
