Tried the blue club controller but it felt a bit ropey. Didn’t get used to it during this race.

| Position: | 3rd |
| Crashes | 0 |
Finals!
Blue Lane
Was that really my lap time? Maybe I looked at the wrong column. Either way, finally got the hang of this controller to have a clean, fast race. Everyone behind me crashed at least once.
| Fastest Lap | 8.73s?! |
|---|---|
| Laps: | 12.00 |
| Position: | 2nd! |
| Crashes | 0! |
Red Lane
Close this lane instead of brown. Very slow marshall when I crashed in the loop due to the guide not centering.
Wasn’t quite on the pace of the leaders but might have pressured someone into a mistake later on. One crash is all it takes to go from hero to zero!
| Fastest Lap | 9.09s |
|---|---|
| Laps: | 12.00 |
