      my team all cried after finishing Daytona 24 last night, we started in P13, got sent to the back after an early spin and some issues with our starters wheel. We fought for 19 hours to get to P4, Then spent the remaining 5 keeping it consistent and clean. The racing is definitely real. Such a good feeling to have the hard work pay off.

      @@TMCRacing Us too, our first race together was fun. Started pretty much last in GT3, had bad luck getting punted a few times by some impatient LMP2s netting us 1.5 hours of total repairs. Our Huracan was all beat up and running 6 seconds slower but we crossed the line at P13. It felt so damn good to just cross that line at the end

      And even if the racing wasn't real (but it is), after all, you're doing something you love with friends. I don't need anything more real than that.

      I understand that it’s takes skill and lots of work but u can’t rlly call it REAL racing u can’t get the risk from a computer ur life isn’t on the line if u make a mistake but I can’t say it ain’t hard for computer racers it takes lots I mean lots of practice

    Shit.. can't say the emotion isn't real. I did the same thing but in a real car. You try and try and work and work and dream and throw money at it and finally you win one. I cried like a baby on the return road. I sat in the car for 5 minutes after I parked it just trying to soak it in. And then dad crawled in the car with me when he got back to the hauler and he was all emotional and I started the water works again. It's a wonderful feeling. Pride. Satisfaction. Relief. Joy. Excitement. Nothing like it.
