[R]FCRX7 Wins SSR11 All-Night I in 24hour game

In the 24hour game (Maybe here), I used the FCRX7 for many races.

So I decided to enter the race-modified version in the All-Night I.

   Game: 24hour
   Day: 102
   Date: Dec 29, 2002
   Car: red/gray Mazda [R]FC RX-7 GT-X
   Race: SSR11 All-Night I  Endurance Race
   Qualified: 1st 1:53.969new  (+2.549) Cr20,000
   Result: 1st
   Money: Cr150,000
   Prize-Car: green [R]Silvia LM

   Results:

   1st:* [R]FCRX                56:37.129<--new 24hour time
   2nd:  [R]R32GT-R'91            +32.697  (57:09.826)
   3rd:  [R]NSX-R LM GT2          +48.050  (57:25.179)
   4th:  [R]EXIV 200GT           +123.047  (58:40.176) 1 lap
   5th:  [R]Lancer EvoIV GSR     +184.696  (59:41.825) 1 lap
   6th:  [R]Lantis TypeR         +201.662  (59:58.791) 1 lap

   Pits:  15
   fl(19): 1:48.769new

   lap 1   1:57.635
   slowest  non-pit   (9)  2:00.741
             next     (11) 2:00.028
   fastest pit laps   (15in)  2:13.320
                      (16out) 1:53.873
   slowest pit laps   (15in)  2:13.320
                      (16out) 1:53.873

Although I started in first place, I struggled for the first two laps, finally getting a slim lead on the second-place Skyline.

Two bad accidents on lap 9 and 11 greatly reduced my lead, meaning that when I went for my pit stop on lap 15 I actually dropped back to 3rd place. I managed to regain the lead on the road, however, and after that both cars pitted another time.

I had no more outrageous accidents, and eventually won by a healthy margin, lapped the EXIV 200GT right near the end of the race, leaving only two cars finishing on the same lap.

In contrast to many endurance races in Gran Turismo, this one was almost exciting. For example, I lapped my first car (the Lantis) while I was still only in second place.

I won Cr150,000, and a green Silvia LM.

Once again, for your analytical enjoyment, I here present all 30 lap times...
