Just like 2 weeks ago in RTFR-CCCC,also this week we pushed LFS physics to it's limits - this time with extraordinary amounts of aero downforce from a modern F1 car,creating problems for car's suspension. This was also the most powerful car ever used in any RTFR race with it's engine delivering close to 1000 horsepower. This car coupled with the elevation rich Aston Grand Touring circuit,created a set of problems for the drivers - firstly many weren't ready for the challenge (lowest attendance since 48th RTFR XL),secondly - these,who still tried,had difficulties to complete it,resulting in the lowest ever finishing rate in RTFR XL history,as only half of the starters are classified in race results and just quarter crossed the finish line after cheqered flag was displayed.

Number started the race from 2nd row,but with help of huge pull these cars are creating he managed to slip in lead already entering 1st turn and gave up the lead only during pitstops shuffling. At the finish line the croatian celebrated his 1st ever race win in the series with the 5th biggest margin of victory in RTFR XL history,scoring also his 1st fastest lap of the race and 2nd top5 finish (previous best was 2nd place). Mod creator Raigs joined the extended RTFR for the first time and used his advantage to finish 2nd in the race,which is also 2 positions better than previous best result for all the brazilians. Another south american driver finished 3rd - Pablo improved his previous best results in both sessions by 3 positions,qualifying for the race in 2nd position. Despite rolling the car in final lap,the event host still is classified in 4th position,scoring his 26th top5 finish,he was also the only other driver besides winner to lead a lap. And despite the domination in past by scoring 1/3 of all top5 finishes,Finland got just a single top5 finish from this race - brought home by T.Soini in 5th position,which is his 9th top5 finish. There is one more driver left to mention - the polesitter. Gábor scored his 4th pole position,but could not make much use of it and was scored 8th after retiring few laps after reaching half way mark.

* FUN FACT OF THE MONTH :
Just like both previous races with an F1 car (BF1),also this featured race distance with just over 300 kilometers. That resulted in 2nd highest average speed of the race with 231.5km/h,losing only to 46th RTFR XL which featured BF1@KY3B combo.

* CLOCK PITTER OF THE RACE :
From high forces on the suspension,everyone was forced to fix damage,extending all pitstop times - the shortest was by Nando Lonso,who stopped for 15 seconds in his pitstop.

* FIELD RUSHER OF THE RACE :
Despite timing out Nando Lonso got himself also in this paragraph - starting 14th he improved himself to 6th position in race results,with a progress of 8 positions he is best in the highest climber chart.

With this ends the RGE 300km race series during 3 days - we're back to shorter races again in nearest future. The combo for next RTFR XL has already beed submitted - it will be the 6th appearance of FZR,putting this car in lead in most used cars chart. The venue is also a return as it's the same track that was mentioned hosting fastest RTFR XL race ever - Kyoto GP Long with Boothy chicane. That's the plan for the tuesday in 4 weeks,but next week in normal RTFR we will race one of the original LFS street legal cars - more details on that in the weekend.
