GTC Season 1: Team Finalgear are the Team Champions. Burnsy 3rd, Mischief007 7th

So in the GTC league from www.lfs-lota.net, Team Finalgear finished in first place for the squad championship with only a 12 point difference from the Core Gray team. The Core team had a lot of racers so they split into 4 2-man teams. Fields were 20+ deep and it was some amazing racing throughout the whole series.

Round 7 of the Finalgear LFS Championship Season 6

After a pole grabbing qualification from FireFox, pdanev was constantly behind him, trying to take the first place away from FireFox for the first 5 laps before a pit stop was needed, while MXM was leading geeman and ESPN and slowly pulling away. When FireFox made his pit stop, pdanev found some open track and posted some very fast times to allow him to catch the lead after he made his pit stop on lap 6. After his pit stop, geeman found himself in front of MXM with ESPN right behind him. He seemed to not be able to get away from ESPN until he put a foot on the grass, and ended up in the sand pit, ending his race. With the last lap of the first race ending soon, the phone rang for pdanev, distracting him on the last corner, running him wide into the grass, letting FireFox just slip through for first place. A similar fate awaited geeman as his computer thought that he was sitting idle, and started his screen saver, ending his race too.
Race 1 ended with FireFox in 1st place, pdanev in 2nd and mischief007 in 3rd.

The second race started off with a bang. Geeman, starting second on the grid, got a slow start off the line and most of the cars past him into the first turn where MXM had a spin, but was able to recover. FireFox grabbed the opportunity with that spin to jump into 4th. Later in the first lap, mischief007 had an airborne excursion, ending his race. After that, the race started to calm down with the drivers all hanging on to each other in groups. Pdanev and FireFox fighting one another in first and second respectively until pdanev started to pull away from FireFox. At the end of lap 2, FireFox had a crash that severely broken his suspension and had to pit. This gave 2nd place to geeman for a few laps until FireFox was able to catch up to him and take back 2nd place for the finish, after having good battles with geeman for 2nd place for the rest of the race.
Race 2 ended with pdanev in 1st place, FireFox in 2nd and geeman in 3rd.
