[Michael Butler]

James and I got shunted to the back of the grid right off the bat and that often causes a level of frustration that must be managed to avoid compounding the situation but he handled it very well.  He passed me on the first lap, courtesy of a his 1 sec/lap better lap time!  I was in mid pack with him for quite a bit and finished two spots behind, about 6 secs in arrears.  I saw him handle quite a few tough situations as there were a couple of mid packers who were um aggressive to put it nicely.  Anyways, I did not realize his age at the time and now that I know, I am very impressed with his composure and maturity.  Well done!  By the way, this sport is fun for all ages...I have 55 years on young James and I'm having a blast too.

Oh good, I'm not the oldest one here.

James has significantly lowered the average age around here, I would imagine.

I'm 54, how bout you Russ (my fellow "American" Sim Racer)?
