rFactor 2 I'm out of commision for a while

Hi all,

I've had an echo taken at the hospital of my shoulder, and it turns out I have a tear in a tendon there as a result of falling off my bike a few months back.
All this time I kept sim racing because I thought it was only bruised. So it turns out it's more severe than that.

I'm advised not to put any strain on it for about 3 months. So I'm out of commission for a while for racing.
This is also a good opportunity for me to recharge the sim racing battery because I've been an admin for 6 years non-stop now. That means I'm going to take a vacation from sim racing altogether for a few months after my current duties are completed and will probably be back around March 2023.

See you all later!

Best wishes for a speedy recovery. Hard to believe it's been 6 years since we started this adventure. You've been an awesome admin and SRO is grateful. You are a fast and fair competitor and I look forward to racing you in 2023.

 

You should be on stage man!

Thanks for your good wishes and I hope you and your loved ones have a great Christmas and new year too!

 

Thanks Mark. Yeah, I can't believe it has been 6 years already. It will be fine, it just takes a while when you're not 20 anymore

 

When are going to see you racing with us again Laurent

 

I'm learning the piano now

 

Thanks Flaviu, I will be back when I'm free of pain, that will mean it's healed.

 

No, for real. That's my new hobby.
I have to keep my arm below 90 degrees without strain.

 

Thanks Arnie ...

 

So I will try once again to become the best sim-racer in my street from March 4 onward, when my latest series will start: BTCC 1990 Championship.
