Know what?
I've also seen the replay and I guess I found the cause:
I did brake at the usual point, from which I should be able to make the turn, but 2 factors made me overshoot it.
1: My automatic gearbox decided to shift up exactly at my braking point, moving it a few metres forwards.
2: On that very time Anhuin was infront of me at a lower speed, steering left to avoid him, right to be able to make the turn (Huge mistake that one). Brakes lock up, nowhere to go, collision inavoidable.
So I could've (should've) done 3 things: Get a manual, not steering when braking and I should definately not panick as I did now...

ok lets go through this...
@TMM: sad to hear that you quit, but I can understand your decision.
@fjhoekie: Penalty for you: You start out of the pits and have a drive through penalty.
@everyone else: since TMM has quitted, for some proper reasons, I want to sit together with all of you and discuss, how we can make things easier and better for everyone. Please share your opinions on your experience so far. Please tell us, how you want your racing league to be from now on.(this includes also TMM...you could tell us, what exactly you want, too)

ok guys here is the first lap crash that costs 2 drivers his race:
https://www.youtu...e=youtu.be
pls guys dont push that much in the first lap(s) the reasons are more than obvious:
1. cold breakes
2. cold tyres
3. much dirty air
..
..
..
and one very important point what you clearly see in the video. You just got NO place for mistakes.

It's just from sooooo far back form where i am, my ~75m wasn't far off! To me it looks like he's beyond the 100m board when he starts to brake, way way way beyond where you can make the turn on Lap1 in the best of conditions, let alone being that close to another vehicle. It's completely killing knowing i had a faster car than than him, Jihardy and ryant Just so many questions and complains in my mind over it.... grrr 
Goddamn i need to stop watching this replay... hitting me at ~160 is just ridiculous, arggghhh...

Fun race for me anyway since me and stahli had an epic full race duel Sorry if I was a bit aggresive on the final lap stahli, I just wasn't happy that it looked like you were taking Anhuin's slipstream.
I have found the league very fun so far, I haven't really had any problems with it, then again I have avoided accidents and haven't had any connection or steering wheel problems (thank god)
Congrats Anhuin on taking your first race win, you drove a nice race
Shame that your quitting TMM but I can understand your frustration and I hope you still come to races regularly
Overall great race, onto Bahrain!!!!!!

Ok, guys. The race was nice. Anhuin won due to being quite fast and having the best tactics. Stahli and jihardy had an intense fight until the last corner. But the race didn't start as intended as TMM aslmost crashed Anhuin out in corner one. In corner 3 TMM got crashed out himself by fjhoekie, who lost the control in the braking zone. After that the action was calmed down a bit. ryant crashed out in Lap 24, but he secured half points with that performance.

nice! maybe a way to improve this is to reduce the race distance maybe so more people might join, atm i am quite a way off and if more people might join then there is a greater probability there is someone as bad as I am in the race (this is just a suggestion, I dont care if its implemented or not)
and....
Is there a way of connecting your PS3/4 controller to this? atm I'm using my keyboard, to little success so far (or maybe because I'm shit )

Even if it is not 2013-ish, I setted everything on the server, that the race will be at night...(since the tarmac is way too dark, and also it is quite cool). If you are against driving at night, or if you have questions, please tell/ask me.

I think it'll be pretty cool to drive at night. Hopefully I can make it.

Question:
Starting from the pits, how does that work? Do I have to drive the formation lap and then pull in, or clikc go to track during the formation?

You will stay in the pits for the qualifiying(like trek, who still has to serve his last penalty), you will both go with us in the formation lap and just drive in the pits and start after the first driver passed the first sector checkpoint...should be after around 20 sec.
