54. True but probably meh story:

I was playing Forza 7 singleplayer earlier this week and there was this one endurance race that I had to win (or at least get a podium) in order to get the championship but I estimated it lasts about 3 hours, which is much longer than the next longest endurance race (which I beat in a little under 2 hours).

Forza 7 has BGM for the menus and outside of races but not during a race. So I decided, to see away the hours of racing without music (previous Forza games that I played had such BGM for in-race), I decided to pull up some BGM from Youtube that I played from my laptop while I was racing (I played with a controller, so meh).

I played TheFatRat's 1 hour megamix and once that was over (about a third of the way through the race), I switched to a playlist of Asphalt 8 OST. Not much happened in the next two hours, but as I approached the end of the race, I noticed that the Asphalt playlist was also close to finishing.

So I decided to race against the playlist to see if I could finish the race before the playlist ended. The playlist reached its last song while I was on the second-to-last lap, so this was a bit intense for me.

I was heading down the final stretch as the last song of the playlist played its final phrase, and managed to cross the finish line a few seconds before the song played its last notes. And just as the song played its last note and dropped off and ended, the Forza BGM came back on. I couldn't believe the timing of it all
