Right, some news. Team Toad have withdrawn full time and gedi will still make occasional appearances but this promotes Spurgy to a full time seat.

Im still in guys just thought id free 2 spots up for a new team,il be ready for Rd2
 
No, you can't, he wasn't turning left, if you're going to go for an overtake around the outside you better hope the guy in front has his line changed, because he doesn't have to, you would wanna brake late and stick you're car on the apex to make that work, not hang it around the outside, as that's way too risky.

If someone's on the outside of you, you have no right to run them off the road, none, you HAVE to change your line to allow them room, unless you're more than half a car length infront. And to be fair, he was expecting me there so it wouldn't be risky, but R35 had just shoved his way through on the grass.
 
TOCA Season 5 Official Race Review:

Round 1 - Tsukuba


TsukubaCircuit.jpg

DaxCobra starts where he left off from last season with a stunning pole at Tsukuba from Gokartman's RPM Volvo.

Gokartman sprints away into a lead he'd never lose, as the field check up which causes problems for Atin (Dakro Mazda) as he clips Furi (RPM Volvo), who in turn clips Carb (DBC Mazda), which forces Joe (One Man Mazda) wide and Dax off.

The field funnel through the second hairpin with Dax still struggling to get back on the road after DK (Monster Energy Ford) starts fighting Furi.

R35 crashes early on, his aggresive driving and scrap with Dax would be heatedly discussed post race.

TsukubaCircuit_4.jpg

VTEC Power!!! Dax and the Team Dynamics Honda's of Haitch and Chris.

TsukubaCircuit_5.jpg

TOCA's biggest WTF moment. A mystery problem causes Chris's Honda to veer right straight into his team mate Haitch, wiping both Dynamics cars out on the spot.

Spurgy (Triple7 Volvo) in the huge scrap that lasted all race for the 2nd to 5th spots. Atin would claim 2nd from Spurgy, Joe and Carb right behind.

Gokartman wins TOCA Season 5 Round 1 at a canter.

Race Result - R35 Skyline has been excluded and all drivers move up one place.

And I know to well.
 
I missed out on a lot, testing with Dax tonight however. 👍
 
uh oh, seems alot has happened since ive fell asleep, il admit the majority of divebombs were mistakes (braking too late) that il be happy to own up to, i did dive bomb dax and spurgy, the second one was pretty horrific, the second incident, i was going to take the inside on spurgy, at the speed i was going and how close i was when you shut the door on me really nowhere else i can go, and when you go that wide dax and im already on the line im not obligated to leave you much space anyway, and i found it pleasant how with all your fancy videos you failed to show the one where you shoved me completely off track in r1 and you even admitted it was deliberate?

Seen that on replay, but R35, you were waaaay too aggressive last night. By far.

reminds me of my early nsx days :S dont worry, if i race again i will be cleaner i promise that :) as i came in only as a 3rd driver late on i have had next to no testing time, i was inexperianced with car and track, not making excuses as i was aggresive. but i see all of this about me and i would quote what dax said "why cant everyone be as clean as us 2" or something like that if your atleast gonna scorn me for it dax admit to your own mistakes also because that was alot worse than any single thing i done the entire night
 
After chatting to Dax earlier, I believe that he said that he punted you off R35 out of frustration because of the dive-bombing.

i know, he said that to me but is that really an excuse?
 
R35 - As I said to Akmuq, if someone's on the outside of you, you ARE obliged to give them room unless you're more than half a cars width infront, something most people don't seem to understand in racing.
 
TOCA Season 5 Official Race Review:

Round 2 - Tsukuba


TsukubaCircuit-1.jpg

Race 2 and the first reverse grid event of the season was sure to throw up fireworks. It didn't disappoint!

TsukubaCircuit_1-1.jpg

4 abreast, 3 abreast, how many TOCA cars can you fit into one corner sir? Everyone barring Team Dynamics wanted to know...

TsukubaCircuit_2-1.jpg

A sudden suspension failure caused by contact spun matty in the middle of the pack, Dax was one of the unlucky cars caught in the smoke storm. The Nissan retired on the spot.

TsukubaCircuit_3-1.jpg

A flat spotted tyre for Chris puts him off at the hairpin, putting him tt the rear of the pack.

TsukubaCircuit_4-1.jpg

Furi tries going for the lead on Haitch who heroically defends his place and keeps the lead.

TsukubaCircuit_5-1.jpg

3 laps down, 17 to go and all 13 runners are still within a straightaway of each other.

TsukubaCircuit_6-1.jpg

R35 leads a DBC charge to the front accompanied by Spurgy as Furi and Haitch get shuffled out. Carb later escapes into a lead that would last the rest of the race.

TsukubaCircuit_7-1.jpg

A second large group of cars as Haitch defends hard as he can. Truly thrilling stuff, although Joe later crashes and also gets taken out by Fraiser.

TsukubaCircuit_8.jpg

Carb proves the penguin still has it, as he takes the win!

Race Result - R35 since excluded from result, and Frasier given a 10 second penalty.

I can upload way more of you R35. Every time I was on your outside you would just turn into me and push me off the 🤬 road.

when I was behind you, you were moving about 2 or 3 times per straight to block me.

IMO it requires a ban.

Leaning on me each corner, slamming your way through the field, you obviously have NO idea what clean driving is.

ask any of the v8 people what i do, to defend i always move to the inside line, you can upload as much as you want but i still dont see you admitting to your mistakes instead you are still stepping up your efforts to have me removed? you arent perfect either and you sure showed that letting your frustration get the better of you, yet your putting up all these nice videos of everything ive done, and do you see me trying to embarrass you? and you just need to pipe down if you think you were exhibiting a masterclass in clean driving

I'm sorry mate, but if you're going to pull that card even when Gedi and JB have both made comments about your driving, it isn't going to work.

I've spoke to people in V8's and each one agrees with me so I wouldn't do down that route.

Yes I pushed you off the track, because each time I passed you CLEANLY, you would slam into the side of me into the penultimate corner, or push me off the 🤬 track, so in the end I thought I'd push you off before you took me off again.

Just getting rid of a danger to everyone else.
 
R35 a good phrase I heard from one of Aussie V8Supercars comentators (Neil Crompton I think) - "If your gonna play hardball it's gonna get bounced back at ya". I.e if your going to drive dirty and repeatedly punt someone off expect them to get tired of having to take all the time and give you a taste of your own medicine...

Edit: Exactly my point here.
