Hey racefan...this is us finishing at Daytona last night. You were scored as finishing ahead of me but I clearly beat you to the line. Good racing anyway.
JLBowlerI would have a chat with the three guys that passed you in qualifying. They had to notice something wasn't right and to say nothing about it is just wrong.
I had to try to get connected 5 times before it took hold and got connected. Then last race (with chance to place top 5 ) disconnect. Hope you're connection issues don't rub off, tez. LOL. I haven't had any connection issues since October really.
Hmm...thats odd. You may want to bring that to the attention of the race director and see what he has to say about it. I noticed some very slight lag last night, so maybe that caused my car to appear to be behind its actual position? Or maybe it just cased a goof up in the scoring system and you should have had the spot. Either way,good racing 👍
So you don't score any points if you show up and race in the incorrect car right?
D1 why you no like cappuccino?
I finished last a minute down, really?
If I'd shown up in an X1 then last place would be assigned for sure.
It was just a question so I can fully understand the rules. I showed up in the wrong car once by accident...I had the 2 premium Aston's confused and accidentally showed up in the wrong one and was told I would not receive last place points.
It's all good, it's not about the points.

For someone that's not concerned about the points, you sure seem to be concerned about the points ...
Fixed it, no points awarded.
qwietstormI wasn't saying don't award yourself points, I was asking to clarify the rules. It may be in the 1st post and I just missed it, so I was asking. No need to get defensive...geez.
Why would I care how many points YOU score? I'm not in your division and your point total doesn't affect me one bit. PMS much?
My guess, foot down, swear about the car not accelerating turn left, turn right

That would certainly have helped me out 👍 I didn't tell the story to put any pressure on them, but more to remind people you need to be aware of what's happening, tell people it's okay to say are you on the right tires or in the right car and to elicit a laugh.
Got to tell you, my laugh when I realized what I'd done, was genuine I could easily have gotten all 🤬 ask my wife, but bottom line, is it's my responsibility to make sure I'm set up to race the correct race

Does it get any clearer than that? I asked the question. Instead of answering the question, you seemed to get butt hurt and made it sound like I was implying you shouldn't get points. I thought it was a legit question but apparently not.
For future reference, anyone wanting rules clarification, if it's not in the 1st post you better guess at your best judgement because asking will get you flamed and fingers pointed at you.
And why would he need to make a gesture to "appease" me? He never offended me. I simply asked a question. Instead of making a gesture next time, try answering the damn question.

Contrary to what you might think, no one can pick up on what you meantto say based on text alone. If you have a question, ask it clearly. You could have simply said, "I was under the impression that starting the race in the wrong car would result in no points for that race. Is this correct?" Instead you implied that Kcheeb should not receive points because you did not receive points. I know I'm not the only one who read that way.
