I thought RUFTARN was supposed to be today because a few key players couldn't make it Friday?

Pics for the banner. Hope one of these is suitable. Couldn't remember which track we are taking this to...
Thanks! I like this one the most because both the car and the name of the track are featured in it. 👍

Why is it that all the best things you do are never on film? I just drive the r32tc around the Nürburgring in the pitch black with the HUD off and it was the best lap of my life.
Edit: I've decided we should have a weekly Nürb track day/night.

Thank you stewards for addressing this issue so quickly.
Luv2Coach, you have been banned from S.N.A.I.L.
Sorry it had to come to this, but you were given more than enough chances. We even made special rules for you and sent you PM's to warn you when you were falling out of line. Unfortunately, drama has continued to follow you both on the track and off, and the events that took place on Sunday night prove that you simply can't or wont' change your mindset. That plus the fact that you are still on probation led to a steward calling a vote on your membership status. The vote did not go in your favor.
On a personally, I'm disappointed that I stuck my neck out for you and even met with you in a lounge to discuss ways to improve your temperament and control your emotions on and off the track. However, it's apparent that you're simply wired a certain way and that's that. At this point, the amount of time and effort exerted by myself and the stewards to discuss you and your behavior has reached it's limit and it's just not worth it anymore. Good luck wherever you decide to race in the future. You no longer have access to any of the SNAIL_DivisionX lounges.

Zero, could you pm me the race/lap of any incidents with coach from this previous Sunday? I'm not going to argue as I trust your judgment, I just find it hard to believe it's come to this. Frankly I'm shocked. Every race I've ever had with coach has been clean and close. Feels like the twilight zone man.

zer0 and kcheeb didn't vote.
A steward asked for the vote and it was 7 yes , 0 no. It involved more than simply a race incident this week - which there was one. The rest should probably be a more of a private matter, but if you were in the D2 Sunday night you already have the replays and you are probably aware of any other issues.

Speaking of practice, what time will it start? I've been having a bad day and I think some intense racing with my SNAIL famiy is able to save my day.

I was never informed of a race complaint against me. I filed one. It was an illegal block move. If it was legal, then it is near impossible to pass on a straight if the car getting passed is allowed the one change of direction after the passing car has any overlap at all.
I self reported the "...bs pass (driver)". After that I did not complain. It is a simple issue between drivers, he just happens to be in the "administration office". I have not been aggressive nor was there any incident filed against me in several weeks.

It's not my judgement that you need to trust because when it comes to Luv2Coach, my judgement has proven to be wrong. I took a lot of heat behind the scenes for allowing Luv2Coach to stick around as long as he has. Myself and others have also spent a lot of time trying to help him make it through his "last chance" probation so that he could rejoin the league without any black marks.
We met in a lounge with him to talk to him in person and we sent him PM's. We practically begged him to not worry about results until he was off probation. Instead, we asked him to just focus on keeping he nose clean and avoiding any drama. It just didn't work out.
The bottom line is that I made it very clear that he had a magnifying glass on him so he had to be on his best behavior and be squeaky clean. I even advised him that, "The best strategy for you would be to not give anyone any reason to put you up for a vote". Unfortunately, he didn't listen to that advice and even self-reported a violation he made to the stewards.
Basically, the stewards felt that he was neither driving or acting like someone on their "last chance". A vote was called for and the vote was unanimous to ban him. At that point, it was a done deal because the parameters for him to stay in the league or get kicked out had already been set and the power to control either scenario was in the hands of the stewards. They've made their decision and I fully support it.

That's not saying anything...
But I know how you meant it...which sounds very pompous.
D1 is not the breeding ground for racecraft. All divisions have different kinds of drivers. Some will do whatever it takes to avoid contact with others...to the point of running off track before hitting someone. Some will do anything to win.
One group gains respect and the other gains a reputation.
Which type do you feel you are?

So had I not won this week and driven like it was a Sunday afternoon all would be good. LOL. It is very relevant. I have no issues with those guys and a lot of others here.
I have not been aggressive or had any complaints for 4 weeks or so. That means I have been doing as asked, but now I "haven't been driving like a driver on probation". So what does that look like? Don't win even if you are clean?
