Race 1 results:
Flaky
Driver +15.9
Rally (Yay) +20.1
Dan +20.5
Mel +46.7
Jammy +50.9
Ruz +51.8
Penalties: none I'm aware of
Race 2:
Flaky
Jammy +2.6
Driver +15
Mel +22.5
Rally +25
Dan +35.3
Ruz +1:26
Penalties:
I've only been made aware of one, Lap 8 involving Mel and Flaky. However, due to lag I'm not able to make a decision, and as of such both drivers will be interviewed by PM. If possible, please send the replays as well. Postscript: after looking through the replay again, I see no collision between the two cars. FlakyPastry is holding his race line as he was ahead, which he's entitled to.
Race 3:
Flaky
Driver +12
Jammy +23.1
Rally +36.8
Dan + 56.1
Ruz +1 Lap
Mel: DNF <50%
Penalties:
MrMelancholy15 will incur a one week ban for the rages during Race 3. I understand some can lose his cold, I've done so several times, but this doesn't give one the rights to destroy the race for the rest. Watching through the replay I noticed slight lag on Ruz but this doesn't explain the incident at 4 minutes involving these two drivers. Waiting for red cars to come around before rejoining right in front of them making them crash is by far the worst of racecraft I've seen yet. As with Braun's heavy arguing you're given the week to think it over, and will be allowed to race in round 6.
This incident will from now on not be treated on the thread. If you feel the need to do so, the social club is the place to do so.

To make a long story short we also had something happen at Deep Forest which basically made this place a battlefield. Almost every time I checked the thread until about a week later there was at least one mod just waiting for an opportunity to close the thread (I felt), I don't want to risk that happening again

You don't need to.. Deep Forest meant a huge decrease in competitor numbers, which have been slowly but steadily dropping ever since, and maybe this latest race has been the death blow (I know some was not able to race for whatever reason).. In any case this next round sees the same survival criterias as WRC did: 6 or less = close and I can spend the time I used to save up for Friday on something that pays off better (like qualifying for WRS, for an example).

How many racers left Morten?

Aboe certainly left after DF. Braun did too but I've been talking with him lately. Even if that's only two names it's a big % considering the numbers, Friday we were down to 7, only thanks to Ice joining just before this round..

Just a word of warning: I don't know if it applies to Clubman as well, but Special Stage Route 5 is prone to show black screen at race start. If that happens to you, just PM me on PSN with "screen" as subject, and the race will be red-flagged and started over with one or two laps deducted. 2 Black Screen restarts per race will be made, if a third occurs the race will start anyway. If you happen to have a black screen, do not move as you're moving blindly and may cause a major crash. I've forgotten to check how many laps to race, but the OP will be edited accordingly, hopefully tonight

I know this is a little late, but I would like to apologize for my part in the incident with Mel at Deep Forest.
Also, I had considered returning, but wasn't 100% sure about it. I think GT racing is a better fit for me. I ran the Monza round of TDZDave's World Endurance Championship without a major incident. Oh sure, I remember going door-to-door with another car at La Roggia, but that didn't result in a crash for either of us.
Anyway, if anyone in the Clio Cup is interested in a good touring car series, I recommend Scaniabebe's STCC, a revival of the old Super Touring days.

Or, do yourself a favour and save your dignity by not being ridiculous. You've caused more than enough crashes. You had one clean race? Congrats. Tell the world!

You tried locking the entire Premium forum just because they wouldn't ban you, don't preach about dignity.

Honestly guys. Can't you just play the game and if there are problems then PM each other. You know morten hates when you do this, but you do it anyway. You know everyone else hates it aswell. How about you guys realize that no one cares about you problems other then you guys. Go and PM each other instead of making un needed drama.
