KingSakeryEspacially R35 aka the moving Brick
He was so hard to overtake although he didn´t have the pace. It was so much fun.
So you liked my defensive driving then?
my best lap the full day was a 1:50:3 and I only got in the 50s 2 times xD

A way I've seen done is depending on circumstance half points of the position they were in before d/c stays with them

^^ Im happy with that suggestion R35 if gedi is??Guess it would ease the dissappointment a little
So 9 pts added to Hanc and Nel where were you running when disconnected??💡
May well be worth bringing this idea in as a given rule as with Hanc i fear the frustration of DQ's may drive people away. So 95% race completion (last night = 24 laps) = half points of DQ'd position added to bottom of completed top 10 finishers sound fair??

After the attitude I got, this is why I wanted to think it over in the 1st place,
Bang head bang head!

FYI Gedi and to field yes i feel full points for DC's last night would have been unjust as races expect to be completed i made this clear to you yesterday i still feel this.
I log on to GTP this morning and read R35's idea about half points and think yes with 95% race completion this sounds fair so i suggest it on the thread and you jump down my throat via pm.
You make the final decisions it wasnt me saying this is how it will be just me agreeing with R35's idea, and a reaction to the fact good guys like Hanc will consider quitting the series due to the frustration of being DC'd when in a comfortable position. Its a middle ground i was looking for which i thought was fair.

Put what you said in the pms here you say my suggestions are me moaning no just my views. You pull over in a 25 lap race on lap 1 after the jb!!! comment and tell me via pm you just lost interest after a lap!?! what do you think im thinking while driving round??
Will sort things out via pm just think we are miles apart as to how we want things to go unfortunately.

I´m totally with this Idea. 88-90% completion would be ok for 50% pointz of the position they had directly before DC. (22-23 Laps in this case)
Nel and Hanc where far away of everybody or JB ??
A DC can happen to anyone, even if you cleared your cache.
Is someone connected wireless ??
That would lead to some minor connection issues.
I deleted the cache in the PS3-Browsers of all my accounts and cleared the GT5 cache. Me think they aren´t the same.
@R35: Yes I liked it and I hope you liked it too

It's down to me if I want to quit a race, and yes I did lose interest.
I didn't rage quit I was really calm actually.
Why is me quiting such a big deal all I said was jb and that was it,
I didn't moan at you! I didn't moan via pm! Or on thread as these things happen.
Why have you got it in for me?

This was simply all i was agreeing with 90%/95% completion for half points just backing up R35's idea his not mine.
Thread says "Stewards will discuss" did this take place? As the points went up fairly quickly.

I havent just cant understand why quit after 1 lap from my point of view during the race i was thinking you rage quit because i shunted you can you understand that? Ok you lost interest fair enough but at the time i didnt know and felt bad about it, if you had finished think you could have claimed 8th after the DC issues and 10th without we always asked the guys to carry on whenever possible did we not.

I know we say carry on but I didn't want to drive for 45 mins so I just stayed on side of track to get the replay.
I'm not even annoyed about it so why are you? It's my problem at end of day.
I've knocked you off in past but waited there and then.

Good points Jack 1000 ticket on the way!!
Thanx jb. More than I deserved for a truly pedestrian performance!
Belated input on the dc points controversy. I have no issue with half points for the guys who dc'd last night. Even it it means me losing points.
Challenge might come in future races ... how far into the race do you have to be before you very points?
& jb & Gedi ....kiss & make up. I for one really appreciate all the effort you have put into the v8 series. You are such a lovely couple ...would hate to see you split up.
