I don't mind the divebomb here and there, or if it's for good reason, like making a pass on the last lap, or murdering someone @ 3 minutes of a 25 minute race cause it's funny and they can still catch up, but @ minute 23 when you are running in 9th and 10th out of 10 and pushing the person he's hitting and himself so deep in the sand or so far off the track that there's no hope of catching up is ridiculous, and gets old in a hurry. I understand it's dirty racing and very few rules apply, but pushing someone out of the way and still being able to retain your position and continue should be the goal coming to the last 2-3 laps of the race, not plowing into someones rear bumper without hitting the brakes at all and blowing them off the track w/ no hopes or re-gaining any position just because you're a prick, or worse yet, want to have your "teammate" finish better is BS in my opinion. It's part of the reason a few of the guys don't come around anymore, and I'm not just speculating, I race w/ them in other rooms and have spoken about it. Racing in this league is supposed to be fun, otherwise what's the point. Barrett takes it to the point of pissing people off so much that it's no longer fun for them and they don't come back. He is the only reason I have stopped making it a priority to make it on Friday nights and now only come if I don't have something else to do, his annoyance is starting to outweigh the fun of the league.
This is my opinion, agree or disagree, I believe that we would have more active regulars and I personally would enjoy racing with you guys more if he wasn't a part of it.
You and I had our fair share of disagreements when I first joined the league, but racing together more and more have developed what I would consider somewhat of a mutual understanding of what each other is going to do in certain situations and what is good dirty racing vs. being a dirty prick and have raced the last few months without any animosity.
I feel as if Barrett's sole goal is to either help you get a better finish or deliberately piss off everyone else in the room and racing with him just isn't fun to me anymore and after talking to guys like dude and GT among others, I don't think I'm the only person who feels this way
