The racing line? If there was one line, then racing would be pretty boring!
You already closed the door out of the last bend. I cut back and had the pace to overtake, but again you forced me out. If it was I race for positon I can understand, but I know when I'm taken out.
When I say that I had the line I mean that it was MY line for you to get around me. Now understand that I didn't realize you were a "lapper" and I would have giving up the position but Im not letting no one by just because you started infront of me and are now passing me. I am not a dirty racer but Im no P**sy either.
There are few places to pass on this track clean and you chose one not so clean and it cost you...sorry

I watched the replay and it seems you had a fight with the wall on the first lap and dropped back behind everyone else. So I dont know if its that incedent your upset with or with me a few laps later.
I have respect for all racers but come on man...You need to see my side of this. You did not communicate with me that you were trying to pass and you try to cut on a inside of a corner where the wall will win every time. Sorry that it worked out that way. If the club Pres thinks this was done intentional that I will take my hits. But it seems YOU need to have respect for the wall
Also giving up a 3rd place lead in lap 17 of 20 because you tried to pass in the middle of the channes is not that smart

First of all, stop this. We don't need a flame war, if you want to go personal, go private.
Secondly, katpeeler, when you are in last lap it is sort off your job to know who you are racing. It's the racing code. It doesn't make you a pussy, you are already in last position and you having nothing to win there. If you weren't in last position and review the video, I would say it's a stupid place to pass someone and you are allowed to close a gap, becaus you are defending your position. We can't use the blue flag, wich automaticly allows everyone to defend his place.
And now keep it nice.
Btw, Forza uses a nice system for knowing who you are racing. Turn it on.

No one intentionally caused a crash. We, as a club can learn from this and better understand each other on the track. No need to cause a stir in the club, we have some good drivers here and I would hate to see anyone leave (just sayin') due to a 2nd race of the season mishap.
Keep it civil or I will turn Damage to Simulation

I bet it gave you more breathing room.
And I'm sorry though about what transpired on the first few turns. I looked back at it again and I should have braked. Though I didnt really think of doing that since it looked like you made a clean pass but the models gave a different story.(in the replay we didn't actually touch.Yes I rage quit, for the 1st time!
)Anyway I believe that these tracks with lower HP cars makes sense and as we progress we go faster places. I still think eventually we should have a reverse order though. 👍
But again communication is key here everyone. Its not like we have spotters.

Same problem for me. I just don't want to risk it
But yes, it then results in some very stupid situations like me battling Chill and Katpeeler to lap them without being able to shout "MOOOOVE OOOUUTTTAA MY WAYYYYY!" But no worries. We learn little from every single race as we're going along! 👍

Guys we need to step up! We've gotta take some of these poles and 1st place finishes from Forcone before he runs away with the championship. We need to be more aware of what's going on around us on the track and react accordingly, whether it's letting cars by without a fight when being lapped or being patient in tight spots on the track when making a pass. Guys like DC can give Forcone some competition in these races and it's a shame to see him quit a race because of something that could be so easily prevented. Let's do better as a club and make this a clean, competitive season. 
Sorry Forcone, but I don't want you to be the Jimmy Johnson/ Sebastian Vettel of FPM.

He Deadly, I found a real life version of your overtake: (
)
I hope I can give Forcone some pain in the ass next week, I'm free from work so I should be able to race. It'll be my first race of the season too I'm aiming for atleast top 5.. My best finish position is third (3 times) last season, I want to finish first once..

I do want to appologize to Focone and Wiggs for not yeilding. I will try to keep up with who I am racing. But its tough when you get passed by the same guy twice in a race. You fast guys its easy to know who your racing but us in the back it gets confusing. I do my best to stay focused on whats in front of me not behind me. Especialy on a track like this...to me there are very few places to pace...But I may be wrong..... Enough of that.
Someone sway my car vote for the next race....I really haven't drove any of those....

The D Class winner is the 2007 Mazda MX-5 Roadster Coupe (RWD).
I really enjoy driving this one, I barely tuned mine and it handles really well. Good luck this week and see (hear) everyone Saturday!

I'll be absent from this race.Stupid work. I hope I don't miss any more races.
I'll be missing this next race too but I'm gonna do my best to put in a good qualifying time. I've never run on the reverse version of this track before and I hate the normal version of it, so it's gonna be a challenge.
