I think you'll have to check your whole inbox, where it displaces all conversations you've ever had. It should be at the top.

Well now that I think of it, us ignoring each other would only take away the fun and humor of the FRL for me. The problem is, I am competitive by nature. I'm not sure I'll ever be able to become a super clean driver. At Brands, I was shocked by there being absolutely zero room to overtake. It was like we were racing at Monaco, as you were legally blocking me at every turn because there was just no room. And a couple times I briefly lost my patience and caused huge accidents.

On the first lap you have brake super early to avoid running into the car in front of you. Then you get those people to stick their nose in the smallest of gaps and the car behind runs into them because they had to back out of it and literally block the racing line.
If you have a faster car you can't brake where you want to, you have to take into account the cars ahead.

Only Race 3 is where things got a tad too rough for me. Probably because I lost ground to my main rivals because StreetKing bounced off Cami who was rejoining which put me on the grass and I lost 4 places including Skeng and it took me 3 laps just to pass him alone 
This is why I always try to pass round the outside on the first lap because the inside is literally packed. I remember Silverstone International where I passed 4 cars round the outside because they were all hugging the inside.

Agreed completely with the last sentence but, and don't get too annoyed by this, you should also practice what you preach...
I got tapped by you and sent against someone else in more than one occasion across races 2 & 3 because you failed to take into account that I couldn't brake as late or corner as quick as usual due to traffic...

Yup I'm aware of that. Think it happened about 3/4 times last night. Sometimes you get caught out because the car ahead has to drastically slow down to avoid a car in front mid corner and you run into the back of them. I do need to work on that but a bit of that is down to the track. Hopefully I can be better at avoiding other cars.

There was in the past way too much early lap aggression. I mean you can't win a race on lap 1 so...

Well Brands you have 2 spots to pass on, Druids and out of the last bend with a better run or cut back to get the inside for paddock. Besides that everything else is a dive bomb.

@Ninners triple on ToCA12's Round 1 is the first since @Spurgy 777 did the same on ToCA7's Round 5 at Spa (he also got a triple that same season on Round 3 at Autumn Ring, which was the beggining of a 5-win streak that stretched into next round at Fuji)
