So in the mock jw and I barely touched fenders through 1&2. I got a 2 sec contact penalty. My opinion is run penalties off and rely on the drivers to report anything they feel should be addressed afterwards so there isn’t a mess of penalties given out and cars ghosting everywhere. Jmo.

Yes we will be running without contact penalties that's on me for not double checking the settings
 
Great race today, though it wasn't my strongest and my mistakes eventually cost me a few shots of a decent lap time. Had to turn down my pace and change my strategy in lap 2 after a bad crash, ending up with a 4-stop strategy to the chequered flag.

And also a few spins and pit lane whacking to fuel the frustrations.

My night was horrible. Bad from the green light. Turn two got me seeing red. Wanted to ask for a restart, but it was a simple racing incident that was recoverable. Then in 3&4, I was too committed and a ghost became not a ghost literally as I got to it. Puked a motor and took off their rear wing. I was done before I started. BUT I FINISHED! And got a new personal best lap of 1:34 something.

I was reviewing the replay, and saw your incident on the opening lap. Shame that the ghosting in-game is just ridiculous, but glad to see you finishing the race and keeping it cool.
 
Great racing tonight everyone!

Something i recently picked up on that might help some other drivers also, try and remember that the tires are cold on the opening lap. Gentle throttle inputs will help keep you from losing grip on those first few corners.

Saw replay and saw you hit me coming out of ghost. Had a ****** race as well hit finished. Ended up slamming into Nog full engine damage at start of the mid laps. When it rains it pours. But all in all fun.

Yeah, terribly sorry about that. We were 3 wide into 2, was trying to stay off both of you and ran out of room.
