I'd like to complain about furi unlapping himself please 👍. I don't know what he did, but think he deserves a 0.001 second penalty 👍
 
I tried keeping this in PM thank you very much.

Furi you're a clown. Keep your mouth shut for once. Crazy you also lack an opinion.

When you put something on Youtube and then try to keep it quiet your really making no sense.

In other news, for the 32 laps at SSRX, Grinols will be running in my place for 2/3rds points.
 
Where else do I put it?

I put it on youtube so I could PM it to drop. Then you had to open your mouth yet again and spill the beans on a situation you had no involvement in.

Can I also point out that I didn;t post it here, and PM'd it.
 
But fine. If you want my take on it:

Furi, I was not "slow" all race. You are wrong. My tires were shot after I had spun a few laps before. Thats the only reason Knelly had caught me.

IF Knelly was smart and had any form of patience, he wouldn't have forced the issue and could have easily drafted past me into turn 1 and driven away. But nope, he just had to force himself into a gap which didn't exist (I was taking the normal racing line, there was maybe half a lane at the time of contact) and knock me clean off the track. That was completely uncalled for. Yeah, you let of the gas, but at that point, I was just a passenger. I had completely lost control of the car.




If this isn't a clear punt off the track, I don't know what is. If we give penalties at Monza for "corner cutting" I see no reason why we can't give penalties for this.

I've said my piece. I don't really care any more. Lost interest a long time ago so my aim the last couple of races is to hunt down people and purposely punt them off track to ruin races. I have fun doing it and will continue to do so, because it's fun. I like it 👍
 
It's pretty tough to pick either Mule's or Knelly's side here. But I think it is safe to say that MULE would have finished 2nd to last regardless if that incident was avoided. So why even continue bickering?
 
I think that Knelly thought MULE was going to fast for his tyres and would run wide.

I also think MULE thought Knelly would wait till the straight to overtake and would be able to slow that extra bit to get the bite in his tyres.

Going with my two statements I would IN MY OPINION say racing incident.

I would have finished 5th had I not spun by myself a few laps before that. Neither you or him would have caught me. But that's nit the point.

If I wasn't wrecked, I would have at least had a chance to retake him if he spun.

Matty, I took the normal racing line, not expecting him to make a move there. It's pretty much impossible to make a move in turn 8 without being alongside beforehand. Or else you get what this entire discussion is about.
 
There is two common lines around that turn though. The wide exit, and the inside exit (Which happens too be the faster line).

I just think Knelly was think you had went for the outside line for whatever reason and tried taking the inside.

I can see when Knelly points his car at the gap it looks like you would run wide.

I was talking about the incident between you and Knelly where I was ahead of you..?
 
If you're playing the "would have" game, then I can, too. Neither of them mean anything.

Me too.

What 'would have' been the outcome of all this if Mule showed the respect to respond to my PM, rather than show complete ignorance!
 
Mule, I think I still have the replay from the Bud ShootOut in S3. You remember when you cut the grass enterng turn one at Daytona to dive bomb Dowhat like a LaserGuidedMissile? Due to your rage? Exactly dude..... and so why do I lack an opinion again bro? Do I need to go post this on YouTube as well? Don't F*#$ with my team

The same one where Dexter did pretty much the same thing to Partyhat, the difference being that Partyhat was racing for the win and he was a lap down?

And your point is? that's in the past.

I'm confused.

Hi guys, see you on Saturday night.
Me too, I'm confused as well. That was the first time I raced against dexter who wasn't even on my team at the time nor my friend. I actually had it out with him on the old thread n he got banned here at GTP bc of all that, this was the same time Dowhat said his peace with you (Mule). So where does your rebutal lead us now? IMO you just put up a useless defense n doesn't negate anything I have said already. So try again Mule. Try to outwit me if you can, didn't seem to work that time.
 
What does any of this have to do with the current events being discussed? That's easy, nothing. The issues that occurred in that Season 3 non-points Daytona race were handled immediately following the race, and stiff penalties were applied to the guilty parties. None of that is pertinent to the current discussion. As such, I would appreciate it if prior irrelevant incidents were left in the past, not being brought back out in an attempt to fabricate more contempt amongst drivers that are already having trouble finding ample reasons to continue to play such a deteriorating game.

As for the incident at hand, if Mule wants it reviewed, he needs to send a PM to Niop, who was the official race steward for Suzuka. If Niop feels he cannot be impartial because the accused driver is his teammate, then we can have the three remaining team owners (Carb/RPH/Furi) take a look at it and privately weigh in with their opinions until a resolution is reached.

If anyone has anything constructive to add, please feel free to share. Otherwise, racing incidents will be handled and reviewed privately, as has been requested numerous times in the past.
 
Yup.

Seriously guys, stop bitching and whining to/about each other constantly after every other race. Every time I check in it's like watching a bunch of 4 year old kids going at it. Really can't be bothered with the underlying tension between drivers. Grow up.

This may be an unpopular opinion considering everybody seems to have a vendetta on him, since every time anything happens with him he gets jumped on, but Steve tends to make pretty valid points 99% of the time. Add to that the few times we've come together on track have been swept under the carpet very quickly, we have a healthy respect for each other and I think he's a good guy all around.

This isn't me taking a side, it's just me showing that simply because me and MULE wrecked in IndyCar coming up to the checkered and he spent the last 10 laps of the 500 trying to aggressively bump me out of a queue of cars etc. it doesn't mean I have to hold some kind of long standing grudge against him which clouds my judgement on 'who was at fault' whenever I have an incident with him.

Nobody here maliciously causes anything so these arguments are pointless. I used to think everybody here was a stand up fella but over the past months it's got to the point where there's basically only 3-4 full time drivers that I have genuine respect for because everybody else apparently spends their spare time on GTP cruising for a confrontation or something to moan at.

Shut the hell up and get a life. See you at the weekend.
 
I PM'd Niop last night. I say nothing more in here. It's gotten beyond stupid and I'm just as much of a fool for taking the bait. Crazy has been put on the ignore list and will stay there unless he has a useful post to make in the NW thread. If I have anything else to say, it will be in PM.

I've come to the decision that Knelly will not receive any penalties for the incident with Mule at SuzE. However, it is agreed that Knelly needs to show more patience for these situations in the future.
 
Hey i didn't see exactly what you need for request to join, but I'd like to. I saw the #88 has no name listed next to it. Is it free to use? If so i will take it, if you let me. My PSN is Spazmaticality
