Of course, I might be able to use the PS3 from the modem directly, but I'm not sure if it'll work, it won't work with the router though. Looks like I'm screwed, I'm goin to try it now.

At about 05:0 sec I was hit by the blue car and catapulted into the yellow one! That's why I said -Clean ???

Neither can I cause I completely lost control of the car and it did the usual 180! It might look like I'm trying to block you but I was not.
magic-video1 Which one is me ? I can't see who's who !
I definitely need more practice.
I will not be home 19 -22 August so I have to pass on next weeks race but I hope there will be more racing the weekend after that?

Thats some BS, i didn't even get into anyone on my screen. I'm going to invest into a camera to disprove my faults. Shift does awkward things, I was on the inside line when i passed MO on Spa, there was no way a 'tap' like that should send him off track especially if he's turning towards the opposite direction of the way he went. And the other 'tap' when I got into you Shark, that was weird. I swore I slowed down enough to not even touch you. Again- it's not me or my connection, it has to be shifts servers lagging. I know where the braking zones are. Another reason to support this is when I went too fast into the next turn. I thought I slowed down too much in the first part of the chicane so I sped through the next part only to hit the wall.

fwiw guys, when i was doing a shift competition at the now defunct GTF we had many incidences of what we called phantom hits
the driver getting hit felt the bump and suffered the consequences, but the driver doing the hitting felt nothing and assumed he'd
made a clean pass
so please be wary with accusations of dirty driving. you wouldn't want to fall out with someone when its the games fault

I know these conflicts are mostly because LAG problems.
The only thing I really don't understand why I have no problems like these when I race Shark or Add... If they see there is any possibility to spin out or crash someone with his next step, they simply don't start their movements and give no chanse for make situstions like these.. Fresh, you only push the gas sometimes and don't give enough room to others, as I see. If you're in lap 1, why is it so important to pass everybody in it if there is more than 8 laps to try it a cleaner way (mainly if you're faster..) You have to count lag in too into your driving, calculate how the other can still stand on the track..
I know it is not normal and not easy, but hey, this is SHIFT, you have to know this for now after weeks, month of racing... (and if anybody think GT5 will be much different, I have to tell bad news.. it will have lag problems too. every online race game has a problem like this, so it is better to learn drive with lags, because it will be usefull in GT5 too)
Just see Shark's vid with Fresh on Glendale. He was much faster, but he never touched fresh's car in any corner.. He pushed the break much harder and sooner as it is usuall for him on break distances, turned in not ideal line several times just to avoid any contact.. this is clean racing!
I'll post my vids on monday as usuall, there will be some interesting things too lol.
But this was the closest finish between us on race 3 with fresh. You'll see it how similar our finish was to Add's vid about BTCC!
Else:
Octane: tr to get the exotic DLC from playstation store. it is not the free one.. it cost's about 10 USD if I'm right
And please recognize if we don't answer on the chatroom it is because we're all racing..

Last night was fun. But.
I can't state this enough.
Drivers may not advance their racing position by means of contact. If you make contact with another car forcing them off the track, you must slow down and allow them to retake the position in front of you. Due to online lag and vague collision detection in Shift, it is very possible to accidentally make contact with another car and not be aware of it.
Most the time I'm last due to going off track and I don't just pull back on the track In front of someone, I look behind to see If It's clear If not I wait.
I never take risks when overtaking and If someone Is at the side of me I normally back down to avoid contact. Looks like people have something to prove well I have news to you all you earn respect here and only Mo, Shark & Lefty have mine.
From now on I will not be so soft and will not back down and If I get taken out then this matter will be put to the committee and If need be 1 of 3 strikes will be handed out. You know what happens when you get to 3.
As for the new guys I though you did quite well and hope you enjoyed It.

Yes we know. It's muk-video, not magic-video!
It wasn't your fault.It might look like I'm trying to block you but I was not.
It looks... of course.
Which one is me ? The last one. You are the yellow-blue car, look at the mirror!
Luke,
I remember the 2nd I gave position back
It is on the video -no problem, but not helped.
I know everything was lag... But like Add and Mo said this all avoidable. If you want.
Fresh the camera is a good idea!

Let's not bitch about this.
If someones not playing by the rules and trying to cheat, that will show sooner or later!
I joined this challenge because I wanted to avoid players that crash into you deliberately.

sorry guys
I didnt show up because I realized I need more pratice online
it seems I keep getting bump into (online) and force off the road and I must assume its just me being too slow on the track or breaking too soon or not having a tunned car (atock cars only) and I also dont use the racing line (it spoils the fun for me) so until I know all the track well enought I will only participate in the ring - SPA - Laguna seca
I dont mind being last and I realy looking foward to some clean races and championships but not being very competitive I would only spoil your fun and get in the way.
I will still show up whenever I can to learn a few things and pratice and to race on the above mencioned tracks if you alow it.
and I maybe I will show up to the ring and spa today if I manage to improve my ring time with the F1- 7m37s I can do 7m18s with the vette(stock works no tunning) but I cant seem to do very well with the F1 - I'm trying to tunne it and maybe if it works out I will show up

Totally aggree!
It is ok if you practice on your own to be faster but practice with others will help you how to race against other racers. Think it over, anyway, you'll be welcome.
(and if you are much slower, simply give space to the faster guys and there will be no problem)

I learnt a few more places where I could brake later at SPA tonight!
And that just by watching the other guys in front! 💡

Nice race! But those cars look so slow.. comparing to shift lol.
And the track is not so bumpy I think.
I had a bit practice for next week, my laptimes are on post 2 if anybody is interested.

I don't know anything about lag issues or what causes them, but I don't need to show off or act like I'm some bomb ass racer when I'm not even fond of shift or the controller that i have to use. Maybe some of the issues that you guys don't deal with is because of your location. Some of us are in America. I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it, but there is always lag no matter what. You can see it on news broadcasts. If someone in the news crew is in say Iraq, and they report to the studio in America, there is always a few seconds of pause between a question and answer. That's because of the distance between the two parties. This is my thoughts about the issues.
Add- I know you think I got into you. But on my screen your were on the far side of the track. There is enough room for me to take the inside (on the last turn at Road America) and not get into you. There should be no way that I smacked into you. On my side I was already past you and got hit in the rear by you. It wasn't me driving into you.
That said, and like i said before, I don't need anyone to look favorably on me. If I don't have respect, oh well. I'll continue to race so long as I'm welcome. I don't need to get into anyone. If I feel like I've hit someone I won't go ahead. If I've been hit but can maintain my position than I'll do just that. Today at Spa I felt like Shark got into me, but looking back it's not really worth digging into because I was loose and he passed. He was faster than me anyway. So I'm just racing to race. Points are great but I know how I stand compared to some of you guys on some tracks with certain cars. If I'm up there with you good, if not, I need to practice more and get the car/track combo up to par.

It is possible, but not sure. As you maybe know I live really close to Shark, and sometimes we have big lags too when we race each other. So this is one thing, but not everything.
The best you can do is to try to give room! After our uncountable lag problems, now I really don't say anything for the others' driving. I try to pass only if I know there is enough place to do it, or wait still the driver before me make a mistake. looks like it works! I can drive fast, finish in good position (yes, nowadays the starting grid helps me a lot lol) I think I put nobody out of the track and can make close races too.
Of course everybody can has his own opinion, can drive this way or can be more agressive, but than don't be surprised if someone will be angry after the races LOL
