I watched the replay that night and it was vtec going past you. You wouldn't give up (like every other time you were overtaken:tdown:) and you turned in to early and smacked the inside barrier forcing yourself into the barrier. I was watching your onboard because I was investigating how you ruined my race.

That is the one problem with contact racing. A lot of people see it as an excuse to barge into people or go for gaps that really aren't there, then act like it's in the rules. Don't get me wrong, I like this series but quite a few drivers (not naming names) see to think they can push you into the barriers and come up with some stupid excuse rather than just apologising. This issue really needs addressing

Anyway, glad that NGTC is allowed next year, should be fun with more cars and hopefully a full grid.
 
As it stands NGTC will be the only cars allowed for Season 3. Also they are a lot easier to regulate than current cars.
 
Johnboy and Gedi=:yuck:

Explains how he won in Monza anyways.
Aswell as them I think GTP_Johny should've been disqualified too as he had a rant which was totally out of order over a racing incident because it was abusive, complete disregard for any other persons feelings and an absolute embarrassment to himself. Then he quit which allowed him pole position and an easy victory and almost pretended that nothing had happened in the previous race.
I know I got pissed off last season at high speed ring but he was totally out of order and he should've been thrown out of that race weekend in my view. Too late now though.

I wasn't at Monza but I remember you getting mad at High Speed Ring and then I sort of advised/annoyed you but since then you haven't gone mad at all, unlike me when I got mad at gedi at the Nurburgring and at Cote d'Azure. (think he would learn his lesson:crazy:)
 
Season 3 I'm going to tighten up the rules. Swearing in a lounge and quitting in a huff are nearly as bad as parking your car in the middle of the road.
 
I wonder, is anyone in favour of promoting drivers who finished below drivers that were DQ'd? Say, for example, if someone finished below 1 DQ'd driver, they would get moved up 1 place, if they finished behind 2 they would get moved up 2 places, and if they finished behind all 3 which have been DQ'd so far they get moved up 3 places.

BTW, I think I was caught up in Gik69's incident out of the Port Chicane. Massively annoying, I think I could have gotten a podium position out of that race if it weren't for that crash. :ouch:

Yeah, i'm sorry about that but I was pee'd off at being treated like a bumper car, the last race I was a little erratic but I was just keen not to get pushed out the way.... which I then was haha :).
But when he ranted he acted like a spoilt child and then later acted like nothing had happened. When I got annoyed I feel addressed what I felt was wrong. Nonetheless, that is history now.

👍

so vtec took me out then! and what u mean i wouldnt give up... isnt that part of racing? its a tight street circuit what do you expect? i can t let people just overtake me its there job to overtake me. and the reason i won in monza was because i passed the line first..

sorry driftking but mistakes happen.
 
Akmuq get over it do you really think that with the power limiter set it would make that much difference, ive explained to furi that myself and gik69 used the BMW in other races and left the turbo on by MISTAKE, our fault yes but an honest oversite nothing else. We were hardly pulling up any trees before our points penalty and i have missed the last 2 races due to other commitments so much for our master plan to cheat our way to victory. As for the DQ suggestion i noticed if everyone would feel happier with certain members being exclueded thats cool will go with that, but i will stress again for the hard of hearing we both made a genuine MISTAKE which was stupid on our part the turbos are easily spotted gik69 even pointed it out to me before he realised he had left hes on aswell!! Rant over done.
 
The turbo makes a lot more torque in the lower RPM range, pulling much harder out of turns. Sure, your max power is capped the same, but you'll reach that cap a lot faster than others. Big advantage.

Thanks Ryan sure your correct but the facts of the oversite remain fella.
 
_______ and ____= :yuck:

Aswell as them I think ________ should've been disqualified too

Let's not publicly call out anyone. Any issues, PM Furi or PM the individual.

I wonder, is anyone in favour of promoting drivers who finished below drivers that were DQ'd?
I'm in favor of this... If a driver is disqualified, the points should move up the table. (More work for Furi though)
 
OK, to all those that wish to participate in the Samba Bus race, it will happen Friday at 3:30 EST (7:30 BST I believe?)
You can tune and upgrade your samba bus however you'd like.
You may bring your friends.
If you can't make it PM me.
Add gogatrs on PSN and say that you want to do the samba bus race.
PM me with questions.
 
I'm going to step in here.

1. No public name-bashing. Discussion of an incident is fine, but as long as it does not turn into a flame war (which hoepfully we are avoiding right now.)

2. Of course people will get annoyed with incidents, but that's racing. An you can't alter what has happened in the past.

3. From now I'm tightening up. People should know by now who they are comfortable racing with and not. Too many complaints and action will follow, especially as we approach the business end of the Season.

4. Drivers who have been warned already should tread extra carefully.

5. Of course there is always an option at the end of the season, if someone has enough complaints, they are barred from Season 3. May sound kind of harsh, but without naming names, there are certain drivers who appear to attract more unwanted attention than others.

6. Last season Tsukuba was very tight, but offered some of the best racing we have ever had. I hope that we can continue our good form from Monaco into this weekend. Good luck to all!

Oh and everyone enter Gogatrs Samba Bus Race - it's also a chance to let your anger out I suppose ahead of tomorrow...
 
PM Sent Brooks and sorted 👍

If anyone wants to join, I have a lounge open NOW for some racing at Tsukuba with recommended cars. Some casual fun banger racing. Join now - and blow off any steam for tomorrow!
 
Running fun races at moment on my 0.3 mile oval... NASCAR on comfort hards :lol: Join if you want!

EDIT... got connection issues.

how is this not saying names then? or publicly calling out?

Thats fine. I'm just warning against anyone having a public rant about someone. And to be honest, I would rather let my driving do the talking... I'm sure you guys would as well
