People these days... I was in 2nd place in the last lap of a Ferrari F1 race at Indy and someone decides not to brake at the first corner and rams me full speed into the wall at the end of the straightaway. I finished 5th.

I've been having great online races recently, this last one ruined my streak.. oh well.
 
I haven't raced online in about 3 weeks now, (been busy with my iRACING leagues) and I gotta tell ya, my life as been pretty stress free. Can't believe how many idiots play online in this game.
 
That's weird, all of us online have been pretty stress free for about three weeks now...hmm... :P

If your stress comes from GT5 you need to get a life.

Seriously son, I meant as far as gaming goes. No need to insult me. And MUDD my friend, don't make me come back and have to own you on the track. Just fyi PARKER, no need to chime in with any of your childish remarks, MUDD and I are friends.
 
Are you serious?
I meant as far as gaming goes.
Which you never gave any indication of whatsoever.
No need to insult me.
I never did. See above response.
Just fyi PARKER,
Parkour. Got it?
no need to chime in with any of your childish remarks,
Childish remarks? How was anything I said childish? I was just joking around.
MUDD and I are friends.
That has nothing to do with it at all.
 
I joined a room and was following the rules and driving like a gentleman. This was irrelevant, apparently to the xenophobic Englishmen who had populated the room. "Are we going to let this yank stay?" "I say we get rid of him" "BOOOOOOOOT!!!!" (All typed chats)
Then I was kicked. What kind of nonsense is that?
 
Dirty Shuffle. Such a fun way to race but there was this one guy that every race would drive the circuit in reverse.
I love bumping and ramming for position in these races which, I believe, is the idea but honestly, driving in the wrong direction isn't dirty, it's just stupid...

I have about 4 guys that I race Dirty Shuffle with regularly and we do this.

However, its understood by all in the room that the guy in last place after the first lap goes backwards and its an unwritten rule he's only allowed to go after the 1st or 2nd place drivers at that point.

To our credit, we name the room very dirty shuffle and tell every new driver that joins the room how the rules go.

Give it a try, works best on smaller tracks (like 10 laps of Tokyo Bay). Plus if you set the shuffle ratio high, the last place driver gets a good car for the next race, thus increasing the chances that you aren't the "X factor" 2 races in a row.
 
505pp Street & clean Nurb, only.

I played this room 10 dozen times, and win some and lose some.

recently, a guy or girl? kicks me from the room, and blocks me.

30 seconds into the start of a race on the Nur.

I rejoin the next day, only to ask the question:

why was I kicked from your room for driving the Elise 111R ? is this not a street car? I noticed at least 3 contenders had BMW GTR's too.

reply: the BMW's are Tolerable.

my reply: Have a nice day. [blacklisted]

But the gtr is a road car, or at least that's what I thought

Indeed it is, as is the 111R.

The 111R in no way appears to be a race car visually or by its equipment. It can also be Race Modded, which would be a rather odd option for a race car. I'm not sure why anybody would think it otherwise.

From the description: ".... Also, it meets stringent U.S. emissions standards, thus becoming not only the first street-legal Elise to be exported to America but also the first one equipped with 4-channel ABS brakes, all welcome advancements on the Elise that benefited sporting drivers just as much on both city streets in everyday driving and the local race circuit on the weekend." That's a doozie of a sentence but ought to settle it, assuming it's not demonstrably false. I've seen Elises, but not sure if I came across one prior to 2004 or not.
 
The worst I've dealt with online is joining a room that titles "clean racers only", but when I am racing no one really takes notice of the room title :(

I have many other stories, I'll be here all night 👎
 
Last night on Spa a couple of friends and I decided to listen to our cars as they drive by. My Jag XJ220 was the first round winner, that is until a guy in a Castro, Tom's Supra was mad at me saying his car sounded the best. Well he rammed me until we had to troll him before he got kicked. Needless to say i never want to troll, but go ahead immature Gt5 players, make my day. :lol:

I'm starting to notice that sone people are starting the race in reverse, so the person behind them can spin out immediately. It's actually very good if the person behind you doesnt have a very strong car.

I remember being in a room where someone complaining about dirty drivers didnt realize they were the host and could just kick them. After seeing his driving, i didnt tell him he could do it either:scared:
 
I was drag racing with a player. He was bragging that his Mercedes SL600 could beat my Enzo. I said "ok". While we were racing, I had the lead on him, but he was catching up. No big deal right, well, we were side by side and he slams me into the wall. I wouldn't have mind if he beat me fair in square, but the fact that he slams me into a wall a trash talks made him a douche.

You have to censor the name in your post or not include a name, you could get this thread closed and you banned, I think.

You should seriously edit that. You might get this thread closed. :sad:

its really turned into a neat thing for us because we all know that the threat of getting slammed at the starting line exists. Always funny when the guy in front of you slams it into reverse and and whiffs because you turned hard right off the line. But then again if you turn and he accelerates it makes you feel like a goof.
 
I waas in a lobby tonight restricted to 540PP, I pull out my R8 5.2 and the host calls me "retarded" then the race starts and me and the same guy are neck and neck coming into a corner, I go to the inside, he turns wide and decides he wants to go to the inside as well and slams into me, sending me and him into the sand, he yells over his mic and says "thanks for hitting me *insert curse word for butthole here*, can't you pass without hitting people?" I replied, "you turned into me, learn to slow down and check before you make a move", he didn't respond.. So I left, I win:P

Long story short,

last night, another guy and myself were racing at daytona superspeedway. Everytime we would get to the final corner he would ram me into the wall (3 races.......I was getting hot)

4th race, another guy joins and he hits me this time

5th race, I rammed dude 1 in the wall and asked how he liked it....I got no response
