You sounded a lot younger over the mic last night.
Yeah I'll concur with that.
No offence @CAMikaze but you sound like an over enthusiastic 20yr old who has had half a dozen Red Bulls before you race.

FRL: "The friendliest racing league on GTPlanet" Oxymoron. You need to get your members under control. Also, you have some people on far too short a leash while others seem like they can do whatever they want on the racetrack. Furthermore, stop banning people just because they make a lot mistakes for one race, as well as little stupid things such as the argument you had with TheLuigi, and the pretty much unfair act of excluding Harsk from any of your events. Finally, I suggest a preseason evaluation for new drivers and others in GT wishing to get in into PT. Furi would watch them race each other, see if their times are up to par, and see if they race clean enough. Now it is time to discuss the real problem. FlyiongFox obviously was the one who made me post that all bold rage post, and that caused you Furi to then to post yours which of course caused me to simply say "I QUIT!" and storm out of your office. I therefore admit that I am in the wrong(like when am I not), and you are right mostly. When you say "You are staying in GT for now" I'm terrified. Do you mean, like, I can return very soon or simply "Pretty much never, maybe 30 years from now". So I am actually not gone yet. The gravedigging stops now. I'll stay in GT "for now," but certainly not forever. But of course this is if Furi even knows how to forgive people for anything. After all, not one rejected member has ever returned to the FRL, which really is only 1% garbage although that 1% sticks out like a sore thumb. How else am I supposed to appeal to you, Furinkazen? I am sorry.

I wouldn't accuse all of us... what did I do after all? I know you said "some" but you're also bunching us all together with mocking the league's participants, which in turn is all of us.
I'll give you a post I made when you went on a rant last time.
Moving on...

I think it should also be up to the driver, not the organization. Personally, I stayed back in GT-O because I knew I wouldn't be able to keep pace, let alone handle it.

It would make more sense for me to return to GT-P as I have had previous experience in the class (and even 1 solitary race victory to my name due to the fact @Spurgy 777 DC'ed while in a comfortable lead). It's very difficult to drive the GT-P cars with little or no experience as I can account to as around 2 years ago I joined in the Ferrari 330 P4 at Spa only because I was online on a Saturday night as it was for that season and lapped 5 times in 25 laps and barely beat the GT-O field which was made up of the Alfa's, I steadily improved and moved to the more stable Ford, teaming up with @Furinkazen as the Ferrari was a handful on GT5, i've not driven it on GT6 so far, and achieved a few podiums to go with the aforementioned victory.

Provide examples?
I hadn't banned you for the seasons, just 1 race. I stated in this thread pre-Matterhorn there would be heavier penalties for that races, hence the warnings for @CAMikaze and @ranhammerR34 as well. Luigi decided to make up a false report of getting us banned off GTP, but at least ultimately apologised, even after expletive-laden PSN messages.
I'll go through the GT-P grid then for this season as you wish:
@DrifterJoe - Multiple-time champion
@gtpanoz - Le Mans winner last season, and proven frontrunner.
@Furinkazen - me - driven these things for 3 years, over 45,000 miles, and a 3 time race winner.
@jammy21 - one of the most rapid European drivers I have ever come across. Also extremely clean.
@FlyingFox - Never ever the fastest guy out there, but always clean, and kept on trucking.
@Pluxtheduck - Bit part player owing to his schedule, but unbelievably handy in that Jaguar.
@Akmuq - A race winner in this series very earliest days, and one of the very first people I raced with online.
@LancerEvo7 - Seriously a Ferrari specialist, and pretty good in other stuff to.
@Ninners - Well he lapped the field and dominated sunday on his debut, need I say more?
Now it is time to discuss the real problem. FlyiongFox obviously was the one who made me post that all bold rage post, and that caused you Furi to then to post yours which of course caused me to simply say "I QUIT!" and storm out of your office.[/quote]
Who typed the message and hit the "Post Reply" key..?
Usually it takes people at least a full season to get back up.
Banned FRL members (off top of my head) and status:
@DK - chucked out ToCA twice for being worse than a Malaysian Airline pilot for knowing where he was going. He actually stopped acting like that and has been a stable part of FRL since. Just need to work on the temperament on mic, but you did well sunday
Vtec - Not tagging as he is still on GTP (and no-one else please do either), dropped me a PM other week expressing note of how surprised he was at the hate. He did pretty much run people off the road for a living.
Johny - The guy who took people out for no reason, rage quit events just to get a cheap pole in a reverse grid race... called poor old Dan a Man-🤬 at Monza in ToCA2....
@chrisjohnson93 got suspended from Ferrari GT-P duties for turning a prancing horse into a bucking bronco aimed at everyone else. He improved, and yes he is free to return to GT-P.
and finally Braun... Sent me a PM saying "don't 🤬 question my driving" after I revoked his license for taking people out and divebombing GT cars.
History lesson done. I really can't be bothered right now. Ryan you're out door this weekend. If you're toys return to the pram (or better still the shop shelf), and I have a talk with people... maybe you could be back. But if you do, you're damn lucky.

@RyanRacer: It can be hard to work your way into a group of friends. This isn't a dig at you at all. I've never raced you so I wouldn't know your driving style. But seriously. If you (that's a plural you, not you singular) walk into a group of friends and then instantly think your a part of it then the group will most probably turn against you as you could seem annoying. I think it would work much better for you if you try and keep down a little, and only post if extremely necessary. Do this until you are accepted into the group, then you can post humour or even hate. This is a natural reaction for humans. They all want to protect their 'pack' from outsiders. To be allowed into the 'pack' you must prove yourself. If you (again, you plural) stroll up to a group of people and pretend you Barry Big Bollocks then people WILL judge you. Whereas if you prove that you are for this group. Then you will be accepted. There are people who easily fit into FRL. And there are others who don't. Maybe if you just back down from this for a while. Accept your penalty, and practice whilst your away. Then come back better than ever.
This is friendly advice mate. Don't take me the wrong way. I'm sure your a good guy. But try not to go against the flow. As a mate of mine from Essex would say; "Don't be jel, be rheem." I didn't understand this at first. But basically, it means, don't go against guys if you want to join in. Go with them, and help out. Good Luck with proving yourself once you come back

Uhm, ok, I wasn't going to comment on this, but it seems to me that this got blown way out of proportion. The way I see it, Ryan is by far not the worst driver in GT-O (he even gave Yeratel a run for his money at Matterhorn last Sunday), but he's probably well placed in GT-O's for the time being. GT-P is really no place for anyone that is not very consistent with high-powered cars as he would be endangering the people he races against, but also GT-O participants. That is something that has to be avoided by all means in a series that uses heavy damage. It's not always about single lap speed. GT-O is a great place to learn to be consistent during long races and it's by no means a second rate class. E.g. both Yeratel & me are former GT-P race winners and still choose to race these lower powered cars. It's a great place to hone your skills and learn to make fewer and fewer mistakes.
You others, who have been coming down like vultures on Ryan, give the guy a bit of a break. Yes, his, ahem, "large" post was ... odd, to say the least, but what do you expect from someone that young (no offense, just stating facts here) when you can't stop bringing up his mistakes in GT-P? I don't know what he did in Sunday's race that was so bad (except for the behaviour on the pace laps ... hint, hint), especially to warrant a race-ban. Or was that for the post...?
Anyway, just trying to be a voice of reason.

......Also @RyanRacer you didn't see @CAMikaze or @ranhammerR34 having a complete blip for getting warnings did you.
No, like grown adults they took it on the chin and moved on.
I also posted this about CAM:
It was good banter and CAM realised that and replied as such.
Also it would appear that most if not all concerned with WSC is older than you so bloody well treat them with the respect they deserve will you.
Respect others and they will respect you.
This is my final post on the subject as I've taken on board what Snow has said

Let's leave this now. We've had our say and that's it. Ryan GT -O is best fit. Doesn't mean you're a worse driver, you're just not quite ready for GT -P yet.
Sunday, whilst we're racing, you go online, turn some laps at Spa, and rack up some miles there.
