Otherwise will be crash central then driving around on your own for 10+ laps.better than half the field quitting due to a crash on the first lap because the race would be pointless with 4 laps to go.Not really. If you'd rather quit than wait 4 laps for the next race, or even just do a handful of laps on your own then why are you here.You being the generic you, not directed at anyone. « Last Edit: February 09, 2017, 07:34:19 PM by Joe » Logged Joe Moderator Hero Member Posts: 2368 Karma: 39 Re: S7 R5 - Monaco - 09-02-2017 « Reply #48 on: February 09, 2017, 07:57:55 PM » Gonna miss this now actually.

Very clean racing.Race 2 was a bit of a balls up, what with starting from the back, having to pit for fuel, being spun a couple of times by Seanus, and also ricocheting off the wall into Shameless. I actually had some genuine passing opportunities in that race, passing Shameless about 3 times and rooshooter about twice, so that was fun Logged “You can please some of the people all of the time, you can please all of the people some of the time, but you can’t please all of the people all of the time” AJ Full Member Posts: 503 Karma: 7 Re: S7 R5 - Monaco - 09-02-2017 « Reply #51 on: February 09, 2017, 10:11:51 PM » Quote from: Joe on February 09, 2017, 07:11:27 PMNot really.

I wonder if any of them stop to think about why they seem to always be the ones involved in those crashes?

Phil was getting impatient trying to pass me. Race 2. THREE RESTARTS - honestly? what part of turn 1 take it easy aren't people getting? I see bradc side tap phil, seanus punt gawaterman and block the track for 1/3rd the grid.. How damn hard it is it to ease off the brakes and not rev so high until you're all around turn 1. I see one person quit the race because of it. I'm getting tired of being polite on the race track when I am constantly having my race ruined by people making stupid desperate mistakes.. general mistakes I can forgive. Where's the due care or is this a free for all? The main idea of the videos is to promote XGN and this is not promotional material.Seanus and I had a battle side by side in some corners and it was clean until he hit a wall and spun, that was the only good thing in the race (not him spinning). But then I pull over to give Seanus room a lap or so later and get forced into a wall for doing the right thing. Won't be doing that again. Wally unfortunately tapped the wall which spun me on the 2nd to last lap at T1.

We generally don't get much of a choice whether to be involved or not when there's nowhere to go and you get shafted from behind because someone didn't brake, or you just have to wait until everyone clears room so you can continue.

Race 2 I probably contributed to the restarts as I was struggling to get off the line. pretty lonely race two when it finally got underway with only managing to hold the eventual winner up for a couple of corners... you had some shocking pace UnFknBLievable, almost unbelievable Logged UnFknBLievable Jr. Member Posts: 52 Karma: -1 Re: S7 R5 - Monaco - 09-02-2017 « Reply #55 on: February 10, 2017, 12:01:32 AM » Cheers everyone for the race, Tight track and almost blind into some corners.I'm chuffed I bagged a 1.49.8 - Don't drive it like you own it, drive it like you stole it! lol3 restarts in the second race, bit annoying knowing how tight the track is.
