There wasn't a great deal in it, but because it was a T2 breach of the “moving across to the other side” of the track rule, this is a 50 kg penalty.Wally braked too late into the wide final turn and hit AbleArcher – 50 kg penalty.Following that there was side-to-side contact between AbleArcher and Bacchulum – racing incident.Race 2Phil ran into the back of Joe while braking into a corner, spinning him – 50 kg penalty.Season Standings - Utes1. killagorilla, 11282.

I had to turn up the exposure here.

It will take some time to get good muscle memory for that one.The first lap I turned I entered the pits as I could not see the corner.

Could be some race carnage with all those walls! Can't see many passing places apart from the final turn.

I was just too aggressive after Joe's glorious move...you're a hero...it was better to quit. I'm done...have fun. « Last Edit: November 17, 2020, 09:09:29 PM by killagorilla » Logged Joe Hero Member Posts: 2368 Karma: 39 Re: S35R5 - Denver Pepsi Center « Reply #12 on: November 17, 2020, 10:13:06 PM » Quote from: killagorilla on November 17, 2020, 09:04:10 PMI was just too aggressive after Joe's glorious move...you're a hero...Thanks. I try my best. In seriousness though I knew you were there, but I wasn't sure what Wally was planning on doing with letting us past. I was on the inside with full lock on but the car just wouldn't turn in and it drifted out and into you. If you read my race 2 review below you'll probably feel better. EDIT: Did you even watch the replay? I didn't touch you, you hit the wall on your own and bounced off me.Started 1st but got a slight tag from Phil on the 1st lap and ended up back in last with pretty bad body damage which was slowing me down. Fought my way back to 4th then spent a while behind Freezer. With his ballast and my damage we seemed evenly matched. We came into the pits at the same time with me behind, and somehow I came out just ahead. Pulled out a small gap after a few laps; Phil and AGK way too far ahead at that point. On the second half of the last lap I blew the engine and didn't finish. Nil points. « Last Edit: November 17, 2020, 10:36:21 PM by Joe » Logged Wally Administrator Hero Member Posts: 11033 Karma: 152 AC Admin Re: S35R5 - Denver Pepsi Center « Reply #13 on: November 17, 2020, 10:46:14 PM » Results are up.

I didn't touch you, you hit the wall on your own and bounced off me.The way I saw it, you did run wide and squeeze killa into the wall. See the results section.

Joe caught me mid race and the tyres were starting to go a bit so pitted on lap 18 and Joe followed me in.Unfortunately I was a bit slow out of the box which gave Joe the overlap out of the pits. From there I again focused on keeping it clean sitting in 4th for many laps.I could keep Joe in sight but not do much about him and then suddenly on the last lap he is out and a slid through for a podium.Pretty surprised to be 3rd on the supercars leaderboard given my slow pace in the utes which then sets the supercars grid . . . must be a few people sliding off!!
