Would like to congratulate TG Haydo on taking the win. You continue to impress us all! Smile

I'm so happy to see Oscar make it to the finals. With the effort and sportsmanship he puts in, it is well deserved. Great job buddy Smile

Also congrats to F4H Diablo for taking the final step on the podium! Btw, Supercross was sick! Got to meet Dean Wilson and Chad Reed! Very Happy

I was specifically told that no driver was going to be able to drive any of the cars shared until the event started. However, one participant sent a request to LMR immediately upon hearing that the TORA car club was having issues. He was accepted at least 45 minutes prior to the race, and about a half hour before it started, I heard him analyzing how one of the cars handled. That very car was the one in which that same participant beat me. The fact that he had practice in the car right before the race and I followed my given instructions not to touch any of them despite already belonging to the LMR garage puts a bit of integrity into question for me. I am not sure if it was an established rule or a gentlemen's agreement not to have access to the cars (I don't see how the second would be possible as each driver had to be accepted into the club), but I saw it as an unfair advantage that arguably changed the results of my lobby.

Hello

Sorry for your disappointment in the event. I would have to say you was told some wrong information or told a gentleman agreement but not all drivers going by this or informed. I never once said you was not allowed to drive or test the cars when you got them as I would have no control over this once you had the car. If you listen to the stream from last year Duncan also talks about how he found some of the cars driving before his slot in the event. I sent/shared them as late as possible for little testing to be taken.

The only rule on the cars was that any of the champion cars would not be driven by there driver.

Once again I am sorry that you got told this incorrect rule and it took away your enjoyment of the event.

If I had been told I could use the cars that were shared prior to actually joining my lobby, things perhaps could have turned out differently for me and others who did not know they had such a practice window. I guess it's not a huge deal though, the deserving driver ended up with the title regardless.

Sorry as i did not put no testing allowed I thought all would test

Thanks, man!

I met Reedy back when he was still on Yamaha's, he's a lot cooler guy now than he was. I rode with Barcia one time back when he was on 85's, floored me and i was on a 250. Alessi crying during his interview had me in tears laughing. Awesome that he won and all, but then to jump the gate is just typical haha.
