Driving standards advice: Watch a replay of the Daytona 500. Don't drive like that!

You mean I can't turn people for the win??

Well since we're going to a road course, wouldn't the equivalent (sort of) be like how Austin Cindric dumped Kaz Grala at Mosport last season?

I would agree with you if Nick Totten hadn’t got 2nd in the title after 3 wins in his rookie season lol

I love that I'm considered a rookie in this series

Well crap. I figured Totten was a grizzled veteran the way he handled the year. At least I have this beer stein with "TASCAR Brickyard Pole winner" I made myself.

Law is a rookie? RIP my ROTY chances.

HCR Carlson wrote:Law is a rookie? RIP my ROTY chances.

I said the same thing.

However to be considered a Rookie I say you must not have started more than half of any one season prior to this year. The most starts I made was 3 in one season, thus why I consider myself a Rookie.

However stranger things have happened. Anyone can win ROTY as I'm not counting any drop round for it. Miss a race and take a hit in ROTY.

Just to let people know, sign in for Sonoma was meant to open yesterday but there is something wrong with the docs. Issue is currently being resolved and I hope to have sign in open at some point tomorrow!

I one pitted the race!!!!!!!!! I won B lobby even though I settle for third!!!!! I got a podium!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Shout out to UeharaTofu!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Couldn't make this happen with out you!!!!!

Congrats to Windcharger on his first TASCAR lobby win!

Congrats Windcharger!!!!! Nice job!

Glad I could help you out!!!

To go from 13th and three quarters of a lap down out of the draft to 5th? I'll take it. What a race!

Was happy to push my teammate to the win in Lobby C. Ultimate Autosport 1-2!!

(Btw, my result was not submitted into the leaderboard?)

I wouldn't be celebrating the one pit-stop if I were you, my friend...

P2 with what galeforce has dubbed "The Zanardi Controls"... I'll consider that a job well done on a track I personally expected to not be so good at. Strategy prevailed, was fun in the end pushing XPR ChicaiN to his second victory of the season, and taking both Daytona victories congrats man, well deserved.

I stand by what I said after the race. I have a hard time believing you pit on lap 18 and made it to the end. You would have to go 63 laps on one tank. In a race with no cautions. Even people in the draft were going just under 30 laps and you did more than double that

I'm confused....was there a minimum amount of pits people needed to take? Did he set up the room? Was he supposed to pit if his car didn't need to? Slippery slope here guys. He didn't set up the room, just drove the car with what he was able to do.
This game screwed up, not him.

if its a forza issue why is Mercy been told that he might be losing his finishing position? seems a bit harsh considering its out of his hands. personally i'd say rerun the race if you feel people have been cheated by the game and not HIM.

Even so it is an unfair advantage against those who decides to be honest...I set mine prior to each race via free play for what the series is. If Mercy did indeed not change his settings...knowing that the glitch has not been fixed by Turn 10 then he is guilty of cheating...even if unintentional. Mercy could of easily no stopped that race and claimed he ran fuel mileage all the way.

This ultimately can even put harsher regulations on those who dont break the rules. Mercy Already demonstrated during Qually that he has no regard for rules by having a really dark Blue window tint on his car which screwed me up during qually. Not only did I say something others did, and from what i hear he still had it on during the race despite Jordan telling him to take it off. So whats to say that he intentionally left his damage setting on no damage rather than fuel and tires.

Rules state what damage settings must be on...for Daytona it was fuel and tires and drivers are tp accomodate for game glitches accordingly...that means that thier settings must be set to the series...it would be different if lobby settings overwrote user settings but it doesnt.

Put simply...ACG No Mercy failed to adhear to the rules of the series that are determined by Staff and Series organizers. His failure to remove a banned window tint as told to by series organizers and his failure to make sure ALL his settings were correct is in my opinion a punishable offense.

I dont see how people can defend this. 63 laps is impossible at daytona with fuel and tires...The only way to achieve that and only loose 200 feet a lap is by not having your settings right.

Staff are looking at it.
