Lap: 1

Evidence: https://streamable.com/1nfo8g

Description by SGR Corvid: I was making a move up the inside of Turn 4, dudge turns in and continues to turn in, forcing me onto the grass and causing every member of the field behind to lose trackposition due to the check up

Stewards Decision: Written Warning to DODGE2662 for causing avoidable contact. Though this was a minor incident, this is a reminder that you must be more aware of cars around you, as Corvid had a right to this inside line.

Race: 1

Description by DODGE2662: Cowboy instead of slowing down just kept their position sending my rear out causing an Obstruction

Stewards Decision: Racing Incident, no further action. While Dodge does get moved off the racing line here, you have to go back to the entry of the corner to see how everything fell into place. It was 3 wide going into Druids with Dodge on the outside, clipping the grass even in the land bargeEl Camino. He then cuts back towards the apex, where Cowboy has already put his car. They collide and check up, which then the Ford Fiesta from behind checks up makes contact, and Dodge draws the short straw. If you're in a large car on the outside, jettisoning back to the middle lane in a hairpin is a bad idea - you're probably going to get clipped.

Additionally, and this is more of a note to everyone - Stop messing with your video clips. Leave the damn camera centered on the car, preferably from far chase cam but if it's an onboard then whatever view you use... And stop slowing the video down and rewinding! Just stop it. It does not help at all. Let it run at full speed. I don't want to invalidate SI's over bad videos but if we keep seeing these videos where the camera keeps swinging around the car wildly and the video is slowed to 0.25x, I will.

Steward Inquiry Reference Number: 893
Drivers Involved: Me, GRT LetsFly
Series: Naffcar
Round: 3 Brands Hatch
Race: 1
Lobby: 1
Lap: 2

Evidence: https://streamable.com/qgrf8k

Description by DODGE2662: LetsFly didnt see me take the Apex and turned in too tight and took me and themselves off the Track

Stewards Decision: Racing Incident, no further action. The clip provided does not give conclusive evidence as to who is at fault in this crash. One would think it's LetsFly since he was on the outside and contact was made, but if you take into account how far Dodge dives into the turn (he's at or just beyond mid track), it also looks like he ran LetsFly out of room. Therefore, there's not much the stewarding team can do.

If you're going to edit a video clip to send in for your own SI, at the bare minimum make sure it's helpful and representative of the claim you're trying to make. And stop slowing it down!

Steward Inquiry Reference Number: 942
Drivers Involved: Ax4x Bayless 39, myself
Series: NAFFCAR UK
Round: 6
Race: 3
Lobby: 1
Lap: 1

Evidence: https://gamerdvr.com/gamer/theyakobski/video/100335286

Description by TheYakobski: Bayless performs a small PIT manoeuvre on me, causing me to skid into the grass and crash into the wall.

Stewards Decision: Racing Incident, no further action required. Yakobski began to track wide and Bayless drove a steady line, expecting him to hold the inside. It didn't happen like that, and neither drive are really to blame.

Steward Inquiry Reference Number: 941
Drivers Involved: Ax4x Mikey J, myself
Series: NAFFCAR UK
Round: 6
Race: 2
Lobby: 1
Lap: 1

Evidence: https://gamerdvr.com/gamer/theyakobski/video/100334297

Description by TheYakobski: Mikey pushes me off the road, causing me to hit the tyre wall and spin, forming an obstruction to the rest of the lobby.

Stewards Decision: Racing Incident, no further action required. Yakobski failed to compensate for the track bending away from him, resulting in him piling into Mikey J and taking himself into a tire wall. Yakobski needed to give more racing room here, though while already 3 wide this was probably going to end in tears, anyway.
