Re: TCM Round 2 Discussion Thread - Road Atlanta Full Circuit

Gutted because I had a quick car yet suffered from my usual bad luck. Took my eye off the track on the last corner of the last lap and lost a place to Chucky, kicking myself over that one... Mad

Ah well. Good racing everyone, and sorry to anyone I had contact with.

Replays on storefront shortly.

Gutted I missed this, I love the TCM, I've had my power back literally 10 minutes, just been waiting for the router to come back on Sad

Watch Aero's pass on Dan in race 2 Lobby A Lap 5. That has to be one of the BEST overtakes I have ever seen in Forza history. Just a shame it resulted in a little contact, caused by I have to say Dan forcing Aero onto the grass a little, but great racing none the less. Well done both of you.

WRONG! WRONG! WRONG! WRONG! WRONG!
This is an obvious sign of trying to stick up for your team mate by blaming someone else! The move he made was very, very late at the speed we were going. I was expecting Aero to still be on the outside of me. And obviously, you don't need a tape measure to see that there wasn't any room!
End of!
GOODBYE!

I was trying to enjoy this event for once but was completely ruined by that incident!

by WWR Chillz Tue 16 Feb 2010 - 23:30

Sorry about the differing opinion, but as I said to Aero, I don't take sides. If someone is in the wrong I will tell them, team mate or not. The move I saw involved Aero up the inside of you, and you say and I quote "I was still expecting Aero to be on the outside of me" therefore you were unaware of your position into the corner as well as his. So how can you defend yourself when you thought he was on the outside of you when in actual fact he was on the inside of you. That may explain why you moved across on him well before turn entry. (By accident I might add, as you thought he was on the outside.) which then pushed him onto the inside grass. Still, Aero had that corner and I believe if you knew he was there, you would of backed out and gave up the corner to Aero. I still have to say that is one of the best pieces of driving I have seen in Forza so far. If you were aware of Aero's move and allowed a little racing room for him, it wouldn't have resulted in an incident and would be regarded as one of the best pieces of racing on both your parts. I still say it's a racing incident. Racing is racing!!! No offence to you Dan, you seem to be one of the cleanest racers on here and I am not taking sides. Happy Racing!!!

Please do not discuss incidents which are under investigation by the stewards in the public forums...

5th overall is great still got a great chance of a top 5 overall in this championship cheers

Where does it tell us what incidents are under investigation? I couldn't see it. And if either of those drivers get penalised, it would be a joke! Racing incident.

EDIT - I found the incidents under investigation. Sorry didn't know where it was.

Chill Chillz! Razz

Dan seriously mate you were involved in 3 close races and finished 3rd ahead of 22 other people. What else did you want?

PS Sorry about qualifying. I did stay out of the way to the left of the track but I can't do anything about my slipstream.

Well done last night Crisis you, me and rogue had some close battles throughout the night. Me and Rogue still can't belive how fast that Opel was in the 3rd race and you simply out drove us. Well done mate.

Oh, and sorry Rouge for crashing into you...especially as I'm you team mate Embarassed

by Crisis Nine Wed 17 Feb 2010 - 15:27

Cheers Richy, last night was my proudest moment on track with TORA without a doubt. And what made it even more special was the praise and positive comments I got from you guys after the race. We had some good battles between the three of us all night in every race and it was a really good night. Cheers to you too for giving such a good race!

by **CQR Rogue** Wed 17 Feb 2010 - 20:14

I've watched that move Aero put on Dan and I'm really suprised he's been penalised for it. I don't really know where he was expected to go as Dan had turned into the corner very early causing the contact. Plus I don't think Aero can be responsible for Dan not noticing 6 foot of car passing from the right to the left of his rear view mirror.

Also I don't understand a 2 second qualy penalty for that incident when you compare it to someone else getting 3 seconds for stopping, driving the wrong way round the track, and intentionally ramming someone.
