Round 2: 26/10/08 - Road Atlanta: CLOSED

): !!

I'm pissed off. I did all that practicing and then- the internet goes down in the house. It's still screwed up, we have to replace an ethernet jack and so far, this comp is only what we could plug in I was really looking forward to it....

Crash from last night. this is not lag. I only Just got threw!

How lucky!!! In one of our test season kris spun on the stright and NICKFTM3 and marchie we slowing down, all i could see was smoke, so as i went though i missed kris but a inch and spun off lmao.

I've got some good pics of this... was just about to upload them!

blasting round the final corner of racing lap one... only to be faced by this:



impact unavoidable!



chaddy (i think) is faced with the impossible...



...but somehow drives clean through!

yep suprise suprise i was in another crash again which is becoming quite a bad habbit

WHAT A LUCKY GIT! JESUS!!!

I think you've placed them pictures really well; otherwise we wouldn't have known how close it was.

Hahaha, I bet he just shut his eyes and hoped for the best !!!

To be honest mate, and don't take this the wrong way coz I'm sure ur a top man, but I think that you've caused a fair few accidents because of your aggressive driving. In the first practice session we had you took me off on the first corner at Silverstone with no word of an apology, then proceeded to drive backwards round the track, then in the first round proper you overtook under the safety car and clipped a car into the pit wall on the straight, then took out another car attempting a risky overtake on the outside at speed, and then this weekend you end up in another crash.

Now I'm not trying to take anything away from you coz its obvious you are a very quick and talented driver, your league position speaks for itself, I just feel that you could have a tiny bit more consideration for others around you on the track thats all.

Like I said nothing personal and you'll probably think I'm being a right c*nt now and I dont want to come across like that coz I dont beef with anyone, but its just how I feel thats all and I would hate to end up getting into a decent lobby only to be taken out because somebody was steaming through without a second thought. Obviously the chances of that happening are very slim coz ur a much better driver than I am but its just a thought.

he didnt cause this one tho, Nicky caused the crash LOL

SHAME!

Oh well now I defo look like a c*nt!

My sentiment still remains the same tho. I have been taken out once and I thought the two accidents in the Silverstone race could have been avoided especially the little nudge on the straight after the safety car.

yeah to be fair to LFC... nicky came off the grass to clip him this time. if you need any other pics just let me know... they probably won't be uploaded until tomorrow but i'll get them for you.

the one whre i 'proceeded' backwards round the track wasnt! me as i was making a pizza it was my friend who was on the xbox at the time and specifically told him not to race and he was a c*nt and chose to ignore that so im sorry for that. And with the incident with the safety car chaddy shouted go and so i went and i cant remember anyone saying you cant overtake until someone says go. Furthermore with the incident whilst i clipped a car into the pit wall on the straight there was the slightest of contact which i cant see why it knocked someone into the pit wall because of the lack of contact. Finally with the risky overtake i had room on the outside line only to have that room taken away from me focing me onto the grass and causing an incidnet and with the crash at road atlanta i had the racing line warned nicky i was there but unfortunatly we did make contact.

I would like to apologise for every bit of contact i have made and would like to say none of it was intentional and i am here like all of you to have fun i hope you remeber that crisis.

Yah totally man, like I said i'm not trying to cause any bad feeling or to have a go I just saw it in a different light and I suppose if I'm honest I saw things through different colour glasses coz I got no apology from you when you shunted me off in practice and it was obvious that you'd made contact with somebody coz you pulled onto the line and smashed me right off it. And since then I suppose I've looked at things from a negative point of view.

But it cool, bygones an all that, I said my piece, you've just come out and proved to me what I needed to know, and more importantly proved me wrong, which is what I wanted you to do, if that makes sense!

Ur a good driver and the highest ranked Lambo so that speaks for itself, I was taking nothing away from you or ur driving ability coz I can see that you score highly on both accounts.

So sorry if I caused any offence as it was not intended at all my friend. Maybe if you don't mind one day we can hook up on the test track and you can give me some tips on the setup of my car?

Cheers nah none taken. It would be good to get out there and test and yup ill give you some tips plus laguna seca works quite well with the lambo aswell

Hahaha, I was half expecting you to say............

"Yeah course.

















Actually nah f*ck off mate."

Yeah I thought Seca would be a Lambo track, I'm looking forward to it aswell as I do know the track from the GT days on the PS so I'm a little more confident this time around.

Crisis Nine wrote:Got to say orry to Trk Magic too as know you sent me a msg and tried to chat with me but the race had started Nd I couldnt exactly stop racing to check the msg only to be told it was tough and we wouldnt restart hence leaving me waaaay out at the back of the grid. Hope you understand my man coz ur a good lad and it was nothing personal. I did see you enter the lobby and tried to talk to you but like you say spectator chat must have been off.

Maybe something to note in future to leave spectator chat on for issues such as this?

No worrys Crisis, i understand that you couldn't stop during a race, as like you say it would have put you a fair bit behind and i deffinately wouldn't want that on my conscience (sp?) coz your a good mate and its always fun racing with you.

I agree with the point that in future spectator voice should be on as it could solve problems, like arriving slightly late (I.e. coming into the room on lap 2).

Anyway i have not tested laguna yet, should be a good race and i look forward to racing with y'all.
