Has any 1 got any decent pics from last night they would like to post here?

Lobby C was really good. Had a good fight with Crisis for the Race 1 lobby win. That Jag was just pulling out in a straight line which kept him ahead.

Lead for good portion of Race 2 then got some serious understeer through T3 in the last few laps. Had the second Jag come by anda bit of a touch with the Merc in T4 was annoying as I wasn't expecting it to brake so early. Ah well we both survived and had built up enough of a lead onfourth to keep my podium. Car was very competitive in the race and was running some two seconds quicker than my unrepresentative qualy time... Oh what could have been!

Me and TPR Box have had some sort of unspoken agreement these last 3 race meetings, where he wins the first race and I win the second race! lol!

Great racing again all round Cheers

slightly dissapointing first race (ever on tora) as quali was poor and got stuck behind wumba afer he dived me into turn one. nudged him when i tried to overtake again as he was lagging a bit (soz) so i didnt push too hard after that. second race i was chasing wumba again but dropped off the pace towards the end.

These are my highlights from race 2 A-lobby.

- Being illegally overtaken off track

- Watching the accused individual out-brake himself at the next corner, causing a collision with another competitor

- Clumsily being herded off track by this individual whilst trying to avoid the incident outlined above

- Losing numerous positions and a significant amount of time due to above 'herding'

- (This is my favourite) Receiving no acknowledgement.

A tacit hand in the air was all I hoped for.

Oh yeah, race 1 was great... Very Happy

by Guest Mon 5 Nov 2012 - 20:04

Not good Cob! Were you overtaken by a car 4 wheels off the track? They should have given the place back really. Best thing to do is submit an SI if you're unhappy with how it affected your race.

Lol trust you Beanz Very Happy

Daniel's gotta work and I've got other plans, so we won't be able to trade paint at Laguna lol!

This weekends races for me in Lobby B weren't that great. I personally drove pretty well but I got ran off the road twice...blatently blocked on the front straight while passing a driver ultimately pushing me off the road and literally jacked twice one of which pushed me off the road all the way to the wall on turn one due to someone careening thru the corner (truly not even close to making it). I went from 13th to 5th scratch free until that crap which put me back to 9th. Also in the same race at the end had a run on 7th and 8th but got hit by the 8th place driver while passing as he spun out. Not his fault...just my shatty luck. Overall...very sloppy racing in B. I could easily put in 4 SI but I will not. If anyone watches the replay from my car you will easily see these infractions. I did make one braking mistake coming off the grass into the sharp left but I didnt cause any damage or places that I could see. I apologize to whoever it was I had to cut in front of. Having said that...to the person who blatently blocked me and the person who used me for a cornering assist...an apology would have been nice. You know who you are.

I should point out at this juncture that the person involved has since acknowledged his part in this.

Much appreciated dude Cheers

Glad to hear there has been some contact - eventually!

However, it doesn't detract from the fact that there was, potentially, 3 stewards inquiry cases to answer involving one person over just 2 corners Shocked
