My Corvette has a few hundred miles and I think 1 win since I did 1 A-Spec race with it I pretty much use my car just for this league :)
 
@ Mitch

That sure is a lot of miles.. I don't think I have any car w/ that much, other than cars from the UCD.. But I'll have to check.
 
Used it in the Supercar seasonal to grind my way up to 20mil....Took longer than the Ferrari seasonal but I'd rather pass Ferraris (:sly:) than drive them.

I'm going to say it, If Rocko and Klassykid dont significantly fix their driving behavior on track I would like them to be removed from the next race & remaining races of the series. Their actions and behavior on track were horrid and not acceptable.

Their continual crashing each other, and complete disreguard for others on track is appalling and has no place in this series imo.

Thanks :) I've been having a guilt trip all day waiting for this to happen :indiff: so thanks for ending it before I exploded :) I am feeling like an idiot though :indiff: :guilty: so yes punish me :) :guilty:

You're saying BAN someone..........the ban should be for you. Screwing around the entire race is BS. Your car looked like you pulled it out of a tree grinder. You can't hold a racing line and you drive cars that are not in you class and faster than you into the walls. Since you are the slower car by far you are supposed to give the faster car room. Through Daytona two yo were low so I went high and you drove up right in fron of me. Then rather than breaking like you are supposed to going into the chicane because you car is heavier and less breaking power than the LMP I was driving you decided that you are going to out break me which means you end up driving me straight into the wall. In earlier posts you blamed it on your tires which fromt he replay you had about 4 laps on that set and they were fine. BOTTOM LINE YOU CAN'T DRIVE. You say I turned into you.......listen to what Mitch said about that. There's a guy that knows racing. YOU ARE A CLOWN and if we race together again and you drive like that it is going to give this series a reputation that it does not deserve. LEARN HOW TO DRIVE AND THEN COME RACE.
 
Harsh but atleast someones said it....

He means ban the McLaren tho (even tho it was outpaced by the Ruf by a mile at Daytona...) not ban me from racing.
 
mitch: no one cares how many wins your stupid car has ;)

everyone else: this arguing crap was the downfall of LMES. If something should be penalized point it out to gogatrs in video and let him handle it with penalties, then let it go and move on to the next race with a calm and focused demeanor. Just my 2 cents because rocko and others don't seem particularly ill-mannered about the contact they caused (do we need to bring up sugarglider???), so penalizing avoidable contact etc. should be enough. If that means banning from races or whatever just let the series director (gogatrs) decide on it. Simple that way we don't have to become enemies pointlessly.

Just curious, who's Sugerglider?
 
I haven't seen gatrs post in this for ages, seems he's ditched this series because of his PS3 going kaput. Chronic PITA but it looks like he's more focused on setting up a GTP governing body instead of governing his currently running series...
 
It's okay no one listens to me when it comes to me trying to mediate fights anyway lol.

Oh wait I forgot no text speak.

I'm laughing out loud :)

I SECOND that.........However KlassyKid was great when the S--- For Brains Sparty was not around. I drove around Klassy several times and he holds a line gave plenty of room and he seemed to have been using his mirrors to watch for faster cars coming up on him. I vote to keep Klassy but ditch "The Douche" Sparty.

I don't mean ban Mitch at all......You seemed to have a good idea how to drive/race. It is Rocko100/Sparty that needs to take it back to training school before he tries to race in this series again. That_Guy_2 said that this was a series for people that knew what they were doing, no screwing around, and quality racing. As far as Sparty is concerned.......I have seen better driving out of my 6 year old nephew. Only one word to describe it....CLOWN.
 
I've only got a good idea of how to race because I actually do race IRL, that's generally why dirty driving gives me the biggest s***s because I know what the real world consequences are of such actions...

IRL really???? Class/Division????
 
Haven't raced in competition as a full time driver for aaaaaaages (like go karts back in 2002 or so), I've really just been a 'gun for hire' since then. Most of the drives I've gotten have been endurance racing and that's largely to knowing people and getting to be a part of some projects, but that's where my story ends (confidential...).

Too ostentatious? :dopey:
 
But who was sugarglider?
 
Use the 'search this thread' button and put in sugarglider661, all your questions will be answered.

Very cool......I have done a bit of racing myself. Mostly circle track such as go-karts, and stock cars (late models). Road racing that I have done was on two wheels where I ran a 2003 Kawasaki ZX6R 636.
 
I've only ever been to Spa once :( always wanted to go back (was hoping to be driving MP4-12C GT3 #60 but got turned down in favour of having Roger Wills :grumpy:). Too bad it's not in GT5, I'll be taking my racing to FM4 when it comes out.

And mad respect for going fast on 2 wheels, that just scares the crap out of me about as much as rally driving thru a forest....lol.
 
Going fast on two wheels is a different animal. Tons of fun though. Cheapest way to hit 180 mph. The best part was topping out then throwing it into a corner completely leaned over dragging a knee at about 120. No room for error.
 
I had forgotten about sugarglider
 
That's what the whole 'McLaren rustbucket' joke is about, when he claimed it'd be uncompetitive and outdated he obviously didn't know it's actual potential.
 
He "dive-bombed" jav and that was the end...
 
Apparently more people than just Jav, then had the ego to go saying he was the fastest car on track and someone else won only because he made mistakes....I think he's buggered off back to those oh so awesome shifterkarts he was bragging about.
 
What was wrong with team authentic?
