BST V8 Challenge S3 | COMPLETED

[Strawman Andy]

I went on the grass. I wasn't trying to overtake him. I was struggling for grip and he was going slow so i just took to the kerb/grass to avoid hitting him

 

[RacerPaul]

I always seem to miss the drama. What's been going on?

Andy this was lap 2 fella your tyre grip was at its optimum??

This has gone way past this incident its hardly important now its whats gone on after. And the feedback which i am getting from admin has made my position more difficult then any of you can imagine.

I think dealing with incidents could be sensitive, people can get upset and emotional, and cause not by the moderators acceptable language on the forum. ITs best delt with on a PM bases. Let me make a proposal.

1, We need a couple of stewards in each racing room, ie some of us will also be stewards.

2, If someone has a racing infringement to report (a protest), he should send a PM to the stewards (olny) no later than 24 hours after race finish. The PM should include:
- Description of the incident and which drivers are involved
- Lap and corner of the incident
- Nothing should be posted on the forum. If so, the "protest" will be invalid.

3, The stewards will send a PM to the other driver(s) giving them a chance to tell "their story".

4, The stewards make a decision which is final and cannot be challenged.

I think following above, dealing with racing incidents will be simpler, less emotional, and we as a racing league will be happier in the long run. Its not that complicated.

Having said that, here is where an indepndant body like PURE could add value.

With respect JK2 most of the above is in place already the fact that it escalated on the public thread is a puzzle to me. Its not any of our style in general that i am sure about.

Not your fault fella we have a stewards group which was set up in season 2 amongst other things, so it wouldnt be something you are aware of not to worry.

Syjones...

I've just seen the incident you were concerned about and although there was no
malice intended on my part, I admit it was a sloppy, inconsiderate move

My apologies to you 👍

 

[Strawman Andy]

Andy this was lap 2 fella your tyre grip was at its optimum??

It doesnt feel like it. The car slides around and understeers a lot with tyre wear on

Ok dude, Gedis over it no ones lining you up to be shot down we all have to be able to except critisism when required sometimes, most of us have at some time or another i nearly cried after one of Kingsakerys telling offs once its not personal just something us racers need to get off our chests. Ive seen the incident its not the end of the world but all 4 wheels were on the grass so you made a mistake take it onboard and move on. Ive watched your race as has another driver we both agreed you and Gedi for that matter on the whole drove a very clean fair race the biggest mistake was my draft shunt someone shout at me please! Maybe Gedi didnt put his point across quite how it was ment he will admit hes a little fiery at times but his heart i promise you is in the right place both of us care deeply about making this a place you all want to spend your monday evenings. Ive asked Gedi via psn if you guys can hook up and put this mess behind you so we can all move on me being in the middle isnt helping much what do you think Andy?

As for nextweeks race im currently mulling over postponing until the following monday something that has been suggested to me by a fellow old toad news of this decision will follow shortly your understanding would be welcome

I don't really know why JB is posting that here as he is refering to PSN messages.

I meant to say, 'may not' but whatever..

And because he knows Gik is able to see the message's as such here and if he wants a quick reply Gik will be able to see that messages have been sent.

Stu

You can only have so any USB accessories though, a wheel takes up one, I need the other for my mic, then I may need one for my iPhone, DS3, USB flash disk or my mobile internet thing if I move it into my room so it's closer to my PS3.

All that and I only have 2 USB's in my PS3

Sure that's more money again, it's all a scam to make you buy more things.

I've lived with the problem for a bit now so I can continue with it

I know he can read them I just thought it would be quicker messaging him via PSN.
