Some good and amusing racing has happened today, but not in the way that I envisioned
.
First race of the two today, was Race A in a Fit. Already seeing and feeling carnage at the first corner, a blue Fit pushed me wide and I went from pole to third place, however that would not be my biggest concern... but rather, my fellow Argentinean. It was shocking to have to race someone like this, and I'm honestly considering not even going into Race A anymore for the rest of the week, and instead mainly doing Race C. This person, in the white Demio, had a really bad attitude when I gave him some fight, by defending my position on lap 3 after getting a pretty bad run out of the first corner. Instead of passing around me, he decided to pass through me; but matter is a thing and I exist, so I suffered the consequences
.
What was even MORE shocking, was the fact he only got a 4 second penalty for ruining the race, and the fact that said 4 second penalty only slows him down to around 100km/h. It should honestly slow you down to 50km/h, at least, so you really feel the speed loss. Nevertheless, I ended up in an undeserved second place, and this was the chat after the race:
Translation since I doubt a lot of you speak Spanish:
-Me (EBF_Natalie): @Fabio46River nice one, thanks
-Fabio46River: @EBF_Natalie idiot race well son of a 🤬 You are very slow idiot
-Me: It's called defending you 🤬
-Me: You aren't racing alone you egghead
-Fabio46River: You run me wide and not let me by idiot learn to drive (at this point I saved and watched the replay to see where I ran them wide, which was
****ing nowhere because there was no contact until they made contact. Think it was their shocking internet, the Mars Curiosity Rover has better ping than they do
!)
-Me: I didn't run you wide
-Fabio46River: Learn idiot
In fact, here's a video of the race.
He should just go and pursue a career at some fighting championship, effin' nonce... Anyway, after that shocking experience, I decided to just wait for Race C to start, and I just wanted to have some fun. So I picked the memelord of Gr.3 cars

The Peugeot PEUGEOT VGT Gr.3 (when will PD learn...
) is actually not a bad car around Catalunya, pretty quick on the straights and not uncontrollable on corners. Sure it's a bit hard to drive, but it looks and sounds fantastic! I actually quite enjoyed running it. If anybody does want to try it, I suggest brake balance -4, that's what I was running and it was quite consistent. It does require some getting used to, though.
Photo from the race, look at that camber! Ugh, such a nice looking car...
... in my opinion, of course. And yes, that behind is an RCZ, since it was memelord central in that race, Peugeot 1-2 in qualifying pace
. In fact, everything about that race was memelord like. After it finished, I stayed a while to look at the chat, and there were some accusations being thrown out in there...
So, once more, I saved the replay and watched it. I ran quite cleanly and without issue, but a few seconds behind... 🤬 was going DOWN! Here's a montage of all the good that came out of that race, people playing bowling / baseball, going for overtakes ala Pastor Maldonado, it was just a crapshow. SR S my back bumper, watching that I felt like I was watching Wreckfest and not Gran Turismo Sport!
And, to top it off, victory for the memelord! Salve

BTW, nice lap @sturk0167.
. Still, it was fair and respectful, although I'm tired of getting attacked solely by Fits
