Im not complaining, Just showing my race, 1.5laps of it at least. Penalty system was very unfair as i got twice a Pen for a total of 12sec.

This is what happens when two guys are contesting the same piece of real estate. You had every right to be in that position and @ZokyCRO didn't need to punt you off on the next lap. To be honest Zoky was probably being a bit too aggressive, trying to fire down the inside and brake diagonally across the track. That wouldn't be tolerated in the league and I think it's the sign of a bad driver. But I defended brake checking someone so what do I know?

Being 100metres and 3 cars behind someone, braking too late, cutting the corner and t-boning them is not 'contesting the same piece of real estate'.

Might be an elongated method of contesting the same piece of real estate, but nevertheless you're still going to the same apex.

If I join a race and go backwards around the track, and then collide with someone, I guess you will just say we were contesting the same piece of real estate.

I explained it to you what happened and what were the reasons, with an apology. It's unacceptable on what happned and I feel very sad that I hit you twice even, because you have my huge respect on track..(I believe we had more than few excellent races together so far) All I can say there was no intention in both hits to hit anyone,unlike Matty's clear intention to ruin my first race and as it turned out the rest of the night.

End of Lap 1 on Augh = Black Flag
Hairpin in Lap 2 on Augh = FIA season Ban
Duplicate accounts negatively affecting everyone else = FIA Lifetime Ban
False accusation to other driver to divert attention from own crimes = US President nomination

Seriously, you are a really fast driver but have slipped into the "too aggressive and arrogant" category rather too easily, since the Nissan competition hype.

We all get hyped up and full of adrenalin and emotions when racing in this great game, because it feels so real, but many of us need to get a lot better at controlling our aggression and not get an over inflated sense of self importance and status, because there will always be someone faster and better (unless you are TRL Lightning, who has a great attitude anyway)!

 

[adstomko]

I just got dipped out of 60k, do I still count

Sure! I know you're fast enough. It's still currently a higher rating than mine haha, albeit I was at 72k-75k before the penalty system ruined it.

@TRL LIGHTNING is less then half my age, but I'm his fan, really! Besides of that his pace seems to be not from this world, I never sensed even the tiniest sign of any arrogance at him

That is contesting from the next 'block'.

I can almost give the benefit of the doubt for the first one since it looked like he got his braking point completely wrong, and did a panic dive up in the inside. but the 2nd hit looks totally intentional. This guy fully deserves a ban from this series.

I'm normaly not the guy jumping into conflicts of others, but since it was brought on this thread by him, I say this "accident" REALLY looks intentional.

1. If we would be talking about low DR drivers, I'd say its a typical major brake point missing. But we are talking about a driver on the very top. Its simply not possible he misses TWICE right afterwards the braking point THAT way. Besides, he had the very chance to steer his car off the track, but instead he shot Augh out.

2. Its his second account.

Just because of that everyone is getting a free cookie and a Gazoz! (of course virtually xD)

Is there a possibility for multiclass FIA events?

[OutlawQuadrnt]

I know not everyone will show their hand and run their best possible times but my laps in both Nations and Manufacturers are just outside the Top 10 in the Americas region. It's really unusual since I'm bad at Maggiore and the Jag makes Interlagos a challenge. Based on my past history, that extra speed will magically disappear and then some come qualifying and race time. Regardless, it's going to be tough to score any more points than what I already have. I've overperformed so far.

 

[05XR8]

Let's set a goal for 9th and see what happens. Rain a slow lap just to set a time.

 

[garix]

Will be interesting who will "survive" the races today. During practice my game crashed two times within one hour . And that wasn´t even in a lobby .
Anyway, good luck to all

 

[DaigoD]

Season 2 schedule is online

Nations

Manufacturers

 

[mclarenLB]

BLUE MN BAY

 

[Cabelmania]

BLUE MN BAY

Let's see what version of it before say "I'm gonna skip this one"

 

[Tidgney]

O god it says speedway though is that not the oval? I have to run it as it's group 3 as well as the PUG Group 4 car is rubbish !

Also has anyone any idea how they're going to do the Top 24 Superstars? As in 6 drivers from 1 nation are all 75k? They can only pick 3 of them?

 

[Crazy Taylor]

Does season 2 count as much as season 3?

 

[Venster]

It does for the top drivers so they get star player so they can enter top 24 races

@Tidgney
"The matching for the “Top 24 Superstars” on rounds 4 and 8 will be by point rankings. Please note that the matching for the round 4 Top 24 Superstars will be performed by the total points from rounds 1, 2, and 3."

Looks like those first 3 rounds will be crucial to the whole season.

That manufacturer's schedules looks awful for me

 

[Crazy Taylor]

They really insist on certain groups for certain tracks. Blue Moon (assuming it's oval here) Gr3 and Tokyo East on Gr4.

O i missed that line cheers Matty. So we're forced into doing the first 3 rounds to make round 4 essentially if you're in a competitive nation and 1 bad round out of those 3 and you're out of the top 3 and therefore probably going to be out of the final superstar race which has a ridiculous amount of points again... I really hope season 3 is not like this, otherwise I might just forget doing this.

That Manufacturers schedule looks ridiculous... a superstar race with group 4? The class which is impossible to balance due to fuel and tyres...
