Ok I know it's been a couple days but that's about how long I took to recover from this thing. It ended just after 9pm here and try as I might I couldn't keep my eyes open much longer after that. I went to bed by 11... I was so exhausted.
But I do have some things to say and comment on:
Don't ever join another race on this forum. You are a dirty prick who can't make a pass without bouncing off and forcing your opponent into the grass. Then you refused to give me my position back. Learn to drive stupid ricer you don't belong here. Keep on re-enforcing the stereotype you're doing a wonderful job of it. Don't ever join another race on this forum.
Seriously, STFU! Just because you had a simple bump doesn't mean you should ruin the race for everyone else by turning your mic on to drop a bunch of F bombs and derogatory comments for the next 10 minutes. Maybe if you didn't waste your time turning on your mic to annoy everyone you could have caught up. It was less than 4 minutes into a 4 hour race! If you'd have stuck around you certainly could have caught him, and maybe you'd have managed 3rd or 4th. I bet you'll rage even more knowing he dropped about 30 minutes after you finally left.
Like I said, there was a clear gap, i took it, we came together. I had obvious inside line into that corner. If you watch racing then you'll see that bumps happen alot.
As mentioned in the post after this one, you dove into the corner when you didn't need to. Final lap, ok... make hot-headed moves if you absolutely have to. But on the first lap of a 4 hour race, be more patient. The only passing that should have been done in this race is on the straight sections, or at the most if you manage a faster corner exit somewhere and you can get by safely. Trying to beat someone INTO a corner is not the way to do it. Use your brakes and wait it out... most often the person will eventually overload from stress with you in their mirror that they will make a mistake and you can pass them with little effort at all.
AMG DTM, you need to go and race this race for real in a fast car and whoop their a$$es, lol.
After much thought about how I should reply to this I have decided that it's actually a good idea. That way when he takes his first turn going 20 mph too fast and his tires don't magically increase their grip, he can crash and then give up on driving for good. Seriously 1st and 2nd were a wash... of course you could still drive easily after 4 hours when you let the game do all the hard work.
Thanks everyone who joined in. really enjoyed it, was hard work though, four hours is a long time. the 2nd to 3 hour i was struggling, i set my fasted lap on lap 2 which says it all really
Same here. Lap 2 was the best, everything else was just trying to get there again.
The end was super close though! Clock ticking down in the last minute after AMG finished and I was catching Loskey and being caught quickly by Jav! Sorry if the contact caused you to spin btw Losk, was a pretty tense situation, clearly got the better of me lol, all 3 of us separated by about 5 secs in the end though, pretty damn close for 4 hrs racing
I saw quite a bit of action throughout the race... There was a 3 way battle for 2nd place for about the first hour or so, we were all within 15 seconds for a few laps.
OMG, I think I pinched a nerve in my neck doing that thing yesterday, I can hardly lean back or side to side. Seriously considering not doing another one of those unless I can find a chair with a head rest, that doesnt cost as much as that exorbitant playseat.
Find yourself an AK Rocker on craigslist. that's what I did.
