Some dirty driving.

I had quite a good race at Interlargos today, Got 2nd place and had a really good battle all race with the guy who got 3rd, He tapped me abit hard into turn 1 on the 3rd lap but acknowledged his mistake and and backed off a few car lengths. I forgot his name but I really enjoyed that little fight.
This sounds very similar to a race I had last night on interlagos. Was it me?! Lol. I don’t recall your name but I did tap someone on turn one and backed off.
 
Interlagos was insane. Went from 6 to last before half of one lap was complete, and something similar on my second attempt.
Got out of there and went back to Nurb GP, which was pretty much a crap shoot as well, but, at least i know that track better.
Now, I get when someone goes for a spot, and contact may happen. I'm ok with that, someone racing me, I watch my mirrors and if someone has a run or pokes their nose in I'll just give them the line, better to loose a spot and race it back than ruin a race because "the rules say"...

Having said that, the amount of people that would literally change their line last minute in order to hit me was unbelievable. One in particular;

Started on pole and had the dreaded run down to the first chicane. I deliberately went down the middle... I left a full lane+ inside, and the entire track to the preferred side... 2nd place takes the outside, perfect, 3rd comes screaming down the inside, good, lots of room for him to shoot past... and at the last second when he realizes he's way to fast, swerves out of his line and into the back of me... I don't know how to upload, but I had to watch it again and again. Good news is he must have done something to 2nd as well, because they got into it and Mr. Punt got wiped off the track hard into the sand, bye bye. I was running 2nd down but with 4 laps... anyways, got the win due to 10sec penalty on car that started 2nd.
In another race I got wrecked early (pretty common) and was trying to catch back up when I went by a car going slow, figured he was doing a "build my SR run", very next corner punt... catch him back up, he's going slow, I go by, very next corner, punt... this lasted for 3 laps. It was comical. After the first 2 or 3 I realized there was nothing to be done, and just tried to take as fast an entry as possible hoping he'd miss me, but this gut was quick and had some talent.
Wow.
This is hilarious to read lol
 
Omg! Just had a great race at Bathurst... Until the last corner! Some very close very clean racing, nine laps of bumper to bumper, never touching, racing. I started 11th got up to 5th, then 4th, held that until the last corner.
Imagine my sheer dread on the last lap, when as if from nowhere, and I'm talking a good few seconds back 1 lap ago, a BEETLE appears in my rear view! I knew it wasn't going to end well, it couldn't possibly end well :nervous: Sure enough, he took a dive down the inside at the last corner from a mile back, I left him enough space as I knew he would do it, and if I didn't leave space I was going into the barrier. But then because I had went so wide to let him through I touched the grass with my back wheel and round I go. Ended up 9th. Beetles are the scourge of this game!!

Thats the worst that can happen I am feeling with you mate
 
I was in a race with you, well, I was in a race, and you were too, I was not competitive with you...
My point, that livery is amazing... Normally I don't give gussied up cars any notice, but that was very well done.

Well much thanks dude 👍 I figure if I ever win people might aswell get to see a cool looking car :sly: But I haven't won yet.
 
some dirty ramming by papageo....something something from brazil i cant remember the name..but 2 races now i qualify pole him in 2nd and rams me on purpose. also brake checks at the end...frustrating.

Lol, I just thought I'd put this here to show how clean a driver I am :lol:

Todays Gr3 ten laps of blue moon, I went from dead last to 7th without touching a single car or barrier and was clearly the only person in the room to do so :sly:

^^^^^it amazes me how many players still launch themselves at the first left hand turn on the anti-clockwise circuit and expect to get around at full speed in 6th gear!

I would say that the one race I did there today, at least 90% of the field were red or white. I myself went from 12th to 5th, and ended with a blue B.
