Also next time I race I'm going to use the cushier set up in the house out of the way of distractions. Racing, kids bed time, screaming kids. Honestly I couldn't cope, especially with all the incidents in the race.

I think you all noticed I wasn't on my top game. I had my usual GTA race flaw were I jump out of the car because I strangle my controller, like 7 or 8 times. Didn't want to quit cause I was still having fun, but tried not to screw someone elses race up. When I was very certain I wasn't gonna lose any more positions I parked on the side by the pits (irl pitstop was highly needed) and I end up being respawned when I came back. @everyone: Sorry if you got caught up in my pinballmachine. I tried not to.

Hey guys, pretty smooth event in my opinion, or at least from my point of view, although I lost my bifta in pre lobby ? start was a little messy must admit, sorry for leaving everyone for dust but had to give Craig a run for his money at least and I wasn't going to let him run away with it haha but yeah I had some great laps, managed to catch, pass and pull away from him before I made some mistakes and caught back markers and just couldn't keep enough composure to catch him, congrats on the win though buddy and Harry thanks a lot for the event, loved the qually set up etc and hope to see another event from you soon! ?? keep it pinned guys✊ Attachments:

Hey guys, pretty smooth event in my opinion, or at least from my point of view, although I lost my bifta in pre lobby ? start was a little messy must admit, sorry for leaving everyone for dust but had to give Craig a run for his money at least and I wasn't going to let him run away with it haha but yeah I had some great laps, managed to catch, pass and pull away from him before I made some mistakes and caught back markers and just couldn't keep enough composure to catch him, congrats on the win though buddy and Harry thanks a lot for the event, loved the qually set up etc and hope to see another event from you soon! ?? keep it pinned guys✊ Wasn't your problem mate. It stated in the op what to do at the start and Harry also said what to do and Craig chose to ignore it and just go. Regardless of the situation I still waited and you were both gone. I made a few mistakes had to put twice and that's when I got caught up in everyone else's mishaps and when I got tipped over I just thought you know what I'm done. I was apologised to etc so it's all good. But apart from that I love the track although I was having problems carrying lots of speed through the first corner. If I kept to the inside I weren't going fast enough. But if I went wide I kept hitting the potholes and almost spinning out. But yeah loved the track and besides of what happened it was a really good event.

I'm definitely gonna keep it in my bookmarks. DR_PEPPERZ_: could you change the settings so that only the Bifta (customized) is permitted? Or change the description so it says "Bifta only!" or something like that? Yesterday I sucked harder then a Dyson, but on a good day I've had great fun when I didn't hit every obstacle imaginable with Duchartre and Zigg. Let's just say I wasn't supposed to be driving irl due to 'circumstances' That f-ed it up for me

Sorry for speeding off a little early but I got abit carried away. I wasnt paying attention to my mini map to see where u guys were. But I personally dont think the race wud of been any different otherwise. Me and pegleg were really going for it and respect to pegleg, he had some good speed carry on the corners and was taking lines id never even thought of. Races like that it all comes to being consistent and holding ur composure. but all in all it was a great event. My first ever proper bifta race. Well done DR_PEPPERZ_.

You can't say it would have been any different. For example I myself would have been posting similar lap times and every time I looked at mini map before my mishaps you were in the same place every lap. Then there are the other guys. We would have all been a lot closer and it would have been a completely different race if you paid enough attention. But yeah gg anyway you won!

I don't understand y we bothered with a rolling start anyways. The start line was big enough for a grid formation.
