Just to sum up my experience with this race: Got t-boned 3 times, gained places only because of disconnects,overall finished last of the people racing and got a DNF. My best lap wasn't worst tho.

My apologies to Channel X Racing for my game crashing before the start of the race, leaving me unable to contribute any points to the team as I had done last week. Here's to hoping for some better luck the next time I'm asked to do reserve duties.

What's on your heart, jeffröy? Well someone tried to overtake me by taking a corner with too much speed, guiding me into a barrier. So I had to push him out of the way to not crash, resulting in him flying off the track. And then I get called out to wait. That pisses me off and I'm kind of done with this shit. It was an example of lack of respect and patience and I see behavior like that more and more.

Oh, you're going to stay salty about it?
If you had crashed, I would have waited. If I had taken you out, I would have waited. But nah, you rationalized to yourself that I would have crashed regardless and took me out instead. And now you rationalized with the logic that it's okay to not wait because "I would have crashed anyways". You took me out, its in your footage that you sent me. If I had crashed, that would be my fault, and you wouldn't have to wait. But you made the contact, and its your responsibility what happens when you make contract. We should all know that, its in the rules.
And "Took way too much speed"? I did the mid-drive better than you, I was beside and ahead of you well before the 'braking zone' even. You normally don't even have to brake there, but going two wide, you do. And you saw well ahead of the chicane that I was on your left. I know how to take that chicane, but you obviously don't think I can for whatever reason. So how about you pay more attention instead of complaining that someone passed you and was on a sub-optimal line into a chicane?
Honestly, I don't get annoyed by this stuff that often. Shit happens in races. But hey, if you want to be passive aggressive all you want, go ahead. The race is done, the mistakes were made, if you want to stay fucking salty for the rest of the time in NoDo, go the fuck ahead. And just an FYI, I did PM you about this. We could have solved this thing privately and civilly, but nah, let's put this mess out here. Let everyone else decide what to do with this shit. Because I was, and am ready to move past this already.

Just going to give my opinion on this. jeffreyb1990 , you complain about this? Seriously? This was in no way Xepy★̅ 's fault. I qoute "Well someone tried to overtake me by taking a corner with too much speed" DUDE, it normally is a full speed chicane and his car is in front of yours so he is not overtaking you in that corner. You tried to do a stupid move into that chicane to take the position back you already lost. You are the one doing exactly what you explained Blah should have done wrong. He had the overtake done and if you just let off the throttle for just a second to merge behind him, nothing would have happened. In this situation, you were the one without respect and patience. I really expected better from you, jeffrey...

He had the overtake done and if you just let of the throttle for just a second to let him safely pass, nothing would have happened. In this situation, you were the one without respect and patience. I really expected better from you, jeffrey... Are you serious?

100% Did you even rewatch your footage? Yes and multiple people agree with me and some say we both made a mistake which I can understand from their point of view. But don't say it's completely my fault as I'm next to him and he doesn't give any space at all. So yes I push him out of the way, but only to not crash. He just goes into the corner like he's alone on track and that's a lack of respect.

I just want to say that a similar situation happened to myself and ovivoJR at the chicane. But in this case, I think both of us saw something slightly different, especially after the short chat in the channel after the race. We were both side by side, much closer to each other than in the video above, with our front ends almost lined up perfectly (I was a bit farther ahead, and I'm sure on his screen he was a bit farther, common occurrence between drivers with an ocean between them) . Since I knew it was Ovivo, I knew he could control himself well enough to do the chicane two wide at high speed, and I've had experience doing the same without any contact for either person so I was confident in my own ability. We dove in, neither willing to give up the position, and we would have made it with a nice clip of footage to go into a highlight video had my car not let go over the tiny bump in the road in the chicane, and our cars touched just enough for the game to go into "oh fuck it's a wreck! RANDOM STEERING INPUTS GO" and fuck us both. So we were both fucked at that point, spinning and flying off into a farm, and having to wait for more than half the rest of the racers to pass before a gap opened up enough for us both to get onto the track again. So, apologies to you, ovivoJR for the take out and me being salty about a bunch of small incidents that happened before and after that accident. And apologies to Sugar_Free_Nos for just up and leaving in frustration.

Does that surprise you after a ragequit? And if you would have payed attention, you would have seen that I didn't do the MDSB, you were only halfway passing me and you gave me no room whatsoever because you had to much speed to make the turn yourself.

He just goes into the corner like he's alone on track and that's a lack of respect. I really don't get your way of thinking. Let me explain my thoughts on this subject: Blah overtook you on the straight and was 3/4 in front of you heading into the chicane. You kept him on the inside, which was a really good move by you. BUT, and here comes the but, you tried to force your way through the turn as if Blah wasn't there. He broke to adjust his speed to the line he had to take, you however, plowed full speed, full throttle into that turn. I see no intention from you to slow down to make it through the corner safely. Thats why im on Xepy★̅'s side. You tried to take the optimal racing line while there was no space to do so because there was a different car, you're basically saying "he was in the line I wanted to take, so its his fault for being there".
