A bit late, but here is the race from my POV. I had a horrible start with 3 incidents straight away. They were a combination of my unawareness of the bad braking of the casco, laggs and desync. Anyway, had a few great battles with Xepy★̅ , The_Bad_Loser , CHill , my teammate Superstepa_ and Blade died for our sins at the end of the race. Btw. Johnny, at 1:13:40 you can see our "incident" from my perspective. Thanks for letting me go  , there was nothing I could have done to prevent this. All in all I enjoyed this race very much. No idea what happened but at 0:45 I had my only issue I think, somehow I think the purple Stinger that put you around moved over onto me and then I guess something laggy happened and I was hit and lost control skimming over that water entrance bit (missing the checkpoint) before having to get back on the road the other side of the bridge and drive backwards for that checkpoint lol. Blade died for our sins I hope that the lag is fixed soon, it's the worst thing ever having the latency I do and laggy people in general do. Some of the "top drivers" don't even wait for clear lag hits let alone the newer less experienced ones in the playlists each day towards the rear where I start and can't get out of because of it (and my bad driving). |

Guys I'm glad this went well and was fun. Special thanks to Oh_Darn and Grumples_Plox (grimreaper977) for stepping up and helping me out while I was fixing a fairly fucked up PC. I'm back though and looking forward to some more Masters series. See you all at Spa. Sugar_Free_Nos - event completed. |

I was that purple stinger so I apologize to both @dnl_Jackson and misssnugglesI was confused what happened, I spun out Dnl_Jackson which was not a laggy incident I think, but I don't really remember much from the race, but for some strange reasons I remember you coming from my right. I went on the brakes too much because after I make a crash I have an instant instinct to stop without considering there might be people behind me and I think seeing from jackson's video snuggles lagingly crashed into me. I waited for jackson but I probably should have for snuggles too. She overtook me later anyway so I guess all is good? I still think everything that happened was entirerly my fault, didn't expect jackson to come there where he did. So again apologizes. |

We were side by side a bit too close together and you taped my rear. That happens sometimes. Your and snuggles incident looked like a huge lagg on my screen. |

Unless it's malicious I don't mind if people don't wait but I think you did wait, when I got back on the track you were behind me still (took me a little), I just had to go back for the checkpoint too. Lag is the worst and just amplify mistakes and stuff. Lag is pretty much always the cause in first lap things if I've learnt anything from the daily playlists, people usually don't just be an ass about it, just lag puts their cars in different places. I could have taken it slower around the crash but I thought there was space. Hope you didn't take my message the wrong way, wasn't calling you or anyone out just it was a crazy thing that happened. It's all good. =) |

Stinger was my first classic so I won't sell it but it's true it's the worst thing ever.

I know this is kinda reviving an old dead thread but I just remembered I recorded the beginning of the race with the R* editor. If anyone with actual skill with the R* editor wants to do something with it I've uploaded the clips to dropboxclip 1 is pretty much nothing happening if you wanna do a sweeping shot of the cars or something clip 2 has the actual start watching it again I remembered how insanely lucky I got at the start. I got a really good start, was one of the first cars moving and went really wide onto the sand, got the mid-drive, came within an inch of a pole while in the air thanks to a hidden bump and a bush and finally saved it. It was stupid and risky and paid off so well |
