Sorry for this rant in advance.So in the second race, I started in 4th, and quickly got on 1st with help of the mid-drive from the Rapid GT. After defening my ass off from a Surano, Comet and some more cars, I was entering the final two corners to enter the fourth lap I believe. Then, because Dex916 was getting impatient, I got a intentional pit done on me. This caused me to get caught in the field of cars behind me, so I was furious of losing my proud 1st position. And then I get turned into by a black Comet ( don't remember who), and get massive air over the rock in the final corner. I was going insane. I was one of the best battles I ever had, and it's just... taken from me.
Why didn't I call anyone out? My microphone is connected, but won't work for some reason. Has been doing so for a few days now, I'm on it. Also I couldn't do it in chat, because by that time the cars would already be miles ahead._______________________________________But what irritates me the most: Nobody waited. Why?I thought people in NoDo would be able to see if you take someone out, lag hit or not. endersai even mentioned he wanted to see clean racing, because that's more important than getting the win ( same with me). This was because the third season was cancelled halfway, due to people not driving clean. I had some great battles these two races. Thanks Grumples_Plox (grimreaper977) for the suprise of seeing another Furore GT in the first race. Thanks endersai for the amazing battle which lasted a few laps, and also for hosting all this. Thanks Codex_PT84✈🚁🚘 for showing up in the JackSheepe colors, for the team spirit. Thanks for everyone for showing up and having some battles with me here and there, but this incident ruined everything for me. No, I do not have the incident recorded, as my Action Replay wasn't on at the time.But in a nutshell, if this is what I am to be expected at the SATCC, I might aswell step out. I don't want to race with people who can't see that they take someone out.

Why did you not call out even in text chat about black comet? There were very few black comets and we could have had this resolved. It was a very fun couple of races for me. Fighting at the back or back of midpack. I didn't really practice as much as I did with LMS, and it was fun because of it -- I didn't care that I was losing seconds as long as I kept up. I didn't DNF in either of them so it's good enough for me. I am not happy with my laptime for the second race but well what can you do.  My control was little lacking for the 9F because I was thinking we were going to be racing the first car exclusively and first few laps were full of chokes, so sorry for miscontrols and incidents in the second race especially from my part. |

But what irritates me the most: Nobody waited. Why?GTA netcoade latency. Its very common. Its the reason the "IT DIDN'T HAPPEN ON MY SCREEN" meme exists. There's been plenty of times i've taken someone out without realizing it, and have been taken out without them realizing it. Its the responsibility of: a.) The driver to have awareness of their surroundings, and noticing when they may have taken someone out. If the driver is uncertain if there was a take out, just ask; "Esperante, was that my fault, should I wait?" and b.) (in this case, you) The victim. Not everyone's gonna notice when they take someone out all of the time, and not everyone's gonna ask. So as the victim, YOU have to speak up. Calmly and politely state "CHill, you took me out, you black sonova bitch." If your mic is broken, type their name. If you don't want to type it, you can't really complain, to be blunt about it. |

I don't want to race with people who can't see that they take someone out. I'm sorry, but I think your attitude wasn't appropriate. Those were test races, I don't want to know how you'd react in a real race if you lose a valuable position because someone laghit you and maybe didn't notice. I understand it's frustrating and all, I don't use a mic so i usually dont call out people in textchat either if it wasn't a major thing but if you don't have a mic (or its not working) then that's something you have to deal with. I would be very surprised if you could say you've never had someone say "you took me out" and on your screen nothing happened. It USUALLY is noticeable if you take someone out with a laghit but not always. You should've either called them out, or remembered their name and talked to them or endersai about it after the race. It's not just the crashes in season 3 that somewhat ruined the otherwise good experience i had. It was also people just spreading a bad mood and attitude over things that could be solved in an adult way. Ragequitting is not helping anyone, it's always sad for me and distracts me when people ragequit, even if i had nothing to do with the incident. You could've kept driving and tested your car, even if it's not at the front. I don't have anything against you, i just wanted to say my opinion on this because people getting an attitude really drags my mood down with them even if i've got nothing to do with the actual problem. |

Chill, you misspelled "poofread" Esp, you really do need to call out when that happens. Australia is a haven of lag and so we're quite used to being hit by people who don't see us. The remedy is to call out, not ragequit. Guys, really happy with today's racing and the professionalism shown. You did really well. See you for round two.  And if you want to change cars, go ahead. |

Calmly and politely state "CHill, you took my out, you black sonova bitch." Yeah, real polite  But I second what Chill and Herz have said. While it is the responsibility of the driver to be aware of everything around them, the victim is equally responsible for calling people out. I'm rehashing what Chill said so I'll stop here. Thanks endersai for the races, I've had a lot of fun Even if I'm off the pace quite significantly  |

I didn't crash into you, the Comet(Brownish with a nodo logo I think) crashed into me, then I went into you. He never waited so I thought it was just the thing to do. I got taken out at least 4 times through out the event and no one waited. In hindsight. I felt real bad for the next few laps, but I got taken out by another car and thought if everyone else does it, why should I feel bad? |

Thanks endersai for the races, I've had a lot of fun Even if I'm off the pace quite significantly Guys, don't worry about being on pace. You learn as you go. Focus on being a great racer, and a fun racer. Saber and I finished 10th and 11th on race 2. Saber's netted a podium finish and I've managed a 6th place. We're quicker than our results, and yet that doesn't matter. What matters is the quality of the battles, and the fun we had. Everyone from the vets group i spoke to afterwards said it was the best fun they've had in an SATCC-linked event in months. That's a success from my point of view, not finding someone half a second quicker than the front runners. |

So, next day. Still quite pissed about what happened.
If I get taken out due to lag with just me and another car involved, I'm not really bothered too much.
But the fact that almost the entire front group of cars were crashing because of my incident, and yet everyone carried on. That hurts to see.
I'm not blaming anyone for the incident, I thought @ just crashed into me to get me out of the way. But what he said it was a Comet who crashed into him, and maybe said Comet also got him from the back.
Maybe for the next Driver test, a virtual safety car should be used, so everyone still can get back into the race instead of having to give up. (I went from 1st to 24th, in a Rapid GT you'll never catch up)

Still going on about this..
The event was "Young Driver Test" ,, key point is TEST.
Your rage quit showed the mentality we dont want.. "i got crashed, no one waited, im quitting"
You should have carried on with the race, had fun at what ever place you were in, discussed the situation like adults after the event.
