Phil, don't be like that. We all have bad days. If you feel you are not able to race closely, let the big boys go and get comfortable at the back and pick off the stragglers. But don't give it up bud. These are fun races and are for gaining experience and having fun, that's it. Don't worry about others, do your own thing, relax and if you have to say sorry, so be it, but keep plugging at it. We can't all be racing gods.

Thanks Andy appreciate the kind words

Great fun again, thanks guys!
I made a few errors at the beginning of both races and had to battle back through the field but fell short on time to give Marius a good battle.
Phil we all have those days hope to see you again as enjoy racing with you!

Massive apology for the "world of tanks" job i did on you at turn one,Thanks for the kind words.

If anyones interested in how I managed to get off the start line so quick,I started in second gear to get better traction as normally i spend half a lap wheel spinning.

I don't know what's happening I'm not going into these races to be competitive I'm in it for fun,but for some reason i've caused a few incidents lately for which i apologise.I'm gonna disappear for a while,I'll be in the forums but not races,Hope you all have a excellent christmas and a happy new year,I wish you all health wealth and happiness.Once again sorry,Cheers.

Keep on racing and trying mate, practice makes it perfect. Don't be like me where a single incident makes me kick a clothing bucket after I quit the race and cut my left foot and thumb (the scar is still here though hehehe).

Even though I race in the front pack of RD, I took a considerable time to understand these cars, it's all a matter of getting the car nails right and the rest should be just "fly, baby, fly".

Practice makes your racecraft better.

I have almost 300 hours wheel-rotated → in R3E only.

That's how to do a proper roadblock

Why? I haven't given any spoilers or clicked on Velopl's spoilers even though Darth Vader is Luke's father.

Because the travelling roadblock will strike again

roadblock

Seems like very effective fuel-save strategy.

Fellas, I'm afraid I'm going to have to pass on this one. The better half just got the afternoon off and has decided it would be better to go "shopping" than me and Kenny having a picnic on the beach at Mid Ohio. Apologies

Lorenzo Bonder · Dec 18, 2015

Let me clarify. My post meant 63 hours, but it's 63 hours only in R3E.

If we going with racing overall, then it's over 420h+ of racing

Checked now - 333 hours (nice number) only in R3E, then I think one/third in GSCE and dozens of weeks in Wacky Wheels. Maybe still having some bad habits from WW...

Gerbuho · Dec 18, 2015

I want to apologize for that stupid mistake I made. I feel really bad. Particularly sincere apologies to @eckeisback for ruining his race.

I think you were not in TS so I have to tell the embarrassing thruth here: I hit the clutch instead of the break, sorry.

Velopl · Dec 18, 2015

I'm really sorry for the first corner guys! Just before first corner I had some lag and split second later I was just on someone's a**... Hit brake but too late I'm really sorry

Phil Shillitoe · Dec 18, 2015

I wondered what happened @Velopl! Apology accepted mate. All i knew was that out of nowhere I ended up head first in to a brick wall with a broken engine! There isnt a replay feature in mp (that i know of?!) so couldn't see what happened! Up until then, it had gone well, qualifying 4th.
