Btw If my guess is correct, Max is still leading Nien Shiza in points by 2+ points.

With Roscoe's power failure in week one and Piihb unable to race week two and his lag issue last night, NSA has had a bit of back luck to start the year, not to worry, it is a long season and these boys will be at the top of the driver standings by year's end and Nein Shiza will be gunning for the Team Title!

Thanks to these guys for their patience and skill set to teach an old dog new tricks.

...the gloves are off on the last lap....but hireds tiny hands are made of lead

it is definitely going to get interesting during the rest of the season and will be fascinating to see who comes out on top

Me and jpn had a pretty close battle for pretty much the second half of the race, far too close for my liking. I came out of the final turn wide withall four wheels on the rumble strip and we were side by side pretty much all the way to the line. The RUF was just a little faster, and i mean just

That was a great finish Rosco didn't know this was a rally car and a demolition derby all wrapped in one that's awesome. Good thing I jumped the standing start or you would have beat me lol.

That aston in headed to the scrap yard we totaled it Rosco.

Wish I could have seen that finish of you two in the grass. That was a dirty move hired, jumping that automatic launching standing start. You gotta teach me that one.

I will be starting classes on how to jump an automatic start on Wednesday you should sign up classes will run from 8:00 pm to 8:01 pm . Then at 8:02 we will go over the difference of tire lock up under breaking and no tire lock up under breaking and what happens to the car in these instances.

My caddy is going on the shop wall....well a couple walls lots of little pieces

For the record, I was not the one that made the "Jump Start" comment, it was another driver that was wrecked out in the first corner. My point was, why try to make up for the spots you lost in the first turn because lag sent you to the back of the field? Three rookies in front of you, maybe wait until, oh I don't know, a cleaner spot on the track, you're a fast, veteran driver, didn't make sense to me. We had three restarts because of 1st turn pileups from the front of the field, 50 laps to go, what was the rush?

Anyway, I'm going to take that first corner breaking mishap as a learning experience, thank you Hired, lesson learned champ.

That extra horsepower really showed itself on that straight. See U next race buddy. I'll b that one in the slower F50 of the Fly Emrades crew. Great race btw. You shut the door on me a couple times and just powered away. My kryptonite (the kinck) was killing me ALL RACE LONG! ... But we'll met again... U can bet on it.

ps... congratulations to sublime and sainted
Skinly my "Irish" friend two things you cheated the system last week and got a pi bump ...ok fine...
then you run a second faster then the Whole class....ok but know this if you see a caddy... RUN
"We don't take kindly to cheaters round hear"!!! Deuce's....

Thank you. It was cleanness that saved my race, I had no intentions of beating anyone (Caddys included). I was running mid 14's until i tweaked some things right before qualling. And Ill chalk that one up in my book as a win Although i still cant get over matt getting 400+ft on me with engine damage. Hats off. Thats my choice for performance of the week.

First we only restarted once for a wreck in turn 1. The other two restarts were for lag outs on the first lap and second lap.

Second the so called rush its called racing get what you can when you can I don't have 660+ pi. If you don't lock up and was able to hold your line there would have been no contact. I didn't say anything about it because stuff like that happen I have locked up and hit people its racing. Had you not run your mouth and denied that you locked up and slid up the track that's what pissed me off.


That's all you can do is learn from it. Then next time it may turn out better.

Sn1per s problem should be solved for next race, he is sorry for what happened, is internet distributer had problems since a couple of weeks but sunday he had 67k second, it was worst then ever, is distributer said that that problem was supposed to be solved, as it was not he will change distributer before next race.

He wants to know if everything is ok for his race Pred ??

I did receive his time Gambit. I am working on the results today. I needed a day or two to cool off. I was ummm not happy about the lap 40 lag that took me out of contention for third place and ruined my race. Mad at myself a little too because when I saw the car in front of me lagging I could have slowed or went off line to the left or right until I was clearly passed whoever it was. Whatever. 9 races to go! I aint quittin I am still gonna give it 110% to get back into the points battle.

Working on the final results today.

Race Recap and Incident Report

ST

Lap 1 -Turn 5 - The #199 Honda S2000 RWD driven by Peader24 and the #33 Lexus SC300 RWD driven by Sirkane2 have slight contact that causes no damage. PENALTY - RACE INCIDENT

Lap 2 - Turn 1 - Peader24 gets into the back of JpnVR4's #79 Nissan Silva Spec-R RWD. causing moderate damage. It appeared that the two were racing closely into the turn with Peader 24 in chase. As the two went into the corner Peader 24 let off the gas and got on the brakes a bit early to prevent hitting the bumper but as he stayed close under braking JpnVR4 had to check up a second time as he started to push into the corner. It appears this second tap of the brakes caught Peader 24 offguard and the contact was created. PENALTY - RACE INCIDENT

Lap 2 - Turn 3 - Kamikaze1414 goes wide and off track. As he returns to the racing surface he does so right into the line and flow of oncoming traffic causing the #83 Scion FR-S RWD of XMan4299 to contact the right side door of Kamikaze1414's #7 Opel Speedster Turbo RWD causing significant damage to both cars and loss of control. PENALTY - 30 second Penalty and 5 Point Deduction 2 Race Probation(30 second penalty has no effect on race outcome)

There were a few incidents of other minor bumps and a lil rubbing of cars but nothing worthy of further noting.



GS

Lap 1 - Turn 1 - Dr PiiHB under braking gets alongside of Matthnt into turn 1 as the two turn in it appears the two touch ever so slightly causing the #96 Aston Martin DBS of Matthnt no damage but does cause minor damage to Dr PiiHB's #1 Cadillac CTS-V Coupe. PENALTY - RACING INCIDENT

Lap 1 - Turn 1 - Tachyon Racing {R} does not brake safely and rear ends Abramsmech17 causing significant damage and loss of control. PENALTY - 5 Point Deduction 2 Race Probation

Lap 1 - Turn 1 - Hiredgun308 makes a gutsy and risky braking move making it 4 wide into turn 1. The move causes a very slight touch (Forza contact made it react worse than it was) with #41 Cadillac CTS-V Coupe of maxximillion. The reaction to the light contact causes Hiredgun308's car to veer to the left a bit which then causes a second contact of the two and then several other cars to get involved causing minor damage to a few of them. Nice move but extra risky Hiredgun308! PENALTY - WARNING (This could have turned out much worse)

How in the world did Tommy get second with a penalty on each lap for lagging into his own room. O.O

No problem No.1 Tommy. I got it.

AS for everything else...Things will be up a little slower due to the holidays and also spending a bit more time on the figures.
