Yeah, come on David, he puts a lot of work in, as do the other two, not
to mention putting up a server! My advice to you is to not post on the
subject for a couple of days. Spend the time instead on the track racing
against the AI so you can work on your racecraft. Then take the
suspension like a good laddie, come back in two weeks and it will all be
forgotten.

What - take back that I feel you've made dive bomb passes on me before?  Then
I'd be lying.  It might not have been enough to cause a wreck(although there
HAS been contact), or cause me to yell at you, I've had the thought "WTF is he
doing?!?  Just because no one ever called you on it doesn't mean it never
happened.

I've already said that I understand how you feel.  Really, I do.  Sorry if you
don't believe me - I can't state it any more clearly.

Nope.

Whether you did it before or not, I would tend to believe Eldred.  I had a
perfect view of what you and Tim did. I was the first car to pass the 26
after you guys pushed him up.   You both dive bombed the first turn.  I
don't care what you call it, there was no reason that early in the race to
take three wide into that corner,  BOTH of you were wrong!

<SNIP>

How about you chill out and stop crying wolf, you did not help matters.  You
could simply have let Tim's tantrum play out and the rest of the drivers
calm him down.  But nooooo, you have to come in here saying oh, oh, look
what he said.  You were trying to get him banned over threats and that is
just as wrong.  Do you really think any other driver in RASCAR would have
allowed that?  He would have been booted for sure at the first sign of
agression.
<SNIP>

Geez, how thick are you??  I would say that is a snipe at you in reference
to your  *threat* to take his admin job away
Yes, As I am sure is obvious in the tone of my posts during this thread, I
am personnaly not happy with Tim or Dave.  Neither one of them is willing to
accept any blame over the incident, Both should go back and watch that
replay from other drivers perspective,  closely watch it and try to realize
what we are seeing.  Then come back in here and apologize for being ASSES.

My vote is for this conversation to die, no new rules and for drivers to
realize that gaining one or ten positions on lap 20 of an 80 lap race means
nothing.  Patience, Patience, Patience.

Actually, the 2-wide didn't bother me.  I had already planned to let Tim by,
and I left him enough room.  I obviously left TOO much room.  I just didn't
expect *3*-wide.  I guess I *should* have, given the personalities in the
group.

I agree Eldred, so it's basically your fault, it was T1 on a restart, of
course you're going to be 3 wide, what were you thinking ???
