I use that chat command for several things... usually to show gratetude
(sp?) though.
When ever I race someone hard or very close I like to express my thanks to
them for giving me "room to play in".
I'll also use it for people that do "let" me by too.... aswell as any other
incident were I should be thankful for not getting hit by another car....
Take Michigan for instance... I remember once I a car 'inside' me thru turn
1 and 2... Sort if midway thru the turns I could hear the car inside
lifting off the throttle, just to make sure I would have enough room so I
could take a narrower line and (if needed) avoid hitting the outside wall.
Imho, if we're to be able to race side by side like it's meant to, we have
to follow 'gentlemens-rules' like this in order to avoid wrecks... I just
want to do my part by letting people know I do appreciate their gestures,
just like I hope you guys appreciate it whenever I do the same.
