Moderator's Report

Server replay time: 0

Blanchimont first lap. Jose steers into Reign Man and causes both to spin and there is mayhem behind them.
Unnecessary contact which could have been avoided and it cost many people the race.
The people at the back of the grid should have approached the incident more cautiously and should have lifted off atleast and not head towards it full throttle.

The weird thing is, no victims reported this, so the driver gets away with it.


Server replay time: 1754s

Syd goes wide at the exit of Poehon and rejoins right in front of Legzy. Instead of staying on the right side of the track, Syd suddenly goes to the left crossing in front of Legzy.
This gave Legzy the opportunity to overtake on the inside, which probably prevented him from losing time at this incident.

Syd should check his mirrors before rejoining, and not realizing approaching cars after the rejoin. However, there didn't seem to be a big time loss for Legzy here as he was able to overtake immediately.
Hence just the warning and no penalty.


Server replay time: 1941s

Syd goes wide at Blanchimont and drives on the slippery run off areas, which is even more slippery due to the rain. He loses control there and shoots across the track, well in front of Legzy. He hits the barrier and rejoins, but stays quite far to the left, leaving more than half the track for Legzy. Legzy probably expected Syd to came back more to the right and takes a bit of grass, losing a bit of control in the process and there is slight contact.

It was a messy situation, but mostly due to the circumstances. Again, better rejoin is required and give way to incoming traffic, but this was not severe enough for me to hand out a penalty.


Server replay time: 2444s

Syd goes off and rejoins the track, this time slowly and with care. He stays to the left and leaves the whole track open for Legzy who is approaching.
It's normally better to only rejoin the track when there is no traffic coming, but this rejoin didn't seem to be a threat to anybody.
It's also the responsibility of the other drivers to approach an incident or off with care, better safe than sorrow.

Blunder's car was upside down at Eau Rouge for several laps and eventually I decided to try and bash it upright again but then he escaped back to the pits - why didn't you just do that in the first place if you didn't want to continue?! Roll Eyes

Simple equation, too fast, cold tyres, straight on into wall on turn 1, Lap 1! What an idiot! Lukily didn't collect anyone!
Car was upside down but was hoping to be flipped back the right way up so I could limp to the pits. Unfortunately the car kept slowly moving down the hill so I never got that option. Was off the track so didn't think I would interfere with anyone else so crossed my fingers.
When you bumped me Dave I just escaped to get out of your way!

What an idiot I am  !  Embarrassed

Unfortunately I was caught in the chaos at blanchimont and it was looking to be a good race in the damp conditions, especially as I was up 4 places on the 1st lap. Appreciate the apology Jose.

I knew something was up when approaching Blanchimont as my frame rate suddenly dropped from 80 to 15 and, with spanner looking to slipstream me, I slammed into a stationary Carl on the blind exit. Wow, I just took off!! 

Just had a look at the replay and the award of the jammiest bugger of the race must go to Simon; god knows how he negotiated the chaos and debris at Blanchimont. Ever thought of a career as a stunt driver? 

Also, amusing moment at Blanchimont 2-ish mins after the crash; a lonely wheel rolls across the track Smiley

The only way to do it is with GTR2 Manager and we've had much more stability since we stopped using that...

My best ever drive to date resulting in my 1st ever podium finish. Qualified 3rd in class & finished 3rd in class behind Evert & Purdie (Congrats guys)  Cool.


However, what should have been a fantastic experience for me was repeatedly spoiled by one driver. I can't tell you how disappointed/furious I was with the repeated driving/actions of a the said GT1 driver  censored.
Since I've not had a sniff of an apology for any of your actions, I can only assume you are completely unaware, so to help us all... Incident reports submitted.

Unlucky Mark J on not getting in.......  testing beforehand there were not many GT2s but in the real thing it did pad out a litte but GT1 was more prominent... don't want to rub it in but you would loved that race  Cheesy  Wink

Wise move mate. Talking in 'generalities' the gap between slower GT1 drivers and faster GT2 drivers does close in worse conditions, 600bhp on slicks in the damp isn't easy but does filter out the smoother & patient drivers..... I won't mention my small 'offs' with 480bhp tho  Roll Eyes lol

Grats on a solid 3rd, on my s/g on the penultimate lap I was anxiously waiting for your car to fly pass!  Smiley

Thanks  Smiley. I knew you were in the pits from teammates on TS, with about 2 or 3 laps to go & you were about 55 secs ahead going in... but despite me pushing as hard as I could you were still about 11 secs ahead coming out. So I you were still very safe Sad. Then on what turned out to be my last lap, I could see FreQ in 1st in the distance behind me at the bus stop, so just held back at the last hairpin turn, so as not to risk stuffing up on an extra lap.

Yeah, I know what it's like & one of the reasons I chose GT2 this time. I spent the whole of last season being 'the slowest GT1 driver' every week. The 1st two/three laps I was always very nervous/conscious of holding up/spoiling the GT2 leaders race. Eventually I'd always either eek out a safe enough gap or have an off, then be patient picking my way back through the field of better drivers, that were racing in a different championship. The thing is, I was shocked to be running so well in the GT2 class  Grin

Congrats to everyone who finished the race......that was a tough one Shocked

First off, I must apologise if I got in anyones way during the race, my frame rate completely plummeted when there was that big accident on lap one. I decided to pull over to the side of the track and wait for it to right itself, not sure if this was the correct thing to do?

Managed to get myself up into 6th place with only 6 laps to go when I drifted slightly off line going through Eau Rouge and had a massive off :'(
That Corvette is knightmare to control even when the track is only damp!!
I did have a great battle with TrueTom though, where we traded place for place for couple of laps ...much enjoyment had!! Grin
Looking forward to the next installment......

Yep, well done on the lapping GT2 drivers. I had a few GT2s to pass after my off on the pace lap Roll Eyes

I did slow down one GT2 driver when I hesitated entering the bus stop after the GT2 driver flashed to let me pass. Sorry, I cant remember which driver it was but, sorry mate.

That 1st lap crash was a bit like this:

What about the original 'Death Race 2000' movie, also featuring Sly Stalone. Grin (not seen modern the remake yet).

I suppose because its a comedy, it can still be good today. Mind you there are not that many movies about racing even though their are many about cars in general.

Lets hope for dryness at Imola during the next UE Smiley
