Roger that
@stucar17, and a thousand apologies
@Randm90 for knee jerk response to a
race/DC'd/etc on my part...
Due to being DC'd I've been unable to view a replay to see what really happened. I'm having a
ty season thus far with average results recorded, when I've not been DC'd, largely due to my poor quali form (I can't seem to get RH tyres going till lap 5-6), and perhaps like Stu, I tend to be over generous with giving fellas racing room when it's on, at times to my own detriment.
Bearing that in mind, I expect others to race with some sense of good sportsmanship and fair play as well (call me old fashioned). So when I get shafted by some idiot who's forgotten to brake a little earlier because of a tow, or I've been divebombed by a bold and audacious move that really wasn't on, yeah, I can get a little shirty...
This is only my second season racing with ROOZ (I had to abandon HTO Series due to injury /ill health), and maybe I'm dreaming, but it feels a little more 'elbows out' than last season.
I'm happy to take my HTFU pills and own my bit of track with a bit more 'presence', and I accept that there will inevitably be 'racing incidents' occur when blokes are pushing the envelope, it's only logical, but I can't and won't accept being on the receiving end of poor concentration, skills, and execution thereof on a repeat basis.
I come here to have fun primarily, race clean, hard and fair, make some new friends, and hopefully learn how to become a better driver...but be damned if I'm gonna show up week in/week out to have my chances of a good run dashed by what seems to be a combination of over enthusiasm and inexperience, or
ty network issues that make completing an event impossible (I had a public Nordeschleife room open for 3 days on the trot during Ballascleiffen Festival of Speed earlier this month and it was rock solid...for 3 continuous days...so go figure!)
Anyways, enough about me...see you all next Sunday, but please keep your elbows tucked in, as a reality check will often offend. Cheers
