    Great race on Sunday night fellas, really enjoyed it. don't know what happened at the start but i qualified 5th and started 12th so had some work to do from the get go, by the second or third lap i was up into 7th position behind stig13 which proved to be a challenge to pass as he was holding a good pace but by about lap 5 i was past stig13 and chasing down snake who was having a good battle with firewind. Then at the end of lap 5 a noticed enforcer pull into the pits and thought wow he's been punishing his tyres, then within a couple of turns he had left the room, at this point the gap to snake was closing and i thought i was going to be on his bumper within a few laps but then coming out of the corkscrew i saw firewind negotiating the gravel trap at Rainey curve ( not helped by the constant rage comments coming from enforcer) this made closing the gap to snake a much more difficult task but i managed to pull the gap down by about a second before we both pitted on lap 13.
    The second stint of the race was all about closing the gap to snake which i was doing only to undo than do again a couple of times (geez that vette can bite) then the last lap was upon me with still about 1.5 seconds to snake , got to the final turn, had a great exit and snake was right in front of me in a cloud of smoke laying a couple of black lines up the middle of the track, then as i pulled up beside him........ ahhhh black screen... you have been disconnected from the server grrr F##K, S##T AHHHH:mad::(, bastard and all was lost.
    all in all i had a great race starting rear of field and battling my way to 4th which i was really happy with, cant wait till Sunday.:)

    @enforcer, there were pause menu problems in div2 and disconnects across all 3 divisions so DON"T come back into the room and criticize my room setup for a problem that was obviously out of my control, I didn't see you put your hand up to be the division host so pull ya head in mate. I'm sure this wasn't the first problem you have been affected by while playing GT5 online so maybe you should focus your criticism towards PD who do have the ability to fix these problems and not the bloke that's just trying to help out with the league.

    You sure that was me mate? I don't remember you ever pulling up beside me tbh, I had a few rough patches early in the second stint which allowed you to gain on me a bit and you did get within 1.5-2 seconds or so at one point but I put my head down and was pretty well consistently quicker than you until right towards the end, albeit only a tenth or two per lap, I felt as though I actually pulled away a couple of seconds again after your initial second stint gains... On the last lap I realised I had 4 or 5 seconds up my sleeve so I did take it fairly easy, just wanted to bring it home, in the end I noticed it was stig13 that came home about 20 seconds behind me I think it was, that was when I realised you had disconnected, I dunno, maybe I just missed it, I did have a fair sloppy last lap but I don't remember seeing your car right up my arse on the map that's all, I guess it's lucky for me that you did disconnect then, haha!

    I think it was probably the connection drop out that gave the illusion that you were there, you were probably already at the finish but when I exited the final turn you were there, tbh I though it was strange to have closed the gap by that much in the last sector but stranger thing have happened. I made a couple of mistakes around the lap 24-25 mark that put me out of reach but before that I got within a few car lengths briefly.

    Yeah the network was a bit all over the place eh, I guess I should be thankful my race went fairly smoothly connection wise, I could see plenty of wierd :):):):) happening but I didn't have any issues personally, besides that stuttering of course, that was a bit of a pain.

    Hey Guys, thought I'd let you know I'm not going to bother showing up for a few races this season if I haven't had a chance to practice properly.
    I was disgraceful at Laguna, lapped twice & 4secs off the pace even though I pitted twice!

    I'm only getting in the way of your battles when you lap me, which isn't helping anyone.

    Pretty sure I won't make Monza, got a wedding on out of town. Maybe next round.

    That is total bull:):):):) firewind and you know it !!!!, you pushed me off the track and into the gravel trap !! YOU HAVE TO HOLD YOUR LINE UNTILL YOU HAVE MADE THE PASS not just push the other driver off the road !! if anyone needs a penalty it's you !!!!. I just watched the replay and you were in the wrong BIG TIME !!. Maybe you should watch the replay. Oh that's right you can't because you RAGE QUIT like you complained about last week ! so pissed off !

    Take it to the Race Stewards boys. I just watched the incident from every angle, and from both perspectives. I can give you my opinion if you want me to. One of you was in the wrong, but in the end its just a race incident.

    I just watched the incident again from many cam angles and firewind clearly bumped me onto the grass at the end of the ripple strip. I was a passenger from that point on.

    correct from what i saw there was no little or no room given by firewind which caused cybers car to make contact with firewind resulting in a crash... firewind should of stayed right to allow cyber to reenter the track

    I think it should be just left alone boys. Firewind, in future, please stay in the race and try to salvage a position instead of rage quitting. It doesn't set a good example, and doesn't help your position in these kinds of disputes.
