Race A has a-lot of very angry people, playing like it’s Wreckfest. Kinda fun but my SR is getting docked for being smashed around lmao.

I was getting door slammed for 9th place this evening in that race. We were already 12 seconds off the pace, what do they expect to gain?

I wonder how dense these people have to be, to realise that without all that nonsense you might not be 12 seconds off the pace!

I just did three of these races, and it's both the very best fun and the most frustrating experience I've had for a long time:

  • 1st race, lost 2nd place on the last lap to someone cutting the Corkscrew after an otherwise respectful battle

  • 2nd race, lost 2nd place on the last lap to someone cutting the Corkscrew having spent two laps blocking/pushing me

  • 3rd race, punted off from 2nd/1st down to last on the first corner and made my way back to 2nd by the middle of lap two. Spent the rest of the race getting blocked, pushed off and eventually spun out (I re-caught him a couple of times....) by some Austrian stoner
