so your definition of a clean pass is driving up the side of them?
ok, i know your type.

nothing else needs to be said.

well i see it is almost pointless to argue with you, as you only wish to believe your opinion, instead of the facts,
but, the fact is:
1) you were making the pass, so it is your responsibility to do it without making contact.
2) you DID turn left into him(after denying turning left at all), when in fact you have twice as much much room to give as he did.
3)you are failing to remember to crap crash physics in LFS, and the fact they amplify any minor contact to the point that a correction is almost always necessary. had you made a CLEAN pass, the initial contact made by you would not have caused him to be off line, ending up on your bumper.

that looks alot like turning left to me, and could be assumed that it was intentional. and he ws not trying to drive straight as you stated. if you look at his wheel position and that same instance you will see he too was turning left.

the simple truth is this is a league where contact is expected, executed, and in a small way accepted.
you said yourself you had no experience on this layout, so you do not know what you can and cannot get away with regarding corner speed and entry angles.
if you can't accept that you made the initial contact, then noone can help you.

Quote from tomhah :i dont turn left as you state. Im turning right, straight and then right again, and its called counter-steering, due to his hit in my rear end. I would have managed that corner perfectly, if he hadnt cut my end.

It wasnt a dangerous pass. The pass was made on the straight. I was the leading car into the corner. He was gonna turn in right behind me, but turned in too soon and hit my rear end.

10:13.54.

@ tommy; yes I did watch, several times. hence the timestamp references. maybe you should actually watch closely, and you will see you initiated the contact at 10:13.54 by turning left into StableX , upsetting his car causing him to correct, and at the same time putting you in a line that would not allow you to navigate the turn at the speed you were travelling. so when you slowed, his momentum and attempt to countersteer out of a slide you put him caused the contact. the undeniable proof is shown by you turning left into him. simply put, you have no situational awareness and failed to see you cut into him. it was an aggressive pass because you couldn't pull it off without making contact. @ Yann, I under stand your dilemma. maybe incidents like these need a bit more scrutiny.

i'm a bit confused.

why there is a report system for this league is beyond all sensible knowledge to begin with....but i would like to file an appeal.

StableX was docked 10 points for spinning me (i'm assuming lap 4 of race 1). this was purely a racing incident, as i had lifted off the throttle. if a person is going to get penalized for bumping someone(in a Bump and Jump League mind you), because of a variance in speed, then the penalties are going to start compounding beyond control. I don't see any benefit for penalizing one driver for an instance perpetrated by so many.
There is a huge problem with drivers in the league refusing to lift the throttle when someone spins in front of them. Take Lap 1 of Race1 for instance, where #12 clipped the wall, was inadvertentally bumped by #69, sending him into me, where i was on the outside. ok a racing incident. fair enough.

Fast forward a mere 3 seconds and you will see 4 cars involved in this incident, and only two sets of brake lights, mine and the #04. #60 showed no intent of braking and the #12 stayed full throttle, making contact as he went by.
where is the penalty for that? and that is just turn 1 of race 1......
how about race 2? #21 makes the same or worse contact with several cars in the first 2 laps alone, sending me into the barrier. and then denying any contact after i questioned him post-race...
the reported incident by #21 on #43 on Lap 4 of Race 2 was clearly his own fault, as he went wide off the racing line into the oncoming lane, leaving the inside wide open, then refusing to give way to #43 which clearly had full control of his track position.
the #60/ #43 incident was absolutely due to #60 making an aggressive pass, realizing he was not going to make the kink, then turning left into the #43, causing loss of control. timestamp 10:13.54, look at steering wheel positions relative to vehicle positions,. i see #60 realizing he's about to run out of talent and causing an avoidable incident.
If you're going to dock points and ban people from future events, you need to THOROUGHLY analyze each incident.
there's no need to turn this into a report-fest, but if you're going to impose a penalty for a specific manuever, it should be imposed on EVERYONE that is guilty of it. just quickly browsing through the replays there are innumerable accounts of cars getting pushed from behind, with or without intent, and no penalty.

This is NOT MoE, GTAL, iTCC, or any other big name league where there is zero tolerance for contact. Anyone that has experience in this type of racing knows for damn sure what the deal is. And if you don't get it, then it's not for you.

Is it (or can it be) possible when utilizing SpecAfterFinish in Qualifying mode to alter the amount of laps allowed before a driver gets spectated?
As of right now it is one outlap and one hotlap. I would like to be able to make it two hotlaps.
Also have you given any thought to my PM regarding Lap Record notification?
Thanks again for all your hard work.
