I guess this says it all. You blatantly allowed your car to spin his because you let your emotions get the best of you. Just as bad as revenge wrecking although I'm not sure he wrecked you in the first place.
I beg of you, please do not do this to me if I am in a position to lap you ever. You obviously have no intention of listening to others trying to correct a horrible driving error but please please do not brake on the racing line in front of me.
Braking on the racing line while not in a braking zone is a horrible idea, especially when there is a car behind you concentrating on getting around you. They are going to assume that you are going to remain as predictable as possible (that is, braking in braking zones, staying on throttle when on the racing line) so that they can worry about making a clean pass.
If you had tried that right in front of someone less experienced you may have ended up rear ended and YOU could have been heading towards the red 'n white barriers.
The "dab of left foot brake" was what started the whole turn of events, DMT just was a bit foolish to go back outside so quick. I would expect deko to hand both warnings at the very least.
Edit: Later in the race I was being lapped by two cars one lap ahead of me, fighting for somewhere between 8th-10th or something. I got completely off the racing line (I went to the left of the straight) while still pretty far from the braking zone, I think just after the bridge. I then lifted to let both cars past. No incidents happened because I moved left far enough ahead of them that they could see where I was going well before they drafted up to me. I would suggest doing this if you really feel the need to slow yourself to let lapping traffic past.
Andy King, I would say you are SOL. It might be "yours" in the sense that you created it but once its out there pretty much anyone can use it. It's pretty much the same deal with skins. There is nothing you can do to keep people from "stealing" either.
I would also like to say that some people should get a bit more practice in before trying to race. oldnavy and fabiansaad. Most of the people seems pretty well prepared though, not quite as "amateur" as I expected. Only one SC? good going guys.
This is true, the start was a total failure. One of my teammates on Ventrilo said "They have to waive this start off... oh I guess not..."
I was doing the same speed as RSR but had to slow because I had CD in front of me (who I should have been beside of, but if I had done that I'd have been rear ended by RSR) slowing a bit since they finally caught the grid.
Here is the appropriate rule:
The entire back of the field was desperately trying to get caught up in formation but didn't have any time to. Blackwoods front straight is pretty short and there's not really much that could have been done here. RSR didn't plan to get the advantage they got but they definitely were not close enough to those in front to get caught up like everyone else did.
