I can't believe I am being blamed for the contact on lap 1 utter madness

No one is blaming you for that accident, Mr. Tea just asked as to have a look at this after yesterday's race.

I watched the replay, he clearly stated that "I ruined his race"

I've watched the replay and seriously cannot blame anyone for this: evilpimp may have moved a bit more to the outside (or you to the inside), but no one expected this small contact, which do happen while racing close, to turn into a huge lag collision. So in my conclusion lag and LFS's collision detection are mainly responsible for this incident.

When did I blame you??? I'm pretty sure I said the collision between me and you ruined my race. Not that you personally made a huge mistake and sent me flying... I know pretty well that it was because of the lag. In no way do I think it could have been your fault.
If I did say that it was probably before I saw replay. I probably thought I was on outside and you didn't see me and hit me hard. After watching replay I saw that it was very very light contact gone horribly wrong because of lag.

The race report states that there was no driver error... And I think that's right.
