MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
That was Schumacher-esque!
arguably he shouldnt have sat on his 3/4 for that long, but it looked like the driver in the orange hairdryer did clock him in the wing mirror and pitched him out on purpose. It also looked like he got the white one to fishtail too.
That was pretty shitty move.
😯
that's how i used to play gran turismo 😳
fair play to the guy though, he drives for real pretty much how I drive every console racing game. And ends up about the same way too 🙂
(crash is in the last minute, but it's amusing watching his driving)
never ever try and take molgrips place in the queue 😉
Ha I always did that on any race game.
I also used to full speed it towards corners and just smash into the pack to turn.
I hate that bit of the M6
The guy got points on his race licence and a fine.

FTFY 🙄
What a dick. Could he be taken to small claims court for that? ****er is endangering life and wilfully damaging someone elses property. I know its racing but he quite clearly looks, sees the guy and then punts him off the track. Tit, and a dangerous one at that. Surely the marshals/ race organisers won't look too kindly on that kind of behaviour, it is causing crashes on purpose, and there is no need for that. Next time it could be a childs face!
People think playing a computer game is remotely related to real driving 😆
My 10 year old can beat me at any driving game.
DezB you have Forza now, it doesn't get any more real! 😛
Saw this yesterday. Quite shocked that they guy's license wasn't suspended for this, I have seen it done for a lot lot less.
Not helped by Croft being a relatively dangerous circuit. Its also a fairly rough championship, which is true of a lot of one-make or closely road-derived series (god knows why).
Did he not see it coming after watching him knock the other guy off first?
I am not sure he touched the other chap, he got squiffy, over compensated and lost it all on his own.

Thread on PH states that the guy at the head of the queue who went off first had a puncture...which is why he was a bit all over the place.
Moe, this from the white car driver's co-driver on the PH thread:
To be fair, Jake (my co-driver in the white car) had a O/S/R puncture which was why the car was all over the place. This was caused by contact with the red car at Sunny Out before the video starts.
EDIT: doosuk beat me.

A-ha, makes sense.
All in all it all looks like a lot of fun, I am going to have to try and blag a go in one I think!
