I would've raced more but I had to work late and then the boss wanted us at his house and talked for 3 hours, so I barely made the HTL race. I'm just sour I can't practice as much as him.
Well we all get beat by him most of the time but to beat us all in one night at 4 very different tracks in 4 different chassis is pretty impreessive ,especially if you take into account he didnt run any of us over to do it. You coming from 10th to 1rst in like 3 laps would have been awesome if you didnt run half the field over to do it. JMO.Winning means alot to everybody I'm sure but winning clean with the respect of the entire field means more.
Man, I consider you a friend Ray. But check this out. I didn't run over half the field so I would like to know who half the field is. Just because SHOCK of all people came from 10th to 1st in 3 laps, doesn't mean I ran over half the field. It sure would sound like it from someone who reads it or was distantly in the back of the pack and didn't really see what was going on, but the facts are different.
First you gotta consider the chassis and the fact that I APPEARED to be the only driver on soft tires in the A Main. What does that mean? Well, it means I was about four tenths of a second faster than everyone to start the race until my tires eventually started to wear.
Which means yes, I could charge up through the field pretty easily and not have to hit anyone to do it. The only person I THINK I hit on the way to the front was JFR_Jim since when I went under him I drifted up and he drifted up too which makes me think i hit him on his screen, but there was a bubble on mine. However it was pretty easy to tell that he wouldn't have drifted up like that on his own. So I'm sorry for that.
If I hit anyone else I'd like to know who. I actually got drilled into the wall by BW whether accidentally or not, but I didn't say anything to him about it because I regrouped and kept going. And when I got to Wheel, I never touched him at all to pass and immediately started to pull away.
NOW, you say he didn't run any of us over to do it?! LOL. That's the reason I was mad in the first place. You must not have watched the replay to see that when he eventually caught me with two laps to go he bumped me in turn three and shot me up the track into the wall costing me a few spots, and of course he went on to win. So how can you say I ran over the field and Wheel never hit anyone all night when he specifically DID wall me to make the race winning pass?!
Yeah, winning clean means more, but you haven't raced online much the last couple years to see how Wheel wins in the races where he's not always the fastest car or dominating from the green flag. It's easy to win clean when you have a five second lead at the end of the race. But often when he's in a battle for the lead at the very end of the race he will do anything to win, especially with me. Just because he acts like an angel on here doesn't mean a whole lot since I have hundreds of messages from him after races when he was pissed off that would turn anyone's opinion of him if they saw him. Things like him hoping I die in my sleep to lots of "F*CK YOU's", and most commonly, declaring that everyone in dtr2 except for him is scrubs and the only reason ______ won is because of _____ (insert excuse). So maybe before you assume I plowed through the front and Wheel just won with roses and butterflies all night, you will watch the replay and see what really happen, especially when you compare how I PASSED HIM, and how HE PASSED ME to win. Thanks.
