I suppose we could imagine any hypothetical. If hypotheticals are your bag, then the track aint a good place to be. Anything can happen and it sometimes does. Good drivers flip, good drivers hit walls, great drivers hit other cars, and awesome drivers die...In the case at hand the sweeper was Riverside, very wide and allows a lot of room for error. In the case at hand we weren't seeing full potential speed, therefore I dropped it to 3rd and passed inside. This is not a turn that is typically apexed, so I assumed the inside was about as safe as possible, and it was, and he lifted, and he went off track and he shoveled dirt from his cabin...Can't stand the heat, get outta the kitchen.

i never said you did.. your lame *** attitude about 'get out of the kitchen' while running 2:07s kind of tiped me off.

i simply said 'why push the issue'?.. if he destroyed your car or the guys behind you.. would that have been worth it?.. would it have made you feel more manly?

show some courtesy.. and you will get some in return from the people that matter.. the guys who are there every event..

the guy obviously wasnt comfortable.. you got inside him.. he freaked or drifted out to the marbles to give you some room and lost it.. he could have rolled, died, totalled another car, totalled your car, etc.. is that worth it?

i would be more than happy to put you in the same situation to see how you handle it if yould like... maybe you'll see a different perspective then.

You have issues...really. You are being absolutely irrational.

Thanks Ryan,

You said it better than I did. I run with a lot of groups in the fastest group, Trackmasters, NCRC, etc...and trust is paramount. It's ALWAYS better to play it safe unless you are very very sure of what the other car is going to do. It's not racing, we are not trying to steal apexes, etc....if you are bored, step up to the next level. this is why 07 is my last year of time trial...I'm tired of going around in circles looking for lap time.

dude.. can you not read... im being perfectly rational, and mature, and experienced.

trust me, ive been doing this longer than you.. ive seen stupid **** destroy cars and lives.. it is not worth it..

be courteous.. maybe the dude didnt see you.. maybe he wasnt experienced enough.. maybe his mirror broke off.. maybe his left eyeball fell out.. who the hell knows.. but again.. did it make you feel better to push the issue?.. no one got hurt and nothing got busted up.. so now youre here talking all of your macho 'if you cant stand the heat' crap.. if the dude died or destroyed his car.. or someone elses car.. believe me.. you wouldnt have so much bravado.

i'll make sure everyone who runs advanced with sv know that your whole attitude is 'if you cant stand that heat, stay out of the kitchen'.. (sorry i keep quoting that people, but it just cracks me up)

thank you.. see?.. percy has been running time trials for a while and sees what its about.. and when he starts racing he will be one step ahead of you.. there are no giant trophies.. and trusting the guys you run with is EVERYTHING... i started racing with arc/ncrc... again.. cause i knew and trusted everyone out there.. i been door to door with some of them at 110mph+ in 8 at willow and laughing the whole time.. but ive also been 100 ft away from morons and worried as ****.

everyone needs to remember.. at any time.. any person can drive his car right into your door.. and there is NOTHING you can do about it... what are you going to do? cry to your insurance?.. sue?.. beg him to pay for your car?.. nothing.

show that youre a good driver and others will notice.. show that youre a tool and people will never forget.

oh.. ps.. a little tip for ya.. if youre running time trails.. that LAST thing you want to do is be near/around/passing other cars..

its all about clearing space for clean laps.. but apparently most people like to 'prove' how fast they are by making videos of themselves passing other cars on track instead of letting their times talk.. 2:07?

No, you came in here in a hysterical panty-up-*** mood, making an absolute *** out of yourself. Being a little punk who has no idea what he is talking about...I have outlined precisely what happened, and you offered a hypothetical fiction, ascribing it to me, absolutely clueless as to the facts. I assure you, I am well aware of track etiquette and how to behave and not to behave...Quite often, as in the case I outlined, people are ****** and don't let you pass. In this case there was a safe opportunity to pass and I took it. The M3 guy lifted in the turn and ended up in the dirt. He panicked. The red run group rules apply and he was driving like it was a blue run group. He even admitted as much by implying that he didn't point me bye -- this illustrates quite obviously that he was not in complete understanding of what the red group was about. Had I any idea that he had the expectation that we were running blue, white or yellow group rules, I would have waited, and waited, and waited until he pointed me bye.

I still look forward to you harassing me on a track someday...I am looking for a reason to throw a few thousand at my Evo.
