So did the FX NSX run the last day? What about the red EVO in Super MOD from Touge Factory?

they both ran.. but neither finished their sessions. when i go tthere on sunday they were actually pitted next to each other and both severely torn apart and working feverishly on.

You would have to ask them what happened as I only have bits and pieces of info.

I love the new rule RL just came out with.... I wonder why... lol

1-15.10 Change: Any vehicle or driver who as determined by RTA Officials to have intentionally impeded or obstructed any Competitor during a Time Attack session will lose all times recorded in all sessions run in that Time Attack event. This includes, but is not limited to, purposely spreading debris on the racing surface or placing ones vehicle in such a manor as to limit the other Competitor’s ability to run a clean lap.

euuhmmmm... too bad it wasnt in place before this sunday

So basically everybody saw it, it took 1 1/2 hours to clean up the douchebaggery, they let nils rerun due to the before said shenanigans and then the transmission wouldnt go to 4th which is where 70 percent of the track is used.
Nils got the short end of the stick because someone was playing dirty.
Redline should have black flagged the Subaru in question after there where dust clouds at every corner on the warm up lap.
They just imposed a rule after the fact that if this is done again you will be DQ'd from the whole event.
Its uber BS, they were expecting the super mod guys to go out and play in it.... in which case Rado spun at 130+ and Matt Andrews deemed the surface unsafe.
FXMD then went out with there crew and started sweeping the corners... needless to say there where issues.
Moral of the story dont be a douche and ruin an event for hundreds of people (including the many if not hundreds of spectators that where waiting to see the Super session that got canceled) and take a loss like a man.
so thaaaaatss what happened...i was wondering what was taking so damn long

What a douchebag! If I was running RTA, I'd ban the suby driver for life to make it very clear that any shenanigans that potentially endanger other drivers will simply not be tolerated. Not to mention the unsportsmanlike conduct issue... If I had been in Nils' shoes, I'd have been livid.

i've never even raced ona road course before, but i can tell that was intentional.... coming out of the last corner on his second lap he exits the corner then turns left to drop the wheels off into the dirt.....


not to mention that several turns his right side was a full tire off the track.

i think him slowing down for no reason when he has one lap left and holding up nils was far worse IMO
