Re: WAS THERE A PEOPLES CURSE AT SC

OK, what I see is them attempting a pass on the outside twice, and getting cut off by someone who is not watching thier mirrors.  I, personally, have a very high tolerence for that kind of track antic because a) either they have the skill to do it or b) I'm going to watch them rack up a bunch of black flags. 

It's like the CRX in beginning of my vid ( http://vimeo.com/9434306 ).  He's being very agressive and cuts under me in going into 1 but I keep on him and he goes off in 4 when he out brakes himself and hits the wet track.  And I try almost the exact same move as the Miata at 1:15ish.

Wow, I am shocked they didn't ball it up with those moves.

notice how the lightest AND heaviest cars are going in the wrong direction while a portly buick and a number of other cars are fine smile

(and no, afaik they didn't get tangled into each other. I did laugh my ass off when they tried to head for the go-kart track unintentionally though)

I've offered to bring a "revenge" car.  You know one where you can pay $200, take it out for a few laps, and punt your least favorite car off the track.  You'd incur a black flag but it wouldn't be counted against your teams car...
