Car 39 (Canadian Honda Civic) got totally hosed by the Judges!!! (Page 2 of 2)

OMG, yes on the poorly aimed HLs. On friday night, it was horrible.

Of course! Look at what pros they are -- all the more reason for us to unfairly, totally hose them!

Also, I notice that none do any volunteer fire fighter work.

Thanks for posting our stories Johnny. No doubt our entire team was pissing steam for 7 hours while we twiddled our thumbs. We would have gladly changed every hondas head gasket during that time rather than park til dawn.

I'm not surprised with the posts in this thread. I went a bit maniacal in my last stint during the last 3 hours of the race and for sure pissed off more than a few people while driving through the traffic jams. But at that point it didn't matter because apparently the first 13 hours incident free didn't matter either.

Thanks for the defense bongle but I don't think any of the yanks on this forum know what solo 1 and solosprints is in Canada. It's equivalent to TT.

Not the car in question but I wonder if these guys used the "Got Punted" excuse?

Yeah!  That's the spirit!  I think I got hosed, so I'll take it out on the 70 other teams on the track who didn't have anything to do with my supposed hosing.  Cry me a fucking river.

On the Camaro video, can anyone explain why teams do that?  It's a friggin endurance race.  Chances are that the car you're blocking isn't within 30 spots of you in the standings and all you're doing is pissing off other drivers and increasing your likelihood of getting the curse.  My only contact in the entire race (impressive considering how much of a bashfest CMP was in the last hour and a half) came from an Integra that held me back for 4 laps.  I finally had an opening going into the final left hander and he came over hard into the right front of my car.  While sitting out my penalty for speeding in the pits, he came over to find out who the guy was that hit him.  He was just minding his business, driving clean and out of nowhere BAM!  puhleeese.  Give up the line and learn something from the faster car.

They didn't get 20 black flags.  They got zero in the first 13 hours.  When Jonny said "missed 20 black flags", he meant the car passed the black flag station 20 times without coming in while they were trying to call the car in for a single incident. Which is still severe, but not as severe as causing 20 separate incidents and ignoring all the flags for those.  I'm pretty sure they'd red flag the race and physically remove you from the car if you caused 20 incidents and didn't stop.
