Anyone up for a 50- or 100-lapper tonight at Michigan?

Good racing last night, boys!

I admit it...

Last night was proof of my inner demons.

After a few times when neckthai or someone else managed to wreck me (or when I took a black flag after being rear-ended!) I got a little frustrated and may have been out for a little 'revenge', even though no one had intentionally bumped me. That cost me good racing and ultimately I was the one to end up in the wall.

I woke up this morning, looked myself in the mirror and said:

"You're good enough, smart enough, and gosh darn it, people like you"

Now I'm doing much better.

Thanks to PK again for hosting.

Since JackB1 and I discovered that we live in the same area, and work about 2 miles from one-another, we're going to meet for lunch today...

Unless anyone knows that he's a serial killer?

See you at 12:30 Jack.

I'll keep my eye on CNN Breaking News starting at 1:30.

Seriously, have fun, fellas.

Sport, I have some of the same problems. Most of mine stem from bogus black flags. I then turn into Paul Tracy as the red mist takes over. My worst offense had to be t-boning PK trying to make up a lap by passing people as they slowed for the pits. Yikes, not a good idea. I also tend to be slightly optimistic when it comes to passing.

Bloody good time last night, again.

So, let me be the first to ask (without know if I can even make it) we racing again tonight?

nah....maybe just a serial "wrecker". I have to appologize again to anyone who's race I may have ruined last night. I really need to stay away from those smaller, tricker tracks for now and stick with the wider, superspeedways. Some nights I cant get rid of the "wall magnet".

Good racing last night guys.

I got frustrated with the screwy rules in the game, and couldn't take anymore of that BS. I love rules, I can't race without them, but when they aren't applied properly it really gets my goat. Twice last night I was black flagged because the car less than 1sec. in front of me crashed and caused the very yellow I was black flagged under. I was just too pissed off at the game, not the players, to continue, so i went and got in a game of football. That's the last time I use the Jets. Oy. 3-9 passing!

Zep.

There's a simple solution to your problem.

1. Drink Heavily.
2. Host the game.
3. Restart whenever things don't go your way.

Works for PK!

...just kidding PK.

HAHAHAHA......

Guys, another great time last night.

Although I caused 1 or 2 scraps.....I do find that if I hang back a little, especially around the turns I can usually find my spot to pass.....as long as you are in the draft you can ease off the gas just a bit and then gas it coming out of the turn

I saved a few crashes lately using that method.....although Neck might disagree after I cut him last night.

But that was PK's fault, he hit me first

>>>But that was PK's fault, he hit me first<<<

You F*CKED me, man!

And yes, I will continue to use the one-lap rule when I host. If we get a wreck on the first lap, we're restarting if the race is a 20-lapper. That might not be "pure," but it's a hell of a lot more fun than trundling around for the first five laps of a race.

Out,
PK

Well, we had lunch and it turns out Jack is not a serial killer, he's a good guy.

However, I did think it was odd that he kept insisting he had candy and videogames in his van...

JUST KIDDING...

In fact, it was proof positive that DSP is full of good people.

Cory's a good guy too. He even picked up the tab!
Thanks pal....I'll get the next one. Was fun meeting
one of "our own". I do have one complaint.....he refused
to give me those killer Indy setups he promised me

I might be on later tonite to cause more havoc on the ovals.
