    @supernicebob – Don’t worry about it mate ;)

    I was annoyed at the game (for the ghosting thing), and also partially myself (for being too lazy to steer left to avoid), not with you ;)

    @commonmonsoon Oops..

    What I see in that video is Bradley unlapping himself, but at the end of the day it’s very likely with your penalties you’d have finished behind me anyway.

    @alfie What do you mean ‘unlapping himself’, he bounced of the barrier into be after trying taking it flat out

    In reference to my “handbags” comment in the chat room earlier, may I remind you all of this:

    Forum Behaviour – The philosophy hasn’t changed since last season: if you have a grievance about something that happens on track involving another competitor, do NOT make angry, accusatory, childish comments in this thread. We do not accept or put up with that sort of thing in this series. That is your one and only warning. If you have an issue with someone else, first of all remember that this is a video game and if you’re really that upset by it, you should maybe reconsider your life priorities. Secondly, if you wish, contact the person with whom you have a grievance in private, either through F1F PM, PSN or another private channel.

    It is only a game folks. Some people’s jets need cooling I think.

    @spud – What chat room?

    @david-a The PSN chat room.

    @olliekart I’m not aiming anything at anyone. It was meant for everyone.

    Second one, he turns in on me casuing me to slide into the braking zone locking up

    Anyway, im handing in my resignation here, thanks for the good times, but i can spend my time more worthwhile Karting.

    Qualiifying: 7th?

    Race: 4th

    After a good amount of preparation, and looking at what the pole time was – I was pretty confident, actually. But I really wasn’t getting on with the chicane – and @alfie It’d be great if you could avoid giving a commentaryin the middle of a session as it’s really distracting! This is no excuse for my result, though – just something to remember!

    The race was interesting and the second half really boring. The start had @JamieFranklinF1 slow down really quickly in front of me and there wasn’t a lot I could do. I managed to get past, and then I think a number of incidents were triggered. Apologies to @David-A who was also pretty laggy up the climb – and I couldn’t help but clip the back into Massanet ever so slightly. It was enough to jeopardise your race, so really sorry about that, mate!

    I was in the top 3 and then fluffed it at the chicane. I had to let everyone past and do a 360 spin. My hopes of being near the front were dwindling, and it wasn’t until my second and third stints where I settled down and got some clean air. I was easily on the pace of the leaders, and consistent too – but that’s not very useful 30 seconds or so down!

    My loneliest Collantine Cup race ever, I think! Great win by @commonmonsoon and generally great, clean drives from the top 3.

    I agree with @Alfie regarding the first incident. It does look like @Bradley13 is simply taking the corner on the outside, trying to unlap himself.
    As for the second incident…Not too sure what happened there. Actually looks kind of like your brakes locked up, seeing as you just carried on going straight, but who am I to judge.

    (Wouldn’t let me edit, so had to delete and re-post :P)

    @olliekart regarding the first video – there also is clearly some unusual lag if you ask me. There are no proximity arrows to warn you that he’s behind you – and then all of a sudden there is. That occurs precisely after someone else gets disconnected. At the same time, yeah, it was pretty clumsy from @bradley13 but that’s a pretty childish response don’t you think?

    The second video I would have approached that whole situation a lot slower to try and avoid that from happening. A little clumsy again from bradley, yeah, but what should we do, kick him out or something?

    The whole reason for me forming the Collantine Cup and for making it an invitation-only series was so that we could race without people taking things too seriously and have some fun with a mature bunch of people. Yes, the idea is to race to win but also to do it in good faith without any of the immature finger pointing I see in so many other online series.

    As the executive director of CCRAP, I think that in the interests of the series and its current members, it would be best to say that Olliekart will no longer be allowed to compete in the Collantine Cup.
