Everything was going good up until the pit stops saturday, thought i was doing ok in 8th then as i leave the pits my tyre pressures where 42psi & the car was impossible to drive. Ended up in the wall god knows how many times & had quite a few long pit stops because of it. I remember adding some psi for the night time pit stop (think it was 2 or 3 clicks to the right) but how my psi went from 26 to 42 i don't know. I got the video clip of micko39 incident. gamerdvr.com/gamer/bigwill369/video/86958539Thanks for the video on my incident with Owain it looks deliberate when you see it back (hope it wasn't!). Ref pit-stops my advice is double check the parameters and save again before the race starts. From watching him in the in game replays and the footage seen here, I don't think it was deliberate. I think he simply lost control of his car and you were unfortunately in the line of fire. He seemed to race fair from what I could tell, just doesn't fully understand the etiquette when it comes to racing wheel to wheel. I honestly think that he really is just a rookie and is just very inexperienced. We've all been one, there's nothing wrong with that. However, he definitely didn't know what was going on at the start and took off thinking we were racing right away. I didn't notice during the race that he actually made contact with me on the formation lap. He started 3rd from the pits when he should have started last. If Neale and Stu would have been any further ahead during the formation lap I can bet he wouldn't have seen you enter the pits and kept going! It didn't help matters whatsoever that he didn't have a mic or wasn't in the party, so he had no communication with the group. I would disqualify him from the event but I would still give him a couple more chances to race with us as long as he's trying, and can hear and understand us. That's my 2 cents on the subject.

Good info Tyler, unfortunately I could not save my replay so only had the very brief time at the end of the race when I lapped him to see how he was driving. Let's see what his response to my message to him is. Like you say we've all been there as rookies so we want to be as fair as possible but the lack of comms is a bit of a problem.

It's a tough one and I didn't have any issue with him, at all.
From what Pafiero described, he was blocking at every chance he could get. Even racers with some experience don't understand the difference between blocking and defending.
At the same time, we have 3 people that have been racing with us for some time that had legitimate complaints.

I watched his entire replay of the first 42mins of the race that saved. He didn't do anything malicious that was intentionally done. Him and Pafirero actually had some decent battles and raced wheel to wheel quite well.
One thing though, Nürburgring is a tight circuit so I can foresee issues.
