elongoran Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 We didn't want to come over during the race but we did want to communicate with you guys about the race. 1st stint you guys spun in turn 5, right in front of us and almost took us out. 2nd stint you guys lost it in turn 6 and hit us so hard that my driver hurt his back and we broke 3 studs and bent the rear control arm needless to say it put us out. Not for long as we changed it and went back on the track but not for racing as we dropped from 18th to 68th and later in the race some how you guys found us again and hit us 1 more time from all cars on track you guys hit the same car twice. We heard you guys been racing but ...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ogren-Engineering Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 (edited) Post a pic of the car please. E30? Edited February 10, 2017 by flyinglizard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewheelerZ Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 I sure would like to see some video from the other car in that one. Does it look like you didn't clear him by much on the straight and he seems to brake later than you on the inside? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ogren-Engineering Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 Edit function fail . The hit was so hard that the 112 had a good run and that E was plenty clear. . Not like it was leaning on the fender gently . That was a forgot to brake wack . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ogren-Engineering Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 Edit. The dark car was in the right side mirror at the turn in , pounded the brakes, slide over to clean out the E car . Elon's car was not clear by much if any. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elon's car was not clear by much if any. I agree. E's car was giving plenty of room it looks like. 2nd opinions/views are always valuable though!

pintodave Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 Elon's car got a clean run on the outside & left that guy a country mile on the inside - the black car definitely muff'd up and either drove in to deep or had some other kind of brain-foot-hand disconnect failure. While I agree the black car did not have to yield the position, Elon's car had established himself far enough ahead that 2-wide clean racing should have not been an issue. Black car got pinned to the inside, life sucks learn how to deal with it and not take people out when racing 2 wide. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewheelerZ Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 Just so everybody knows he hit us with his rear bumper That would be classed as an atypical corner entry technique for sure. Its all the rage with the drifters these days though to be able to pull off the backwards entry! 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pintodave Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 Just so everybody knows he hit us with his rear bumper Well, in that case, I retract my opinion – clearly you were at fault if you hit his rear bumper 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 Geez. ///M-striped e30s can't catch a break at that end of RA, can they. Sorry to see the damage. That's why we have small stripes on the front valance and the rear "spoiler"? Oh, wait, you have to be going fast to get into trouble...we're safe. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
csadn Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 Just to be clear: Is this the same outfit which runs under the name "Blue Bayou" in the West; or is it a completely-different group?

(If the latter: It's possible they aren't on the Forum.) We are not really sure where they're out of but if somebody can relay this to them that would be great in all seriousness somebody has to talk to them towards the end of the race they also passed a train load of cars under for caution yellow Too many incidents in my opinion for one team specially on the track that has more cars than needed Edited February 10, 2017 by elongoran 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(If the latter: It's possible they aren't on the Forum.) Blue Bayou in the west is a very well run 240SX that I would have no problems going two wide anywhere. Not the same team. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snake Posted February 11, 2017 Report Share Posted February 11, 2017 Looks identical to how we got hit early on in the race. Luckily, it was all cosmetic for us. We ended up taking our video to Chisek and he removed our penalty that we had served as he agreed that it was not our fault. . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
