I think riders need to look at what they do when they wash out or fall off on track, pinning it before you're up and straight isn't exactly safe. I know Markham did it last week (don't remember which race) and I barely squeeked by, but the guy behind me wasn't so lucky.

Havoc, I am, but it's gotten old. No sense in trying to make the racing better when everyone else is happy the way it is.

Ddmx, you agree the incidents were penalty worthy, but not with the sevarity. You suggested a time or position penalty. Should that apply to their non-qualifying heat race results? During the main event? Next weeks heat race?
I would have to say a time penalty would go towards the heat race. If not, then that 5 second penalty hits your qualifying time. :lol: At least then it's pretty much an assured disqualification unless you can really haul ass and set a low lap time to get into the fast 40.

Yup, battling for 16th in the heat on what last few laps to go? Very important I'd say.

I wouldn't really like to think that guys yoloing around on the track a normal thing either, but it is. I don't know if it can ever not be that way. People want to do the best they can, and since it's a game they just do whatever that takes.

So apply it to the heat race? Which is no penalty at all. Surely you see the problem that sween is faced with here.

Like I said I can't record demos so I can't comment on my racing, but I don't recall collecting other riders while getting up from any of my crashes. I'd love to be able to take a look though.

Never said it cost me the transfer Jeff. Rules is rules though, right?

No, but you are the keen on punting people. You ride more aggressive, and easily as dirty as anyone.

As I was talking to someone they mentioned something that is quite true.
Everyone is sketchy in mxs
no matter how "good" you are
The game is just shit
people crash
Except for the Game is shit part. This is quite true. Suspension is not called for IMO. Maybe a deduction of points or something.

Never said it costed you the transfer now did I phat? My point is, it was for 16th, you have barely made a main so far. I can understand your frustration. Not every incident needs protested does it?

Keep in mind I know you" want the racing to be better" It will be, just not sure immediate suspension is the best result for it. Could be wrong tho. Eh well Not the first time.

I want to know how I got this reputation of being a dirty rider. Seems to have come out of left field to me. Someone please explain.

I have to use the sensitive skin kind, because I am such a sensitive person.

Coming from personal experience racing with Mark in East last year, and other races over time, he wasn't dirty at all.

Worst part about this is that the guy who is trying to be proactive and make the racing cleaner is the guy who gets flamed for being petty and labeled as dirty. Yet the guys who are flaming will complain about dirty racing the moment it hurts their own results.
