One of the most anticipated Ruff Gaming Competitions got underway on Forza 4 last night! An exciting race, with plenty to keep the stewards busy!
Late into the 2nd lap, an incident between Bawkicker and Wackybar8 needed the stewards investigation, with Baw running into the back of Wackybar and ending his race. After reviewing the footage many, many times, the stewards have decided that the accident was a result of careless driving by Bawkicker, however we don't feel it was his intention to end Wackybars race. Therefore no punishment has been given, but Wackybar has been awarded 6 points, rather than the 4 he should have received for his finishing position, as a small compensation for the incident.
I would just like to use this opportunity to remind all drivers within the championship that collisions and intentionally trying to affect someones race will result in loss of championship points and depending on severity of the incident, exclusion from the competition! I would also like to ask all drivers to try and at least run round the track a few times before the race night to try and get used to the track! We don't want to have to punish people, its not what we are about, however if a driver continues to drive carelessly, disregarding the rules of the championship, we will be left with no choice. The championship is focused on pure racing, just to make a change from our usual chaos! You have been warned
Up front Mehwarrior had taken an early commanding lead, with T3RRAF0RM following close by! A lag related incident between BigAndiD and Mehwarrior, resulted in damage to Mehwarriors car! This resulted in a 2 second per lap loss in time, meaning that a pit stop was inevitable! T3RRAF0RM stormed into the lead and from then on was untouchable. Mehwarrior and mikethemute kept close tabs on the front of the race but T3RRAFORM did enough to keep the distance between them! Further down the grid Dave AVFC was having control issues (it kept dying!) which ruined his race as his car was damaged that badly at one point that he couldn't go forward and had to reverse down the track to the pits! A necessary pit stop by BigAndiD allowed IcemanD18 to close the gap for 5th between them, and with 3 laps to go, both were trading positions before a mistake by BigAndiD allowed Iceman in with 1 lap remaining!

Overall a great race and congratulations to T3RRAF0RM on his victory and I look forward to the next round!

Please post below any comments

I must apoliogise for a bump with BigAndiD. To be honest I can't recall whether I broke too late or Andi broke too early but it did result in him needing the pits and not me. Happy for the stewards to look at the incident and decide if any action is required (no idea which lap this was on - about 10 I think).

Great racing though. Very well raced by Terraform, Meh and Mike.

Great racing guys I really enjoyed it, was hoping for a race win but I'll take the fastest lap

quite pleased with that, 7th is good for me, lol. Even though i had been practising all week with B class, so a last minute change of car. not a clue how i missed that.

Anyway, managed to complete all 30 laps, which was a first too, lol

Think I may just bow out chaps cos I' m always gona smash into someone. I will admit I will never care about tyre pressure, temperature and wind factor from back markers or that I'm 2005343 feet away from Dave. I probably won't find time to practice before the races and last night I think I was in the pit every 2 laps. Fact is I'm shit and will always be a hazard. Sorry for ruining your Game Wacky it wasn't my intention.
Plus half way through my attention was on food and my girlfriend, not necessary in that order.

All the best funkers

Its completely up to you mate, don't feel you need to drop out because of last night

Baw mate i know you wouldn't put me out the race intentionally and it's not a problem mate. Thanks for the extra points and I'm looking forward to the next race

have you tried a AWD car? Could be a little easier to control if struggle with RWD

Head down to the 180 towards the end of the lap, stay to the left hand side of the track and you will see the entrance, you will generally miss it if you approach at racing speed! I saw the exit of the pit so i took it slow next time round just to work out where it was!

I've tuned and gifted two 4x4 cars for you. load the game and then press the left trigger and you should have a message saying you've been gifted 2x cars from T3RRAF0RM. All you need to do is accept it. Hope it helps

Thanks, that's sound cheers

What a difference man cheers, your some guy.
Maybe my previous approach of picking a car cause it looks like the bat mobile wasn't the best

Thanks
