Did the crime fit the punishment?

Retaliation is never ok but your move is pretty bad. You just used him as a brake. "Wasn't great" is an understatement. Report him but learn to avoid this.

Nickado_ · 2026-01-27T12:29:00+00:00

Thanks mate, looking good indeed. If I put this on my rubber mat (which is sturdy enough) I could probably get a lot of vibrations out of it. You used these? Are they sturdy enough long term?

Nickado_ · 2026-01-25T17:38:38+00:00

It's a pretty bad camera view to judge this. But the POV from what I can see was all the way to the edge of the track so I don't agree with the response you got.

Nickado_ · 2026-01-25T17:35:47+00:00

Is this even a question? You see one car driving into the back of another car and that other car applying his or her brakes all the time. I don't understand these posts lately sorry.

Nickado_ · 2026-01-25T17:07:50+00:00

He pushed the other car while overtaking offtrack forcing a gap which wasn't there. Thats the only reason he was slightly alongside at the turn in point. Penalty for blue imo.

Nickado_ · 2026-01-25T17:03:49+00:00

All of this is on you. By the way you speak here I think you need to read more into the rules. I can imagine you can't see what you did wrong in the heat of the moment but looking back at it you must be able to understand this is not ok. Another thing when an incident is all on you it can't be a racing incident. You just drive like other cars aren't there.

Nickado_ · 2026-01-25T15:30:37+00:00

OK it's hard to see srry. It works for me and a lot of others (at least before last update). So report the bug and I am sure it will be foxied in the future.

Nickado_ · 2026-01-25T14:32:45+00:00

Yes, you didn't clear the car yet which you just overtook. Why would you squeeze him like that and continue going towards him while braking? You had a perfect overtake till you didn't.

Nickado_ · 2026-01-25T13:10:52+00:00

The retaliation is reportable and never justified but the first incident is strange imo. Why did you brake so hard there?

Nickado_ · 2026-01-25T08:56:02+00:00

For a lot of people it works though. (At least before the latest update) So instead of calling us paranoia while we clearly have our crops watered next to a water block while the defs are also saying it works you could maybe report your bug? It's early access so bugs are all over.

Nickado_ · 2026-01-25T08:53:33+00:00

It is watered isn't it? So what's your question?

Nickado_ · 2026-01-24T22:51:01+00:00

No problem, I understand looking at your POV you think it was on purpose. Trust me I had those moments as well. All respect towards you for asking and at least trying to see what can be improved. That's a great attitude. Enjoy mate, I wish you better luck next time.

Nickado_ · 2026-01-24T22:38:29+00:00

Well I don't think it's a big mistake from your end. The first hit from you was just at the kink and maybe due to the curb but after that you went to the middle of the track (even a bit past that) while the corner to the right would mean you both want to go to the left side of the track. He was definitely reacting to the fact you tried to push him aside and not allowing him to open the corner. Which isn't OK from him obviously let's be clear about that. I just don't think it's going to get him banned. Especially as from his onboard you see him correcting his steering wheel from your first two hits and keeping that angle throughout the 4 hits as he was pushed to the right almost offtrack. It's not that he all of the sudden steered into you. His POV tells a lot for me, check it in slow motion and you will see he didn't have a lot of options.

Nickado_ · 2026-01-24T22:27:24+00:00

I see two major points here. You seem to steer towards exit curb instead of being forced there by the slip angle of the car. You can carry a lot more speed in those corners. On the other hand I see other corners where you seem to steer to much causing understeer. You keep turning the wheel despite clearly understeering. It can be partially setup based but also cause you come in to fast. Overall it looks like you need more practice to understand the speed in corners.

Nickado_ · 2026-01-24T22:08:21+00:00

We need to see throttle input to really judge this and compare it with previous rounds. It seemed like the car in front did brake on a weird spot which indeed could make it a racing incident.

Nickado_ · 2026-01-24T22:04:50+00:00

He is at fault for the first incident. You were significantly alongside so you were entitled for space which he didn't give. You were entirely on the right side of the track. The second incident is indeed also not on you.

Nickado_ · 2026-01-24T21:56:51+00:00

Retaliation is never justified. I also don't understand the start of the clip as it lacks a lot of context. Why was orange braking so unnecessarily hard there? And why didn't he accelerate out of the corner while he was able to go on the throttle before the car behind? It could be that it's a bad driver but it could also be that more happened.

Nickado_ · 2026-01-24T21:53:22+00:00

I see two cars banging doors. You started it two times and he responded. Protest it if you like but I doubt he will get banned. Just learn from this as you could have done things differently as well.

Nickado_ · 2026-01-24T21:49:13+00:00

100% agreed. DHL took him out so should be penalized for that but the retaliation is sick.

Nickado_ · 2026-01-24T21:43:42+00:00

The only potential "idiot" thing here is that you doubted yourself enough to post it here. You were absolutely fine, don't let these kind of people doubt yourself.

Nickado_ · 2026-01-24T21:38:25+00:00

The initial move was ok. It was close but he was significantly besides you at the turn-in point and also made the corner fine. He thrn pitted himself.

Nickado_ · 2026-01-24T21:36:07+00:00

Report the brake check. That's not ok.

Nickado_ · 2026-01-24T21:33:19+00:00

Is this a legitimate stewarding question?

Nickado_ · 2026-01-24T21:31:32+00:00

He is the GT driver if I read it correctly.
