Even a silly simracer like myself knew that was gonna happen before it did.. Even from TV2 view! <vbg> Save it for later, new track banking is no excuse when its lap 3(ish).
Worst part was they claimed it was due to the spotter's radio being out. BS, Harvick was passing them from underneath, if he didn't know they were there then he's a complete idiot.

I saw the first move and thought he was pushing it, when he went in low and fast the second time I was ready hehe, did that a few times myself learning the new homestead track. Personally I like the late entry then dive down at the apex to get a good run off. Sean

His only hope of escaping this mess with any respect is to "eat crow" and apologize to each team and maybe even buy em dinner :) Any excuses will just make him look more foolish ;) Mitch "Haqsau" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Yeah, and then they tried to blame it on his spotter for not being able to contact him. He said "I didn't know there was a car above me". LOL! He dove right under the both of them! Now, I've done the same thing Sim racing, but didn't know the third car was up there. It happens to us because we don't have live spotters, and we really _can't_ see out the right side of the car half the time. -Larry "Charlie B" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:ZpPtb.3668$[email hidden]... > Even a silly simracer like myself knew that was gonna happen before itdid..

I thought it was poetic! Goodyear brought next year's softer compound tire to Miami for a preview of next year's new rubber. The idea behind it is it will require more tire saving care (less grip on worn rubber) by the driver hence those new young aggressive drivers won't be as successful next year because they've never had to take care of their tires like the veterans do so how perfect was it that Harvick, Newman, and Bush were 3 wide in that corner? ;) -Tim "Charlie B" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:ZpPtb.3668$[email hidden]... > Even a silly simracer like myself knew that was gonna happen before itdid..

Typical Harvick. Remember when he took a hard left from the wall towards the pit at Fontana and absolutely wiped out Little E. Harvick was an also ran that day and Little E was running strong.

And yet when Rudd hit Harvick you'd think it was a capital crime, the way Harvick reacted. "Norman Black" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:YvBub.6379$[email hidden]... > Typical Harvick.

What was avoidable was Dale Jr's ensuing concussion that he proceeded to hide from everyone therefore being a potential hazzard to 42 other drivers and 43 crews on pit road. Jay Beckman Chandler, AZ
