A message to all Drivers

If you run off track, you have to check to see that its clear before you re enter the track, Do not just keep the gas pinned and pull back on track.
When entering the track from the pits Stay off the racing line until you are up to speed, do not race on your out lap. let other drivers by.
on re-entering the track stay off the racing line until you are up to race speed
and do not block any fast approaching car, you have made the mistake by going off remember, so let them by cleanly

Golden Rule

1. Be 100% sure it's not his fault and just carry on like nothing happened and take the risk of being banned for 30 days.
2. Play on the safe side and wait for the affected drivers, knowing 100% sure you will not get a ban.

I feel for you mate, had that and it's not good On the bright side, you're in buddy!

 

[Ken Bell]

I have a question. Don’t think its a silly one, but hey!
the cars that have BoP, can you feel the power drop-off? What I mean is, can you feel it?

 

[Kek700]

If you drive it back to back, maybe, in isolation no, it is only the stop watch that knows.

bit concerned about this response Ken , not sure if I missed the joke.

 

[Raresch]

I will say I have to test them, but then I remembered this perspective. Can't refuse that.

aka: sign me in
