And as someone who has been going back and forth between 4 and 5, I have to admit that as fun as 5 is, 4 is still more fun to me.

Also I finally updated the Spreadsheet with week 2 times and points. Once week 3's done, I'm going to re-do the points in reverse, with more points going to the fastest time. Easier to total up with that, allowing for people who didn't post a time in some races.

I managed a 1:25.969 in a 997 RS at Suzuka. Not a leaderboard time because I also have a stupid Clio up there. I think the Clio thing was from a rivals event, maybe. I'll get a picture of this time up later.

Time for everyone's favorite thing, a racing etiquette question!

I was racing in an ABC'S hopper the other day, and we were on Mugello short. I was chasing a guy into the final corner complex and he ran wide into the grass. I hit the turn and stuck to the left edge of the track. By the time he had corrected and was ready to re-enter, it was just after the turn exit on the very start of the straight. I held my ground on the outside edge of the track, and his two options were: 1) come on anyways and hit me, or 2) wait for me to pass before entering.

He picked #2 and I ended up winning the race. I realize that I could have easily moved right to give him room to re-enter and I would likely have still won. But, in that situation, is one OBLIGATED to move over to let the other guy in? Keep in mind it was on a straight with no other traffic in the vicinity, so I had plenty of room. Secondary question: was I being a DICK?

Heres a hasty MSPaint diagram. My line in Red, other guy in Blue, point of contention in Yellow.

The car on the track gets to pick which part of the track he wants, the guy who's driving through the grass gets to pick up whatever scraps are left for his re-entry attempt.

Plus, if you chased him off the track and didn't follow him off too, the car that remained on the track definitely deserves the position.
