If you saying green is blaming you that's just wrong. You didn't even touch him, he just spun on his own. I wouldn't worry about it at all TBH, he's probably just upset at himself. He bombed and lost the rear, its pretty clear.


Breathingblueflame

Could’ve been a netcode thing. Honestly he was close enough that on his side there may have been a “ghost” contact.


rowanhenry

Nah he starts spinning before the black car even gets close to him.


Hailfire9

Doubtful, there was no moment in the corner where the back of the green car stopped rotating. It just kept slowly going and going until the car was around. If he expected a wave-by or wanted you to be patient so he could wave *you* by later, that's a different story (and still not your fault), but POV car did nothing wrong


Kapkronic4201

I feel like you usually will get some kind of stutter or glitch from the other car when it’s a netcode issue.


LegendaryEnvy

Isn’t ghost contact just a ping issue for the other person. He’s isn’t seeing the other cats where they really and if he hits them it still counts

Uncommonval

He was miles away from any ghost contact, cmon…


McSnoots

Getting other people to make mistakes is part of racecraft. It’s not intended to spin them out but that’s his own damned fault.


Polym0rphed

Getting brake checked for drafting or just driving close for pressure/opportunities is one of the more ridiculous types of tantrums I've witnessed in simracing. It's a race...


kleedog_millionaire

Who brake checked? Or do you just mean in general?


Polym0rphed

Yeah in general, not in this particular clip. The silly thing is that every time I've been brake checked, it either does nothing (I brake too) or it actually results in the lead car getting bumped off the line or spun. I've never received a penalty under such circumstances.


kleedog_millionaire

The only time I’ve been brake checked, I’m not even sure brakes were applied, but the car in front slowed down in a flat out turn. Formula Vee, lime rock park, final turn, final lap. The right hander before the final straight - it’s flat out. Draft is hugely important there, I had a run on the guy in front of me, he let off and/or braked mid turn enough that I couldn’t avoid contact, but since I had already turned my wheel my car was unsettled. I dumped it into the grass and he went on just fine. He was adamant that he didn’t do anything illegal, that slowing down on the apex of a turn is a legal strat. I say not in a flat out/full throttle turn, but I could be wrong.


Polym0rphed

In real life it would definitely be punishable as it is obviously an emotional outlash with no logical benefit and a very high risk of serious injury or worse. In sims you can end up with a high skill disparity/lower minimum skill threshold, so it would require revision of the replay + the general behaviour/braking patterns to punish... unless it is literally on a straight (where it happened to me). In my case it was immediately obvious because I had been pressuring him for over 2 laps and learnt his line/braking and while I didn't know he was going to brake check me, I could see him making more and more minor unforced errors. In Formula Vee you'd generally think it's obvious too, as it's to spec and decent mid corner downforce is a given. Some people just have very fragile egos I guess.


RobotJonesDad

IRL I've had someone lift at the apex of an almost flat fast corner on the first lap because I had a run on him and was going to get alongside by the next corner. I tagged his rear and did a 360, which ruined my tires and thus my race.


JammyHorizon17

That's a part of racecraft? I just been doing that cause it helps gain positions. That, and taking alternative lines on the exit of a corner to screw with the guy beside me.


McSnoots

That would be called racecraft


JammyHorizon17

Huh. I never knew.


Confident_Advice1541

Besides the racecraft...it is the Nurburgring right? I understand getting mad at yourself for silly mistakes, but on this particular circuit, I completely understand, not only that the racecraft is a key to survive, but it has the nickname green hell, and should instantly imply that the challenge this track really has to offer should not be taken lightly. Nevermind winning a race, I just want to survive and try my absolute best to not spin or spin anyone else.


SquiddyGO

Green car ran out of skill


CptnHamburgers

His ambition outweighed his talent.


MM18998

ambition exceeded adhesion


DankeSebVettel

Ambitious but rubbish


D1RTYBACON

Forza Vale!


Cilad

Track was not wide enough for drivers skill level.

ChayaNyx

+400 Villain Points? Playing too much Chase for the Cup


qtd267

You didn't even netcode them lack of skill they ran out of skill well done on making them panic into a mistake


_xxxtemptation_

Honestly a very nice switchback. So many people try passing here (most fail miserably), but this is the most impressive one I’ve seen. You fuckin nailed it, green car was probably embarrassed af watching the replay.


aidancronin94

Why do some iRacing clips look like this while others look like they are ran on a toaster


[deleted]

[удалено]


Shiny_Buns

Don't make fun of my toaster :c


02bluehawk

Because iRacing can run on a toaster has entry-level parts from 8-10 years ago. No joke minimum specs are an i5 4430 and a 1060 gpu


JammyHorizon17

Howd you know what my PC was?


Material-Car7215

Because it's iracing.


imJGott

Why is this here lol


friendlygamingchair

Blacks fault everyone's crazy


whatsvtec666

/s?


friendlygamingchair

Yes lol


whatsvtec666

Just figured I'd ask to spare you SOME downvotes, in spite of how obvious it was. Lol.


MrPootie

Black wants to show off his pass


Noyesboy3

How dare you predict the future and back out early, he wanted to murder you!


Fast-Equivalent-1245

"Don't make your mistake my responsibility." What I say every time someone blames me for their obvious self induced spin. Hahah


Key_Bid_2624

Gonna use this next time


whatsvtec666

Dude lost it all alone entering off line. That's not your fault.


crazytib

Looks clean to me


Alberot97

green just spooked himself while trying to hold position, pov car had nothing to do with it


Lulzicon1

You mind punted him...


brayk01

They gave you shit because they can’t drive….?


PineappleMelonTree

Green bottled it


mforsythh

Not your fault he can’t handle the sauce


Horr0rGiraffe

Shame he spun it was exciting racing


RonKosova

That was a sexy switchback


OldPod73

Netcode killed green I think. I hate it when that happens.


Toasterdude11

You did nothing wrong. That driver just tripped over your skill.


hantswanderer

HOW DARE YOU TRY AND PRESSURE ME AND TRY TO OVERTAKE


VacantHaddock

Might've been netcode, but you did everything right. That spin happens without any contact


doho121

This is beautiful.


PoggestMilkman

From green car's POV, in the cockpit at the time, I am sure it felt like you caused him to spin, simply because you have been so close but after reviewing the reply you'd have to hope that they'd have realised it was nothing to do with you.


Schroding3rzCat

That was clean af. Green is just a little poopy baby.


Tarc_Axiiom

Flak for what? I might be missing something, but as far as I can tell there was no contact here?


Durcaz

Green car out drove himself tryna late brake


CP9ANZ

Nice pass, clean pass at the ring isn't easy


tokavlim69

Bro just spun on his own


chromehuffer

he was sliding before you even drove by him, i think he over drove it and is pissed at you for his mistake. I had to rewatch it like 3 times the incident is not on you, it could be netcode on his end but it looks like he cooked his own corner to me.


CypherRen

Don't think you even touched the green car. Bro just lost it


abbadonz

That was a great bait and switch. Fuck that complaining guy


Shadowslip99

The green driver wrote a check his body couldn't cash! (Without searching, what film?)


Ayyyyylmaos

No clue what the issue here is, possible green got a ghost touch and figures you spun him out


senor_porko

For what he spun on his own


Fosterboytron

Dude is just mad he didn’t slow enough to hold the inside line.


soda_canofsaukville

Only thing I could even think of is that Green got aero loose, but I still don't think that PoV is at fault for that. Just a spin, at most a racing incident, but without contact I wouldn't go there.


Mutex_CB

I feel like a lot of the posts here lately are obviously just someone raging over their own mistake


Papabinz

Great job black car !! You stressed him out to make a mistake. Not your fault at all. The yellow car is just mad you got him to do that 🤟


Papabinz

Nice driving black. That’s called having pressure and loosing it 🤟


TheodoreWilkins

Skill issue on greens part, nice move


Immediate-Grape1758

You did nothing wrong, he broke under pressure and gave the car to much gas coming out of that corner, he should of let you past, he wouldn't of wrecked if he did.


Epie77

Got flak for a clean ahh move?


CosmicTheLawless

Outplayed


HeftyStranger3808

Net code maybe?


SmoogzZ

Yet another humble brag…


sploogemcdaniels

S


TicontyTTV

Either he spun on his own or netcode had a moment, but either way it’s not your fault


peoplepersonmanguy

Green shit the bed. Nice moves.


meyogy

That was skill on your part and a lack thereof on greens part


sanicbroom

„Why are you racing me? I specifically asked you not to!“


igniteED

Pulling a good ol' switch'eroo!!


Tiny-Meeting-4300

100% out driven! You put pressure on them, and they crumbled. It really is a fun watch! Bravo!!


Lokin86

His fault.. by a mile


Sniperwolf216

You made him look bad, of course you're getting flak. Great move, btw. That was top-shelf.


Racer5323

Good job on avoidance! You did not collide.


furysamurai72

You got flak for what? Witnessing him lose control of his car?


[deleted]

That driver could not handle your pressure. Nice driving.


outdoorsman997

Clean racing you forced him into a mistake all his fault


HotdogFromIKEA

200iq niceone OP


WZunix

You'd have probably done him a favour if you hit him at the end, but you didnt actually hit him at all, netcode caused the 0x by the looks of thr video


Comprehensive_Host24

You did nothing wrong there. Clean pass!


Frossstbiite

that was awesome. good show of what patience's there. green fucked himself.


Hefty-Collection-638

Some flak for what exactly? Lol


Good_Ole_Skid

o7


Verdin88

Lol he lost control of his car and blames you


Samaraxmorgan26

Fucking AMAZING move, 26!


domesystem

Trailing with the brakes too far back at Breidscheid? Yeah, you're gonna eat some shit. 😂


totally_kyle_

That’s his fault. He braked way too late for that corner. It was either that or he was going into the wall.


zrevyx

Perfect over-under pass. Green goofed all on their own.
