Apparently I braked harder than he did and when I turned it, he decided he had re-established position and then just turned in on top of me (my inside line be damned).  I started an entertaining thread on BARF.

Racer's corner can be so satisfying sometimes.

I liked the move of just throwing the vid up there without really saying anything bad about the other guy.  They did all your work for you.  Well played, sir.   waytogo

Wink  Thanks for noticing.  I'm nothing if not passive-aggressive.

Yep... it's the one place on Barf that I truly enjoy.  Good people.

Well, I broke my longstanding rule and followed the link to BARF. (I just don't have that many brain cells to spare anymore)

It seems like they pretty much all called it, and jumped on the one guy who said, essentially, "meh, that's racing".

So what I want to know is if this guy is such a well-known menace why do they tolerate him? I don't get it...?

Buuuuut... they seem perfectly content to bust the balls of others for non-dangerous infractions.

OK, I'll give up trying to apply logic to the situation. It clearly is the wrong approach.

I'm thinking about saying something to the AFM board.

What I don't get is why he was riding like that in the first place.  I totally respect giving it your all even if you're just trying to keep from being dead last (and I know that that isn't the case here!)  And I can see battling for the championship or a huge pile of money, but taking someone out for the shot at a little plastic trophy seems kinda lame.  Even he's got to realize that he was incredibly lucky not to have put both of you in the hospital.
