Lancer · 10-17-2009, 07:39 PM

Wow ! Can't believe how much of a jerk the Corvette driver is.
It's long but worth it.

Whoa as posted on the link , pure road rage.

Damn good driving from the lachute guy, I thought he was going to catch up and blimp his rear to the guard rails

EvilDeadFan · 10-17-2009, 08:32 PM

That vette was quite a jerk. The lachute driver always seemed to give everyone enough room, whereas the vette seemed to just stick his nose in no matter what, and it even seems like he hit the guy mid way.

aznterrorist · 10-17-2009, 08:41 PM

vette guy def did not leave enough room.. the lachute driver almost beat him to the line after all that too

97gst · 10-17-2009, 08:42 PM

In all fairness, the Subaru driver appears to be the douche.

A) he takes a weird line into a corner, swerves left than back to the right in front of the vette causing himself to get clipped in the back. Unlikely the vette clipped him there on purpose.

B) then he decides to come back on course, not waiting for when it is safe to do so, but deliberately trying to T-bone the vette in the passanger side door. Not smart.

I know this forum is full of Lachute nuthangers, but I hope they boot that guy. A deliberate T-bone is much more serious than a light bump in the back in a corner.

It's even more clear here:

This guys comment is exactly how I see it:

"It doesn't look like exactly he rammed him... The scooby DID ram him.

He got in the line and the scooby driver closed it hard. Both are at fault here. "

That's how I see it too. When I saw how badly he cut off the Subaru in a way that almost cost an accident, I could tell this asshole wasn't accepting the fact the Subaru was owning him. I am positive the hit from behind was intentional. That fucker had it coming, I was glad the Subaru hit him coming back on the track. He was over driving his car.

Lancer · 10-17-2009, 08:59 PM

97GST, the Vette had no intention of making that corner. All he wanted was taking that Subi out. He pretty much understeered into him.

The subi driver then became a jerk himself by retaliating and under steering into the vette himself coming back on the track.

However the Vette driver instigated the whole situation from the beginning of this video.

What we don't see is what happens before.

I strongly disagree. Look at the youtube video from 0:12 to 0:15. Watch how quickly the vette gains when the impreza goes wide. To me the vette clearly thought he had room to pass the slower car on the inside. Then the impreza - after going way wide on a sweeping corner - decides to cut back in.

Vette is front door to back tire with the impreza when the suburu cuts back in. Not exactly a pit manuver.

Point A is debatable, it's amateur racing.

Point B is 100% intentional ramming.

I agree with 97gst here, the subbie t-boned him on purpose. If you leave the track you don't come back on like that he was pissed (perhaps rightly so) but he should not have come back like that.

This stupid track (icar) is most of the reason, all the run-off is cement so when you go off it's like you didn't go off you can just come back at full speed.

**NTIMD8** · 10-17-2009, 10:48 PM

If you go off the track it is your job to get back on safely and not the job of other to have to avoid you.

simon · 10-17-2009, 11:05 PM

true and he still has a broken windshield! huhuhuhu

Lancer · 10-17-2009, 11:30 PM

Watch the vid I posted again starting at 3:30.

Nah, I strongly disagree. I think it's easier to see that the Suby driver did not intend to cut the Corvette driver at all. The Corvette driver simply plowed right into him not slowing down for that corner. The Corvette isn't faster on that course that day, that Subi owned him. The only reason he caught back was slower traffic. When he saw the sweeping curve and the subi going a little too wide, that wreckless motherfucker just stepped on it and plowed right into the subbie.

I should know, that's my favorite technique in Grand Turismo Prologue :P

man, I just rewatched the video you posted.
At 14 seconds, you can clearly see the Vette losing control and SLIDING into the Subaru.
It's not the Subaru that changes directions.

For sure, that's where they both were wrong.

simon · 10-18-2009, 11:43 AM

no but look at the broken windshield! not safe man not safe

DVDr · 10-18-2009, 11:49 AM

Heres a good take of the Tboning

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dswSF...eature=related

After watching a few times over, I think both drivers are at wrong. As stated the subie probably had to wait his turn to get back onto the track but just gave her.

ghache · 10-18-2009, 11:59 AM

they are both at fault for the t bone, the vette closed him and the Subaru driver didn't back off.

they're both professional drivers it wasn't am. The scooby takes the same line the whole time check any other lap at that same place. The difference in line is just AWD line vs RWD line thats why they look like they're taking funny lines. That wasn't the first time the vette tried to squeeze in somewhere he shouldn't have plus when the scoob did it to him he cut him off too (re-watch the video) Guaranteed they were both getting pissed off at eachother the whole time.

here's what happens and its justified in my opinion. This is pro's btw kleinubing we all know.

blackfoot · 10-18-2009, 01:14 PM

he second hit was all corvette fault in my opinion.. the car came out of nowhere and jump in front of the subbie. if the subbie wasnt there and the corvette would have maintained that line at the speed he was driving for the corner, the corvette would have driven right off the track.

it was the corvettes intention to cut off the subbie at that corner...

as the subbie driver i would have already been looking at my next corner while being already half way through the corner in question.. and then a corvette comes out of nowhere to cut you off,and its clear as day that its on purpose... the corvette being hit in that corner was his own fault

93GTCANADA · 10-18-2009, 01:31 PM

i agree with blackfoot on this one.
