Evan Wrote:We go side by side into T1, completely even. Im on the outside and at the very edge of the track. He tracks out and bumps me. No big deal. I pass him, and the next lap he passes me on the straight and gives me the finger as he does.
After the race I asked him what that was about, and he proceeds to cause a scene and start yelling right in the middle of the paddock lane about how I hit him, how its my fault, how I had no right to be there, etc. He even said at one point that I turned in on him. I told him with equal stern-ness that we were side by side, I had every righ t to be there and if blame was to be assigned, it was he who tracked out into me. I grabbed my video but he had no interest in seeing it (ie- the truth)
I went around to several people and showed them the video, including Alex and asked for honest opinion. Every one of them said either racing-no big deal, or he tried to squeeze me.
I had a great time, it was probably some of the most fun Ive had in a race, but it really left a sour taste in my mouth and spoiled any good feeling I had about the race
That guy was a douche, don't let it spoil your mood. He will probably never come back. I was waiting for you to land one to his temple. There were 5-6 of us just standing behind him waiting for you two to throw down. His ass would have been dirt so fast he would be wishing it was a miata that hit him.
