I pass him, and the next lap he passes me on the straight and gives me the finger as he does.we all know there is always going to be the A-hole. Good for you to seek an objective opinion. you can sleep well knowing you aren't the one who is a di*k
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
Did you beat him?
