Th for your time Red I was about to delete this thread but in a second thought, I think you deserve the answers. Just in case someone else has the same doubts as you.  1- The festival was intended to integrate drivers of all ages, equipment and skills. We had people from 12 to 60 years old racing and having fun! That's what the community is made of. It was just a matter of everyone set their spirits to "FUN" mode.  2- No cheatting messages were ever detected by any admins during any event. If you have a screenshot of something like that, please send it to us privately and we'll be glad to analyze it. If you're talking about other leagues or events, this is not the place to discuss it. 3- Lost of connection are tricky to find a reason but I can assure the server used for the festival is the best server of all HEAT community. It can easily hold up to 20 drivers including overseas connections. I would look for something on your end if I was you. Thank you.  . |

Th for your time Red Hello Mr. Redimuss, I wasen't in attendance for todays races. But I would REALLY LOVE to answer this. # 1. Do you have a replay of the race so I may be able to take a look at what your talking about? Tell me did you look at the replay before you accuse someone, of flying up back on to the track? Do you know what actually happened to the other person? If it's the person I think your talking about. I will say I have raced with him in several RACES and I have NEVER SEEN him act like this. So before you accuse someone of something, it's really good to check the replay first. And foremost this WAS a fun event NOT a league event. #2 Again I was not at the race event. That cheating message that you see with the Cotg2, is most likely SOMEONE entered the server with the wrong Plat. mod. Did you see any red cars on the track? Again do you have a replay you can upload so we can take a look at it. #3. The server you were RACING on belongs to the SpeedSims Road Racing Community. That is a completely legit LEAGUE and server. I think you should be very careful what you say on the forums. #2 People get disconnected from servers all the time. It can be from ANYTHING from someone having a bad connection, to a bad file packet bouncing off of somone's connection and they get disc'd. Secret tools for disconnecting someone. That's a freaking new one. One way for someone to get booted, would of been by one of SpeedSims Admins. AND they are the only one's who know that server command. And again like I said neither SpeedSims admins were at that race to begin with. I hope your post came from you just being totally pist off about the race when you wrote that.  |

Th for your time Red As for the incident, I believe i hit you after you went up the track on an accident i didn't cause, i was riding a line drafting with rookiesrock, and you flew up after an accident, you and 36. Screwed my day. but things happen. |

Just reviewed the race. At race time 7:41, #43 (SpikeG) crosses the track after loosing control due a trip onto the grass and hits the #92 (Redimuss). After this, the #12 (Ucrdoh) has no place to go and collects the #92 that had already hit the wall. Racing accident, case and thread closed. |

1 why are people w/o a wheel alowed? You care to tell us how to tell if someone runs by wheel, joystick, joypad or keyboard ? 2 when are people who constantly get may b cheating msgs gonna b banned?? strictly up to the race admin. I can only tell from past RC experience; if people got the cheater msg that was usually taken for a hint that someone (!) was running just a wrong version of the car, having missed last update. If the same guy constantly got cheater msg on next shows as well, race admins took a 2nd look at it. And that indeed got some few drivers banned - and then not just for next race 3 There also seem to be a way to get the server to disconnect a player covertly has happened to me way to often to be a coincidence. theres always been secet tools for this game and this seems to be a new one... again?? you decide.. Dunno if there's such tools as you mentioned, never heard of anything like this. But from having set up the server, I can assure you, the server doesn't run anything alike. If the server disconnects you, there's most like one of 2 optional problem: your PC's response time is too long, you have run into a time-out. There's a server setting how to handle long response times. The other optional problem is bandwidth. In case the number of connected drivers exceed server bandwidth, occasionally those with longer response time will get dropped off. Now that server has 3.5 MB upload bandwidth. Should be ok to handle > 22 cars easily even in fat mode |

i had a similar experience in the cts on Sunday a yellow truck got all down on the grass lost it of course and came across the track. i managed to miss the culprit; but clipped the wall and had to nurse the right front tire for 15 laps so that i could one stop the race. was frustrating to say the least. Wonder who was racing that yellow #10.

For the Daytona race It wasn't fair to those who got wrecked on that 5th restart or however many there were. You guys said this is the last restart about 3 times. The one restart that happened we had already completed 2 laps but for some reason it got restarted once again for people wrecking with NO grid issues.

The one restart that happened we had already completed 2 laps but for some reason it got restarted once again for people wrecking with NO grid issues. Due the highly mixed skill level of the drivers, the race restarting procedure was announced on the pre-race briefing to all drivers. Everyone agreed since it wanst a league race. The claim about "completed 2 laps" is not true. I was in charge of the restarts (and started from the back of the pack just to take care of the procedures myself). The one deciding what was reasonable to restart was me and I stand to my decisions. All restarts were made when the most part of the pack was still to complete the first lap. On top of that, 2 laps completed in Daytona would be something close to 2 minutes into a race and ..... frankly, I'm not that stupid to restart a race that far. . |

You know your being a little harsh IMHO.. The 10 year Nascar Heat Festival was about celebrating 10 years of heat.. It was about having fun, and having guys of different driving calibers to get together and have some fun. It wasen't a league race. Heck we had guys join in the fun, who never even been online before. It was actually great to see some of them, enjoy heat online for the first time...All I see you is bi$ching. Next time since you know so much, why don't you give a helping hand in community events since your such an expert. Everyone volunteered there time to kick this weekend festivities off. Instead of b*itching at Blaxman, why don't you thank the GUYS who spend all there free time creating all these AWESOME mods so we can continue to enjoy heat for all these years!! |

You could've taken it up with me in PM but since you want to air Dirty Laundry
Yes I do race with a controller but I've always used a controller in racing games whether they be on the PC or PS2, Atari etc... It's quite easy to race superspeedways with a controller. As you see in the video when the #20 lost control I went all the way to the apron to avoid him but still got damage from that little collision which led to me mowing the infield ;D , Even though I was steering to the left laws of physics still apply especially at high speeds. The outcome might've been different had I not inadvertently loaded the wrong setup before the race. To clarify I was running 4th while mowing the infield ;D
Another thing there were only 3 restarts all of them before the 2nd lap began
We should all Thank Blaxman for the events, without him this 10th anniversary festival probabaly would've never happened.

ucdl?? or what ever his name is ( I'll be nice) drives half a mile in grass and flies up track ruining it 4 me just like most league races.
