PS4 GTA V Online
Discussion
t ones and see if you can see win Hey, guys, really sorry that I rage quit last night. Like I said, as I tried to spectate you guys it claimed that it was a private session and I needed to be invited. Since this came after another disaster trying to stream earlier in the day it was sort of the last straw, I threw my controller across the room and had a big old sulk.
I'm sorry I put that ahead of trying to make sure you guys had a good evening, wasn't really fair of me. I think I've been having problems just playing games for the enjoyment of it of late, so I'm going to try and back off doing that for a while. Again, I'm really sorry I keep screwing these sort of things up, I've been failing to get the Germans in, to do a TG challenge... I think it's just not been my 'thing' of late.
If you guys wanna get in contact, you always can, but I probably won't be on GTA5 as much. Again, apologies, I let all you guys down.

... we all had a great race! - we didn't realise you wouldn't be allowed to spectate after leaving, i think we will be all up for running the same track again and same team setup soon! (maybe some sort of PRO / AM setup as there was quite a gulf in lap times!)I'm sorry I put that ahead of trying to make sure you guys had a good evening, wasn't really fair of me.

We still carried on with the race - it's a shame you quit because if you'd been there, the fifth person would have been able to finish, and hopefully all of them. Seemed such a good idea at the time 
If the race had been two laps shorter, Joyrider would have still been ahead of me; even one lap shorter and it would have been touch and go. I'm not sure how it should be scored but it looks like a dead heat between DJ and Joyrider, and me and Crafty.

Yeh, I was only half a lap from finishing so Alex must have been not far from the line at all! Who ever it was in the lead early on was way ahead of the others as they lapped me quite a while before the rest.. maybe a lap or two! also I don't know how you guys are so quick on that track! I think I go for slow metronomic consistency.... If the race had been two laps shorter, Joyrider would have still been ahead of me; even one lap shorter and it would have been touch and go.

Challenger, don't beat yourself up mate! These things happen, for us it was still an excellent and really enjoyable race, if anything we felt bad because it wouldn't let you rejoin.
As I said already, I'd love to do the same track again and maybe different cars.
Here's an idea off the top of my head... everyone has a week to do time trials and set a best lap time.
Then depending on your time it puts you in either the fastest car, a mid range or slower car? (Obviously the fastest drivers in the slowest cars)
That should even things out a bit
And I think I speak for everyone here, but next time join in and race with us Challenger, you'll get much more enjoyment from it (unless you prefer to spectate and stream of course - its up to you)
We've all got pissed off and quit at some point (I know I have!), so move on and look forward to the next race/laugh.
I'm currently uploading videos from the race, will post them as soon as they've processed.

Pt1 is good, I got a lucky start avoiding the accident near the narrow bit so got into 2nd in the Picador, then everyone catches up and goes past in the Dominators taking me back to 6th.
Alex's crash over the wall is in Pt2 at 4:50
Our swap over just right near the end of Pt1, then Pt2 gets interesting with all the drivers and places swapping round, lots of overtaking back and forth.
I was then pushing hard in the Dominator for the 2nd part, caught up with Arkose (10:50 Pt2 onwards, spun on the corner near the arena, then had to catch him again and had a tangle on the left turn near the railway track. Somehow Jobbo managed to squeeze between the both of us taking the lead. After a crash his lead went to around 12 seconds, with us both racing for line in Dominators. I got it down to 9 seconds at one point but ended up 2nd with a 13 second gap.
Well worth watching it all if you have the time, I think everyone makes an appearance at some point

As DJ said don't beat yourself up buddy. We've all rage quit from time to time. There's nothing wrong with taking a bit of time off if you're not feeling it just now either, I've not been on much as I've got bored of the grind.

I like the sound of the ranked racing though. I liked that track when I drove it last week so I'd be up for having a go at racing on it.
So we'd do a set car for qualy then rank appropriate cars for the race?

you sort of hit the barrier, lost a bit of speed then it was time to turn into the corner! I was hoping you would steam around the outside of me before the turn...
Challenger - don't take gta so seriously , it's just a game enjoy purely assing around.
You missed myself and glades slick pit stop , at least it would of been if i came in at lap 10 rather than drive past glade in the pits and do another lap
