Default Gp Joke

when they're not timing their races

or forgetting to get the starting gate out of the way in route races

they're forgetting to get the starting gate in place for races

nice delay in today's 4th


this ****in' track sets all sorts of BUSH records


EDIT: so, after a 10 minute delay, Lezcano falls off and the race is declared a no contest. Nice. 2 no contests in two weeks (and about 10 incompletely timed races). Way to go.

Trujillo's ride in R8 was a joke too. What's the point of hustling to the lead if you're just going to let everyone else catch up?

That ride was still better than Maragh's on Doctor Carina. That was a HORROR!

we had a player go storming out on their opening day claiming that the starting gate no contest incident was a fix or something like that. Now this is a guy who plays 6 days a week and he thought it was a fix.

So today i saw him after the no contest, and he told me he's calling GP no contest downs and refusing to bet them. however he refuses to bet us too LOL
