For your rear bumps on the installation lap I personally do not just get a penalty, it is despicable.

at the start before i turned the camera on the guy slammed on his brakes and i checked on the replay afterwards, you could see he thumped the brake pedal. the guy is named peppe watch out for him he said he does not understand the rolling start rules, last time raced we had to restart 4 times cause of him. as you can see from the video the two leaders shot of the line from the lap, but this guy didnt so a little bump drafting didnt hurt, also the lag factor is a problem to so sometimes you dont notice you've done it till afterwards,

If somebody doesn't know the rules, teach him.

I do not have a karting experience, I would like to discuss contact fighting, it seemed to me that so blatantly pushing an opponent that's not correct, but if it is a good practice, I do not mind

we use the tactic alot in the uk its called bump drafting and that is why so many people here are moving over to the plastic instead of metal bumper because they get bent alot my metal one now has got a ding in it, serega i wasnt talking about you i meant peppe is italian
