Default When is winning winning?

I want to know what you guys thought about winning. Lets say someone has a slow car, and they are racing someone else, and the other person pulls ahead, but their clutch slips, and the other person puts a few carlengths on before the finish. Would that be considered winning? Or would one person win when the other has to throw brakes because of a car coming?


Oh, does anyone know more info on this street racing thing next fri.?

ALL HYPOTHETHICAL: I lost against a stang a while back because my linkage fucked up and tugged me out of 3rd gear. I was already a car up on the guy, but as soon as I hit neutral he was gone. He effectively won and I tell the story as so. In fact, I'm only lost twice in my car, both due to mechanical failures, and both to fox bodies! YOU BASTARDS GOT LUCKY!

TR does not condone street racing.
It doesn't matter, though, winning is winning, your own mistakes, can cost you a race.

He is talking about the thing at the lakeland track, whoever crosses the finish line first wins no matter what. Unless you redlight.

a race is won when the car in front turn their hazard lights on.
