Just read thru this thread and sorry that I did for many reasons.

Skinnee I consider a friend and what I saw was bad judgement pushed by Futuremarks inability to get drivers validated and thats an old issue.
Not defending what he did, just saying I mentally tried putting myself in his position and understand his thinking at the time.
Cam; Coming here and spitting it all out took balls and Thank you for that.

This hobby needs these competitions but they all need to be in settings that are seen by dispassionate judges not submissions done at someones home.

It hurts the hobby and all of us with it.
I don't know the answers but anything won by cheating isn't a win and has no value at all.
I'd rather come in last and know I gave it my best honest attempt than come in first by cheating.
