Hey, I'm Spotty the guy who he was racing (and the one who recorded the video). This was on the last lap of a race and I went to the right hand side (as far right as you can go on that corner) and braked at the 100m line. The reason why I locked up on the corner was because I was too far over to the right (to allow room for him).
The screenshot that he is claiming has debri on it was from a very low resolution screengrab. Here is the full image. http://s3.postimg.org/buhnzzxub/vlcsnap_2014_08_10_01h38m54s194.png
As you can see there is absolutely no debri as he was claiming. The "black bits" he's claiming that were debri was just the low quality video file getting messed up with the shadows. (Note the Lap Time is exactly the same and the position of the car is the same - note the front cars tyre position to the white line is the same).
Ah. I am afraid, he didn't take you out. Nor where you at fault.
This was caused by netcode.
Effectively, from what I understand, this means on your screen, he hit you. However on his he did not. I
don't totally understand the ins and outs of netcode, but its something
I've suffered with alot myself. I've been ''taken'' out several times,
even though for the player who hit me, well they didnt actually touch
me.
This. I tried explaining that this was the likely scenario but he refused to listen; adamant that I deliberately ran him off the track. Unfortunately due to how online works it is possible that the network didn't accurately transfer our positions/movements correctly and it could have caused a collision on his screen. If this was the case, then it is entirely unavoidable and completely unintentional.
Unfortunately Matt was not recording the race so we can't see what happened on his end, however the evidence in the video showing me braking at the correct braking point and moving over to the side, as well as the lack of contact, is evidence that I was not attempting to ram him off the track.
I reject the accusation that I deliberately rammed him from the track and do not appreciate being called a cheater.
