You guys have both edited your posts, so I can only respond to what I'm seeing now, hours later.
1) Op did not cheat. He did an experiment. If he were cheating, he would not have given up the penalty time, nor would he have posted his results. Cheating implies intention, and his intention was not to gain an advantage but to see what the game would allow without any detriment to anyone.
2) Calling something "uncompetitive" might sound insulting, but if there were 6 guys in the race and they all had lap times multiple seconds apart, that's like... not very competitive, right? I'm not thinking Joe's intention was to put down folks that are slower than he is, but to further illustrate his point that he was not intending to disadvantage anyone in the race (i.e. he was making sure his experiment would not be seen as an attempt to cheat).
3) Personally I'd be fine with a permaban for anyone obviously intentionally cutting the track in order to gain an advantage* in a race. See points 1 and 2 above in that Joe shouldn't be counted among those doing the cheating.
Hey Russell, no worries mate, great post. Have to disagree with you on points 1 and 2 though. Point 1, cutting a track on purpose whilst a race is underway is cheating. If people want to test a theory they can do that in an AI race, Qualy or practice before a race. 2, there were 9 cars entered in the race including myself. If you look at the results of that race, you can see that mine and others sector times were not far off the winner's times, so being made out to be uncompetitive is disrespectful. A protest has been lodged with video (not relating to the OP though). Cheers AussieStig
