Figured those would be the results... or at least the top 8. The Top 8 most popular PBCup guys get in, and everyone else sent to the lower series... who could of seen that coming. Take me of the roster Favoritism at it's best. well, that is pathetic. thanks guys. great cars everyone. |

Take me of the roster Favoritism at it's best. Ugh, get over yourself. There is no favoritism. The best cars get the best finishes. Wondering why you're always in the back? Look at your cars then look at the winners, there's your reason right there. Your creativity/skillset is nowhere near the people that are the best at this ex. spud, Energy, Thermite, and more. Most of those guys have been around since the beginning of this whole thing and that's why they win. The real point is that you need to stop being so -Blam- salty when you lose. Accept it and move on. If you can't do that, then a good idea would be to remove yourself from the PBC completely. |

I'm not mad about my finish at all. I just threw it together wasn't expecting to be in top series. But how in the hell did Thermite get has good of a finish has he did... His design is so simple a 3rd grader could make it... Like seriously... I'm happy for Spudweiser getting the win, his car was awesome, and Great job Gatoradefan, but your car should have been scored a lot higher. Since Thermite is such a good painter usually, people scored him higher. I mean hell i scored him a 5 of 5 for his sponsors, they are incredibly done. I have nothing against Thermite, or any of you. You guys have helped me out, and made me a better painter. I Entered the first race at last minute for the hell of it, i was putting my resignation in anyways. I don't have the time anymore to create PBCup cars. I'd love to stay and gain more experience, but i just don't have the time. So you guys can bash me all you want, but realize I do respect you all. I didn't mean anything hurtful by saying there was favoritism, and I am sorry to anyone I offended.

With the loss of Vader and now apperantly Codrock. Does this change how the series will be split? Or will Bristol be 8 for the Snap-On and 6 for the Exide?

@hartwig: Honestly, I doubt we even need to ban him. If he feels that strongly about how the PBC is being run, I don't think we'll be seeing him around here volentarilly.
I don't even se how you could say that the scoring was rigged. We all where here when scoring was discussed, and it's not like there isn't a thread open about it.

Congrats to my former teammate Gatoradefan on his first career win! If I must finish second, it's only fitting that it is behind the guy who brought me in to the PBC.
On an unrelated note, does anyone have the spreadsheet that had everyone's PBC stats? I'm thinking about doing a Jayski style post race report after each event.

First of all, congrats to the winners Spudweiser and Gatoradefan! To reply to Codrock real quick, you think (or thought) there's favoritism because the top painters finish at the top every week? Could it be they're just that good? The field was split in half based on skill, not popularity. It's like the Sprint Cup Series and Xfinity Series, not Sprint Cup Series A and Sprint Cup Series B. I see you didn't even submit a scorecard, so you probably shouldn't have complained there. To reply to what you said about my car, I know you have nothing against me. Thanks for seeing how good my sponsors looked. However, even a simple scheme like that has a ton of work put into it. Do you see the gradients? Do you see even the outlines have gradients? I felt that that scheme went best with my sponsor, so I went with it even if I figured it wouldn't be complex. Simple isn't always bad, and complex isn't always good. Anyway, sorry to see you drop out. I hope you continue to get better, because your Race 1 car was honestly one of your best. But I also think everyone pretty much finished where they should have this round. I hope there's no hard feelings between anyone this race. Let's move ahead to Race 2 |

Leadfoot Pays Tribute To A Fallen Racer
-Pittsburgh, PA
As a fan of all types of motor racing, Leadfoot has always been a big fan of the 24 Hours of Le Mans endurance race, held every year in Le Mans, France. In 2013, on the third lap Danish driver Allan Simonsen, of the No. 95 Gulf Aston Martin V12 Vantage GT3 car, lost control and struck the outside wall of the track. Unfortunatly, hours later, Allan passed away, his injuries the cause of death.
Now, almost two full years after the crash, Leadfoot will run the No. 97 Toyota Camrey in a Gulf livery, bearing similar design ques from that of Allan's GT3 racer, as a tribute to him. "It never a good thing to see a driver injured in any form of motorsport, and it's much worse to lose a life within it. As a fan of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, and Gulf racing cars, it only seemed fitting to design a tribute scheme for Allan."
Leadfoot will be unveiling the car at the second race of the 2015 Paint Booth Cup season at Bristol Motor Speedway.

I finally got around to updating the OP. Codrock has been removed, gatoradefan added, and the open/filled teams have been edited. That should make everything up to date.
