Post your best SRL WTF and WTH moments.
Was victory ripped from your grasp?
Did 2st cross the line 20 seconds before 2nd place despite being behind the whole race?
Let me set the scene for me own WTF moment
PIcture it, you are three gates from victory, not one obstical in the way, you are in a fierce battle with 2nd place to keep the lead and take the flag.
THREE flags to go, you hit the flag side by side with 2nd place.
TWO flags to go, 2nd place missed the flag and you pull ahead, certain in your victory
Almost at the last flag before the finish line...... no way 2nd can catch you if you hit that flag
2nd place tears past you as if you were going backwards, ignores the last flag and smashed the finish line almost a second ahead
Bug, Glitch, Exploit, Cheat?
Who knows, but bloody annoying!!!

Infinite Descent. I was desperately clinging onto third place with my veteran's sparrow against all the other noticeably superior SRL sparrows. I went off the jump by the floating Skiff, did a side boost just before I landed so I could hurl myself through a boost gate. That was when the physics went "-blam!- you and your hopes and especially your dreams" and I watched as my sparrow went into a wild corkscrew balanced on its nose as everyone else roared past me, assuring my resounding defeat. I needed one more 1-3rd place to complete my class A license. Fuuuuuuuuuuuu
