The shadow realm is the unfortunate demise of the everyday sim racer.
Anyone can be sent to the shadow realm, this is often the result of coming up against a dirty driver that likes to
ram other drivers, cut corners, and/or seek unwarranted
revenge through uncontained frustration.
Likewise, anyone can send another to the shadow realm, sometimes sending someone to the shadow realm is approved without wider scrutiny, even encouraged, such as wiping out a dirty driver.
What'
s the most embarrassing however, is sending yourself to the shadow realm. This is often achieved by unsuccessfully navigating tight chicanes such as "The Chicane Of
Death" in Gran Turismo 6, or a simple lack of concentration through a difficult part of the
track.
Barry R is a close relative of the shadow realm.
You know what? I've had enough of this dirty driver, time to
send him into the shadow realm. *PIT manoeuvres him into the
wall*
Unfortunately, that German slammed right into me into
Turn 1, and unfortunately, I have yet again met my old friend, the shadow realm.
For fuck's sake. I've sent myself into the shadow realm.
