Rivalry with Dan Thorn

Denying Dan a first victory in 4zaMC
One of a few collisions in Season 4
Separated by 0.01 at Infineon
Sideo by Sideo was a regular occurrence in the HGTM series

The Dan Thorn/TommyB rivalry first appeared during Round 11 of the 4za Motorsport Championship. After a great start Tommy was leading comfortably while the pack behind jostled for position. After several laps Bookoi and Dan Thorn broke away from the pack and began to hunt down Tommy for the lead. The final two laps saw Dan swarming all over the back of the Citroen C1 but failing to get passed, despite a few close attempts. As they crossed the line, the gap was +0.172, the closest 1-2 finish in RRR history.

The two drivers started Season 4 HGTM as team mates at Indy Alfa. The rivalry kicked off instantly at the first race in Nurburgring, where the duo ignored team orders and had an epic battle, passing and re-passing for several laps.[1]

Contact was made several times in the season, most notably at Suzuka when the both were the centre of a huge first lap incident. During the mid point of the season the two drivers were locked in an epic battle, separated by a single point but this was not to last, due to Tommy missing several races.

Round 17 and 18 at Infineon saw the drivers run comedic bum decals on their cars as well as tributes to their favourite drivers Jarno Pooli and Rubens Bummismello. During the race another epic battle occurred, on the final corner Tommy missed a gear which resulted in Dan passing on the line, a gap of just one hundredth of a second. [2]] In the second race they were battling again, this time another incident, with Dan controversially overtaking Tommy in the pitlane.[3]

The final race at Hockenheim saw them battle again behind The Indypendables team mate Icthyes.[4] At the end of the race Tommy and Dan were close behind FlavouryRug and a first Forza podium for The Indypendables was in site, unfortunately neither could pass.

MEMES brought more of the same
It took them less than a few metres to end up Sideo by Sideo in the The Inaugural Cruddy 125

Season 5 saw both drivers race for their independent teams. The rivalry began almost instantly when in the final race of the first event, Dan and Tommy had some Sideo by Sideo action. Much like HGTM though, this ended in a crash after Tommy raped Dan's car.

The The Inaugural Cruddy 125 event looked set for another duel between the two. Less than a few metres into the race, they were already side by side. Unfortunately this battle was cut short as both driver's disconnected from the race.

Round 5 saw them do battle in the Renault 5's. Both races saw epic battles with Dan using his usual powersliding technique. Despite Dan being the much more competitive out of the two, it was Tommy who took a victory, despite secretly wanting to see Dan win his first race more. The next round of MEMES saw Dan take his first win, Tommy finished second.

Liveries

Tommy spends the majority of time painting his cars instead of racing them. His cars are frequently Orange and Green with the occasional special Zelda livery for the Japanese races.
