It seemed pretty easy to get people to join last night - ended up with at least half a dozen of us with the lobbies otherwise full of randoms. Mostly not that badly behaved, and the ones who were kept getting kicked. The only shame was Furiomaster or whatever his name was, being a bit too quick and winning most of them!

Was good again last night, and the pay outs were still good in the middle of the pack.

Really need to sort myself out a tuned race car and muscle car.

TBH I don't mind the slipstream and catch up when I'm racing randoms, makes it easier to catch back up when someone inevitably blocks the track or rams you while driving the wrong way.

Some good racing with randomers last night, the sultan held its own in some of the supers races (such a boring class) on tighter circuits.

Yeh, I think Furiomaster owes us a beer!

beer

I was disappointed with my races on Trench II normally do quite well on that one, but I kept getting punted early on.... mad

A win and a few top 3 finishes got some good money though...

I never liked racing supers on the normal races but some of my favourite stunt tracks are super ones. Vespucci, Downtown Loop and Canyon Crossing are all great. Even had some variety in the cars in the racing I was doing last night.

That one down Chilliad and back up again was fantastic in the ETR1 - it had the grip to maintain speed round the curves.

It does my head in, you get out in front and its like the hand brake is on, then they just catch you up again. Its like having your hands tied

I've noticed (now that I occasionally win races laugh ) that catch up seems to affect some cars worse than others. The RE-7B is barely affected while the Elegy and Tropos seem to stop dead if they get to the front.

Yeh, its a pretty good track... although, twice now idiots have been blocking the bit where it narrows right down... (but it doesn't take long to drive around to the other route... )

its almost worthwhile for DJ just to troll them ... (or is he already ?? hehe )

in other news, had an odd race earlier, which i think JoyRider was spectating on... Im sure there were 2 races on the same track !? with twice the number of cars, i had about 6 or so cars in front of me but finished 2nd! it was very weird... i have a video of it, there must've been 30+ on the same track!

I've had something similar happen before, when someone has disconnected just as the race starts, I can still see them, but they're not 'in' the race

This is my favorite response so far ' Okay mate, the way you talk in this thread bothers me, but since you are the OP, I'll show myself out.

fk me if a fairly level headed post bothers you how the fk are you going to cope when you actually your bedroom.
