Agreed Trowa. Turn 1 on LSGP is a perfect example of this for me. The amount of times I've gone round the outside and made the move stick, works best on the opening lap. Other times if someone has a run on me down the start/finish straight and tries it up the inside, I will just take my normal braking point and let them go wide leaving me with plenty of space and a better line and drive out for the undercut. Simple.

I just attempted to play in a 16-member race and got pitted 3 times. This is definately an issue.

I just attempted to play in a 16-member race and got pitted 3 times. This is definately an issue. I got to be honest with you man. You are all over the road. Its impossible to know where you are going. Im sure this will sort itself out as you learn the racing lines but at the moment you are going bobbing and weaving a lot. Not sure if this is you attempting to block people but you make it impossible to pass cleanly and frankly you were slowing people down to a snails crawl by doing so. Blocking is an acceptable tactic when done right but what you were doing was either A) a lack of track knowledge thus explaining your erratic lines(which is fine, that will work itself out) or B) some insane blocking attempts that if it were not for me slowing down several times would have resulted in some spectacular crashes that would have been 100% your fault. In any case I still agree its a problem but I thought I would mention that to you bc several people commented on your bobbing and weaving. Also worth noting that when there is a significant skill gap between racers crashes tend to happen a lot more than usual. At least thats what Im noticing as of late. That and lag has a lot more to do with these crashes than I originally thought. You dont notice it until you notice it. Often times my car wont even touch another driver and they claim I pitted them and vice versa. Nothing can really be done about that :/

I was giving a friend a ride during a mission a couple of nights ago, and he asked me if I was crashing into everything on purpose. I wasn't crashing into anything. We were in the same car and having totally different experiences. He had been having connectivity issues earlier.

I haven't got lines together on alot of the NODO tracks yet, so obviously I'm not going to be winning any races against 16 crew members. That being said, I shouldn't be that hard to pass without slamming into the back of me at full speed. Almost everyone in the race were making very clean passes on me (since I had the misfortune of starting in 2nd), but it seemed as though a few people made no attempt to slow down as they ran into me. Could very well have been network-related, but frustrating nonetheless.

I've had experiences where I'll be trying to go into a corner on the outside of another racer, his car plows through like there wasn't a turn, knocking me off in the process, only to have his car teleport back to where he was from his POV. Its brutal.
