It takes a lot of selfcontrol to not re-enter the track too early. I mean, you're losing precious placements right! I think a lot of drivers suffer from this, including myself as well.

My first time racing with crew members was back when nodo2 was still around, I considered myself a good driver but when I raced with them it was back to reality for me  |

I honestly can't remember my first time racing with NODO. That was over a year ago and when I first joined! I do remember doing quite poorly, though. I fondly remember it being like the first day of school: I was scared, overwhelmed, nervous, and anxious to try and fit in and be a good racer. I also remember it being like whenever I first lost my virginity: I was so excited that I went way too fast and crashed into a wall. Well, not exactly like that but you get the point! Little did I know that my first time racing with Nonchalant Dominance would change me forever and restore a bit of my faith in the human race and make me realize that there actually are still good people in this world.

The earliest race that I remember being a part of was on LSGP drag strip. It was part of a 5 race playlist that I was told to join "to see if I had what took to be in NoDo." I finished nearly last in all 5 races.
Fast forward about a week or two later, I was in my first ever endurance race. It was Round 1 of the CCEC, racing Sultans on Hit The Apex. I won. That was the turning point for me, as ever since the first playlist, I hadn't been enjoying life in NoDo. After the race on Hit The Apex, I checked the forums and saw that most of the people here had a much better attitude than the first person I'd ran into as a NoDo member, and that's when I decided to stay here.

Bad experience, maybe that words can describe first time I was racing as a NoDo member with NoDo members. Joining PL, 8 tracks was made by the host and its very narrow tracks with a lot of props there's no way to play that tracks on contact mode. After that I only joining tracks I familiar with and the result is DNF almost on every races but I learned a lot after I join NoDo Skype Chat (it's Slack now) no more stupid narrow tracks and also no more "random" NoDo members who played dirty races, but still I never finished as a winner after joining NoDo  clean race way much important for me than winning the races. That's why I join this crew  |

To put it simply, racing has become a lot more enjoyable since joining NoDo a few weeks ago. I just wish I joined sooner.

My first time was a very very long time ago, and I barely remember it, I remember I was in NoDo2 and it was on the first track I ever made, and I remember after I asked how my track was and I told them they were insanely good.... and then I never ever saw them again, but they were much better than me, mostly cause at that time I didn't even know about racing lines, I also raced all non contact cause I was so so SO afraid of taking someone out and over reacting and being cute, thinking I was gonna be kicked or really anger someone >~< BAKA

That was your 1st race? Looks downright intimidating hahaha! OMG IT WAS! This was actually my second big lobby race i believe... The first one was with muscle cars, maybe a week prior. I think i finished 11/26 in that first race and i almost crapped myself for not DNFing, not hitting someone else, and not making a total ass out of myself. This van one though..... This one was special because i made a lot of friends afterwards. I was wayyyy too nervous to race with Broughy when i joined this crew. I seriously did not want to embarrass myself. Everyone i met in NoDo was so nice and welcoming. I never expected so many valuable friendships and genuine respect to come out of Grand Theft Auto online. Nothing but fond memories here |

If I remember correctly, it was a long time ago, it was with a silly Canadian ( strikeslip), and we had a blast. It's been amazing since the start.  |

Where is he now? Anyway I thought I was a good gta racer. I got smoked. Bad loser kept waiting for me and I just thought well I didn't expect this. A week later I did my first event, the kuruma endurance. I finished 2nd Twilicane won the race, this was the first time I raced with twili too. Thanks to bad loser for showing me how to be a good nodo racer |
