The timing for this is bad for me, but I think I may try to start running similar, semi-daily race playlists. I need to figure out a consistently good start time, probably in the 7-8 pm EDT/11-midnight UTC range. I am still looking to get this series going soon, probably last week May or first week June and probably running on Friday for PC (rather than Wednesday): All Stock Car SeriesBeing in the Americas and working durring that 5pm UTC time, also doesn't work for me. I was almost thinking it would be kind of cool to start another group using the same playlist at the 12:00-1:00 am UTC time you mentioned for those of us over here. I would offer to host and invite, but I'm sure I won't be able to make lots of nights.

LOL, after getting in some races with you guys today, I think I realized I need to go back to the Kiddy pool for a while and learn to swim. LOL, need to get back to some random lobbies to beat.
Ouch.

Ouch. I've noticed just driving with the NoDo crew makes you better fast. You quickly hit a glass ceiling racing pubs. But when you're racing NoDo you find better lines and break-points and take racing a bit more serious; which makes you a faster driver. So if my advice is worth a nickel: keep racing with us and you'll be able to match the NoDo pace before you realise it.

I'm a mobile roadblock -term shamelessly stolen from method0ne - myself, but you have to keep trying in order to get better. Practice makes (you get a little closer to) perfect You'll seldomly find people with NoDo pace in random lobbies. Ofcourse, to take a break, it can be fun going back to random races, but allthough the win can be a morale boost, you'll never get on pace with NoDo's by staying in random races. Finishing last is 1st from the bottom

honestly, theres nothing i could care less about, than winning a race when playing with the crew.
its supposed to be fun, and also to practice/improve. you'll gain so much more if you're racing behind someone who's quicker than you, and try to take his lines and find your own lines.
i switched from keyboard to controller 2 days ago, and i DNF a couple of races. maybe i would've made some better positions in random lobbies, but for me the environment is > placement.

LOL, I DNFed most of those races last night. Only problem was I was no where near the pace, so as for observing lines and things, I was not able to yet. Of course I was running all stock cars too, so need to get to work on my garage now that I have a couple of them ready to fill up.
Also, it appears I need to win some more races to be able to unlock the custom car upgrades too. So I'll be doing some of that for sure.
It was cool to get in a race with some of you though. I didn't know if you were taking it easy for me on that one track where I had the lead for all of 20 seconds then decided to completely miss track point because I cut the corner to hard. I probably would have messed up in another turn or two anyway, I was pushing pretty hard knowing I was holding the whole field up right behind me.

I just want to say I really like your attitude and what you are trying to do with this thread. This is exactly what we want to see from members of the crew. Keep doing what you are doing man and good things will come to you both in the crew and in life.
