Naming and shaming is against crew guidelines. Report to a commissioner if you have a problem with someone.

This is a big gripe of mine, not only because it shows immaturity but also disrespect for your fellow racers. By quitting your essentially saying you can't be bothered to race with whoever it is. I completely agree with driftin saying that being near the back is a chance to learn, hell you might even end up in a decent battle with someone.
One thing that annoys me more than anything about people quitting mid race is the fact the don't realise their car stays and starts driving around like a normal NPC car. Its ruined a few races for me finding these left cars driving around and I wish people would realise, have a bit respect and pull their cars over on a bit of road away from the track before they quit so it doesn't happen.

Has anyone one been nudged of the track by their own crew but never got the position back? All the time. What usually happens is they don't hit you on their screen, so when you go off it looks to them as though it were your fault. I find that it is hard to blame them when no contacts was made from their point of view, but it is still expected of crew members to give spots back in the event of a crash. |

I'm going to tell you guys a little story...
It's written by me
Experienced by me
Told by me
About me...
And a little bit of beauty.
I remember seeing Broughy's racing videos, and I always thought it looked so fun to race with skilful opponents. I was also a terrible racer (in caps).
So I joined the crew, with my eyes set on the horizon of improvement. As you probably guessed, I got squashed like a tasty fruit salad.
I eventually ended up quitting after losing race after race against opponents much more skilful than me. I stayed away from racing for a while.
But a few days later, one of my friends invited me to a race. I reluctantly accepted, and HOLY SHIT I WAS SUDDENLY ON A LEVEL SO FAR ABOVE EVERYONE ELSE, I STRAIGHT UP SHOUTED: "HOW AM I AMAZING!!"

How did you suddenly become amazing? Was there a montage of some sort? Everyone loves a montage! |

Same boat as driftin, I'm often last (or close to last), but always try to find better lines and improve my own laptimes. Raging never gives you any chance to improve. ^^^^THIS^^^^ |

Yeah, if you can't see anyone or know you're gonna be out done just go in to practice mode.
Recently I've been lagging a little out, one tiime recently was just before the last checkpoint with me in the lead (words exited my mouth, they can't be repeated)
I've gotten into non-contact racing recently, not because I like it more than the regular style, but merely so my invisible force-field that surrounds my car stops nudging my rivals away when I enter a corner.
I'm about a car-width away and they still spin off or start going into a skid. It's really disheartening to feel I have to go ghost racing others when I could be really racing them instead.
