First I would like to say hello
I have just recently got back into s2. I believe i previously played in 2005 and never really got into it because of life. I have a couple of questions that I was hoping you could help me out with. I apologize if this should go in the beginners forum but I think it might belong here.
First. I can only see CTRA race 1 in my ingame browser. I have been playing now for about 3 weeks and I have never seen another ctra server. I have read through all of the server names but don't notice the others if they are there.
Second. I am not the fastest driver, but I do run within a few of seconds of the wr on most tracks. Because of this fact I try my best to not ruin anyone elses race. I think I may drive to unagressive though. Anyway my question is, sometimes a really agressive driver will "push" me out of their way. When I get lucky and they don't wreck me I can usually get back on speed fairly quickly, however the poeple following the person that "pushed" me seem to always push me out of the way as well even if I am only going 1 mph slower, which makes me hit my brakes or lay off the accelerator because I don't want to cause a wreck. Sometimes I lose 4 or 5 places because of this, also people almost always try to outbrake me in corners and use my car to slow themselves down. Is this just how it is?
Third. I would like some clarification on the passing rule as I must be doing it wrong. When I am in front of someone and they get the nose of their car to the back of my driver door and we are approaching a corner I either brake a little early or lay of the throttle just enough to give them the room to pass. However I almost never get the same kind of respect and people often cut me into the corner. Do I need to start "pushing" people of of the way, am I doing something wrong? Please clarify.
And as a new guy I would like to say that the ctra system seems like a really cool idea. I very much enjoy racing on your servers and overall have a good time minus these few frustrations. Thanks
