Thanks for the replys. I guess I will just get used to not looking out the rear windows. Maybe they will make it more realistic sometime. And the trackir really only takes about a half hour to master, and considering ive had it for 4 years I think I am doing ok . Thanks

So I have track ir pretty much just so I can see the other cars around me. The only problem I have is is will only let me look 90 degrees left or right... I can not look over my shoulder with is a real issue. Can anyone tell me how to let it look more than 90 degrees? Thanks

Thanks alot for all of the help, and explaining everything to me so well Dark Elite. I have read all of the rules before and check the ctra page alot . I am becomming addicted I just wanted to make sure I have the correct ideology of the rules because this seems to be overall a respectful community.

Thanks for the heads up johhnyfx I actually had the xfg clicked above the server list, so I was only seeing 50 or so available servers.

Thanks for the info GreyBull i will for sure check out that server now that I can see it

A new guy with a couple questions

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
