Quote from birder :By the way, we were 1 and 2 in the 2 races i had with you yesterday on CD2. (You won them both)

They were both good races, but i would make it clear you are to fast to race on CD1 and should only use CD2

Simply go onto CD1 and ask the faster drivers to move over, most will do.

Yeah they were good races, and you are a good driver.

But at this point, rather than limit myself to CD2 and race against only a handful of drivers, I will try the other non-CD servers to see what its like.

I look forward to any improvements coming to CD and hope to race again in your servers, hopefully under better conditions soon!

Quote from birder :Its not the servers fault or the fact there was no admins, its the fact that CD servers offer full grids and this attracts so many drivers who have little or no race craft.

I went on CD1 yesterday and kicked 4 and banned 3 but its a full time job and after all you can vote.

Come on, if you are fast enought fill up CD2 rather than having a go at us (again).

Not having a go at you guys at all, in fact thanks for running the CD servers, you guys are great, but just saying at this point I may give up on the CD servers because the situation is not managable. You are right, being Admin is a full-time job and I cant imgine you can deal with 30+ noobs all the time. I would be happy to help in voting to ban/kick idiots (like I used to do in the old days), but not when theres 30 of them and 1 of me. I need more experienced drivers on my side, and these are sorely lacking on CD1 most of the time.
The problem with CD1 and CD2

I have been racing GTR's on Astion National for a couple of years. Yesterday, I was on CD2 racing with some of the regulars and it was great, BUT there were only 5 of us. I left CD2 to to try CD1, sure enough there were 30 racers there. BUT the "racing" was terrible, this server has become an american demolition derby most of the time. The problem is there are too few quick and clean drivers on that server, there are no admins (not last night anyway), and as a result chaos reigns. Bumping your opponents off the track to stay ahead is the norm it seems....(while winning on CD2 I struggled to finish 7th on CD1 because there wasnt a single lap where I wasnt either bumped off the track or had to take avoiding action due to other drivers' crashes).

Splitting the CD1 and CD2 drivers has turned CD2 into a lonely place and CD1 into a nightmare, as a result I struggle to find good racing. Wouldnt it be better to remove the restricitions to bunch up the good drivers with the bad ones, that way the experienced drivers can at least somewhat "police" the situation and ban/kick idiots if need be? Thats the way it used to be before CD2 became licensed, I remember it was fun, plenty of drivers, the occasional idiot who would get banned sooner or later.

Or is it just me?

Quote from MaximUK :Ugly, unforgiving and laggy. Those are the reasons to use it.

Shame it is still a bit slow though.

Maxim

agreed. I also drive it to be different. Hate seeing a full field of FZR's.......

10 KG less has improved my lap time by 0.3s on AS3 so far.....

Im an XRR driver but it can be really depressing out there knowing you cant realisticallly aim for the win against 20 other FZR and FXR drivers.

I know how to drive the FZR too and Im about 1 sec. quicker with that car compared to the XRR (on AS3), but it simply isnt as challenging to drive, so less fun for me.

Please remove the ballast from the XRR to even things out a bit more!
