Its in driver options before the start of the race, where you can adjust traction control etc. One of the options is to turn on grip assistance, its for beginners

Decided last night to finally do/get gold on the S-Class licence, just finished doing that and the 2 advanced karting races, nice easy 238k credits for the karting, and a couple of nice cars for the licence 
Now to see if I can't finish the amateur series at last

Sod the amateur series (still need a decent old 'supercar' for the last races) so just did the AMG Advanced special event, 16,600 XP and 91k credits (assuming gold) for each of the 5 stages and it's great fun, the 54 300SL in the wet \o/
Thats what im currently on, found the dry runs pretty easy. this is abit more challenging.
Yeah, quite tricky to force yourself to brake so early/be so gentle on the throttle to avoid locking up or spinning the wheels, once you fully get into driving like a granny mode it gets semi-easy, got gold on the last one by >10 seconds on my first attempt, and that included 2 cars getting badly in my way...

I'm currently only doing B-Spec races and licenses as I'm getting a wheel tomorrow.
This weathers driving me nuts, the game was posted off the net to me 5 days ago and still don't have it.
Yesterday I called our local sorting office to enquire as to the whereabouts of a number items we are expecting in the post.
I was told that Tuesday, Wednesday and yesterday were no go days for the posties.
I drove to our village sorting office this am, less than half a mile - I had to walk the last 20 foot on snow free tarmac
.. Collected a weeks worth of mail.

/Spoilers off
Same track, much faster, I'm in 1st place and I notice a car to my right, parked up with smoke coming out of the bonnet. I'm all WTF is that ?
I finished in 5th
Turns out I went the wrong way and did an extra half lap because of the massive distraction
I only just avoided THAT to finish 2nd in teh Kubelwagen race

I found that pretty easy. Instead of bouncing off the limiter, ease right off the gas and try to hold it at max speed, you can gain a fair bit on the others.

I didn't know you were able to just go to the sorting office and collect it all, that sounds an idea lol. It's not just items via post im waiting for it's also courier deliverys. Nightmare .
I kept having trouble with connecting to server's yesterday evening. Earlier in the day I was on a server for four hours with no trouble, but I tried connecting to loads of servers in the evening and kept getting a '771' error. Something to do with my type of network not being compatible with the hosts network or something even though nothing to do with my network had changed since earlier in the day.
I just put it down to a high volume of players online and left it.
