Yes but my blocking skills are rivalled only by the german rainmaster himself

once i know the tracks better and when the hand can hold up to the intense f1 regime ill see if i can improve my times without the training wheels

did you notice the bug with the very first race?

I came in third but when the results scoreboard came up im sure it showed me as first.

Also when i setup the 3 races it was as a championship (points etc) and yet after the third race where does it show total points accumulated? It doesnt afaik.

Also how do you change driving assists before actual racing???

Didn't notice this, took me a while to realise that it was giving points for the races!

i did see that, didn't give the final results, wanted to see if me or you had won, rp was miles behind, hehe!

On the first screen when you select ready to race its one of the options on the left hand side. I didn't see if first time so I brought the options menu up (by pressing start) in between two of the races and it let me change it in there, it was set to auto gears and it kept hitting the limiter all the time :mad:

The driving assists can be changed when you are in the Garage waiting for the race to start. Press start to see and change the options.

The final race standing were not bugs. You can get 10 second penalties during the race. So this affects the final race positions.

It didnt show the total points though, or perhaps i missed it?

Bizarrely enough after the 3rd race you just press continue to go race again.

Can't remember, It definitely showed them in between races, but not certain at the end.

if they did appear at the end then they must have been up and gone very quick as I didn't see them.

Just watching the quali, going to try and pick up some tips!

rp2000 · 25 Sep 2010 at 15:17

Anyone up for an online race at 7:30 pm? Only me and oldHTK (Surfer) so far.

beachBOYken · 25 Sep 2010 at 18:46

i will but i think you deleted me rp

i admit i have not been online for a few months until now

beachBOYken · 25 Sep 2010 at 20:50

good races tonight rp and oldHTK, theres some good racing to be had in this game.
only problem is if other players that join and deliberately smash you off the track

can online races be made private for just invites?
