LOL, it's pretty easy to tell from the get go who the over aggressive and or less experienced ones are as opposed to the more experienced racers, those who have probably had the game longer and all.
The new or overly aggessive ones go into that first turn balls out with very little brakin and usually cause a major pile up along with makin someones car look like it should be headin for the body shop then and there LOL

This game with road courses is a game of patience IMO the way these typs of cars (DTM's and V-8's) race is in real life and if approached that way the game is awesome, but when ya only 3 to 5 laps each time the mentality is to get out in front and lead.
That's why the way we've been experimentin with the longer races to me is very interesting, it puts some strategy into it, we just need more racers, just like we need more posters here LOL
Yeah, you just can't run balls out with this game. The damage feature just won't let you. But we all did it in the beginning, just having the mindset that we had to hurry up and go. It's real hard to make yourself slow down in a race situation, but once you change that mentality, man these courses are a blast, expecially with that wheel in your hands.

TOCA 2 = best racing game I've played so far and I've played a bunch of them.
