For some reason, TOCA 2 seems like the first road course game or maybe sim game for alot of people. You can tell pretty quick who's new by how hot they run into the corners. Don't mean to say that's a bad thing (we all have to start somewhere), but TOCA 2 is definitley a good "starter" game for people wanting to learn how to race road courses. And there are also alot of really good racers out there, don't get me wrong.

I know for me personally, as a NASCAR fan, it's opened my eyes up pretty good. I still love NASCAR first, but these road courses are so much fun to drive.
Yep, it was a blast, we had some good races with a lot of good bumper to bumper racin.

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
