Question for those who've been playing various driving games for sometime - do you find that you're now pretty much instantly competitive on any driving game?

Looking back on my illustrious video game driving career - countless F1 championships, an Indy 500 win, a couple of sports car championships, a Le Mans win, many British Touring Car Championships, several World Rally Championships and so on over the last 12 years or so, I now find that when I buy a new driving game I'm pretty much up to speed off the bat (except for that second hand version of Driving Emotion S for S%$t - what was the story with the steering in that thing?).

As an example - bought WRC for PS2 (do love a TLA!) - comfortably winning rallies at the 'normal' setting straight away.

Do other people find this? What are people's experiences with new driving games?

Congrats! (:

I'm probably midfield right away, but get very competetive within just a few races.

I have a weird talent when it comes to racing games... I am always up fron whenever I play one. The reason I feel in love with GT1 wayyyyy back when, is it was the first driving game that cars were bumping me, and I barly won a couple time... I love the feeling coming down the the straight away and winning by the nose of your car.

I used to play Daytona at a local arcade, and if you win you play again for free. I would stay race about 5 times, and give up my postion to someone else... (usually a girl... they like it when they don't have to pay)

Not to brag or anything, I am in no way as good as some members on this site (Mr. P. GVX) but I am better then anyone in my neihborhood, and thats all that matters!!
