Ghosting really, really annoys me. It seems that others can always ghost rhough me, but I always seem to hit solid cars.

This was my first, and probably last, GT3 online race at the oval track. I was abut to be lapped, and did see them coming. although the guy, Dazzz903, went for a gap that wasn't there, I assumed he would ghost through me as that seems to be a sensible time to allow ghosting, but no, I ruined his race. Later on, he'd finished his race but I hadn't when I came up behind him again. I assumed I would ghost though him as that seems like another sensible time to allow ghosting, but no, he was as solid as I was to him earlier.




It just seems all a bit random and not very well thought out.

What driver class are you? (E, D or C)?
 
For me, this is probably the biggest deal breaker. Mixing contact and ghosting in the same race is just bewildering. I'm sure there's some rhyme and reason to it, but it sure isn't obvious and it's probably a good thing it isn't obvious or else people would probably exploit it big-time.

It should be one or the other. And personally, I have no interest in contact-less racing. That's basically just time trialing at that point, just with multiple laps. As a big motorsports fan, requiring real racecraft and racing skills are a huge part of the thrill for me.
