Full withdrawal, definitely not a league I'm looking for, not any fun to do laps by myself, I get I'm slow but yea, not worth my attention to be in this league at this time, enjoy the rest of your season

Yeah, see I was gonna offer words of encouragement, but I decided to look at the Lobby B replay first to see if I could help in any way. Now after watching and looking at your inputs, I think you made the right decision. ARL ain't for you. Real talk.

During a race, you sometimes overtake and other times you're overtaken. Let it be.

Sorry I wasn’t able to join today, I will join next week with either a Lexus or an R8! Something came up last minute. Btw, if my average pace in Gr3 is about 3% off top ten(calculated over a few races) would I be too slow? I’m just looking for a league with slightly long races so I can practice my consistency in a real race setting and improve my strategy and race craft.

ive seen guys faster than me come and go and ive seen slower guys than me come and go. I think anybody here would welcome anyone as long as you’re trying your best and being honest with yourself. ‘Respect is earned and in the process of earning has to be given’ (theres my deep quote of the day) - which i think was the downfall of a fellow that just recently dropped out. Improving racecraft’ is defiantly a trait i think we all strive for. I for one am still working on all the above. Come out and see how you do.

I don't think there is a "too slow" here in this league unless you drive 25mph. Lol.

You should be fine. The best part about not being the fastest is you always get faster. See you next week.

I think here there are enough drivers you will always have someone you can race with and somewhere to aim at. As said by others there isn’t a too slow as long as you race clean

Watch a replay and look for the differences between your inputs, driving line, braking points, etc. If you're struggling to find differences, ask anyone and they'll let you know. That and some practice and that 3% will melt away like your drowsiness after a fresh cup of delicious Black Rifle Coffee. ;-)

Dude, I suck at this game. But I still enjoy this group. Everyone here will offer help and advice. Heck, I went a lap down last night. At least you stayed on the same lap as the leaders. I had hoped that the season finale at Dragon Trail was a turning point, but these first two races have put me back in my place. But I'll still show up. Keep at it my friend. Hope to see you again.

In average, I'm 4 seconds off the leaders pace. You'll be fine. LOL
 
After an....interesting....evening of racing, I log back to the main screen. The screen goes black...

"Oh yeah! Daily prize car!"

I see the four silhouettes start to rotate. Spinning. Spinning. I start to recognize the shapes...

"That's a Ferrari 330 P4!"
"That's a Ferrari 250 GTO!"
"That's a Jaguar D-type!"
"That's some random old Golf"

Spinning. Spinning.

The spinning is slowing.

...then suddenly it happens!

"Congratulations Scarecrow937!!!!! You are the proud owner of a new...

...1983 Volkswagen Golf I GTI."


I'm thoroughly whelmed...

You couldn’t be more professional and adult with this statement.

from what I have heard i don’t think ANY league is for you with your current attitude on track. Trying to block and turning into others on track isnt racing it’s wreckfest. NO CLEAN LEAGUE ON GTPlanet will put up with this kind of driving. As mentioned above, this group gladly tries to help each other out any way they can. Quite honestly this could be the TIGHTEST group on GTPlanet when it comes to a community. Fun isn’t wrecking people. It’s not blocking and running people off line. FUN IS THE SATISFACTION THAT I PASSED THAT GUY CLEAN. FUN IS RUNNING SIDE BY SIDE WITH SOMEONE AND NOT TOUCHING. FUN IS OUT DRIVING SOMEONE.

IF YOU CANT MAKE IT HERE IN ARL, most likely you will not make it in ANY league for that matter.
I wish you the best and hopefully you can grow up a little bit and come back a better person.
