Well my Account is almost complete (1000+Cars, 1800 paints, 100 Horns and almost all Suits) but this leads me to following situation/question:

Is it better to create a new Account for online racing ??

Because I am competing in two series and the first races where good, connectionwise.
But the last 2 weeks my Internet gets lots of connection issues (I delete the cache frequently).
Is it because my gamesave is too "big" ??

Thanks for your answers and/or self-reports.
 
I know I will be starting from 0 but the new NASCAR Seasonals don´t need a NASCAR to race it => now it´s super easy to get to major money :D
Furthermore I could gift cars to the second account ;)

But my quetion was: Big gamesave = Connection issues (although PS3 says my connection is "perfect") ?

Or put cars online so you can use them on new account that's what I do.
 
I doubt your game save will cause connection issues. A large game save may affect load times, but connection issues would be traced to your internet provider, your router, and the PSN. Keep the save so you can use all your cars.

Agreed
 
I think it's more like loading issues. Large file = longer load time. But once ur Ina car racing it shouldn't effect ur connection. Should it?
 
^this was my way of thinking.

Well I started yesterday with a new Account (Chromeline Cars plus buying a Corsa with 4k km).
Wow loadingtimes are alomost gone (ok they are still long but you think they are gone xD).
Did the 4 NASCAR-Races => A-spec lvl 27 O_o and a FGT in all white :D

Well I think it´s better but maybe I have to do more testing (just did a fast 2h shuffle with many different "countries" and I loaded almost the fastest)
 
Clear your cache. Trust me. You won't have to use an alternate account.
 
Hmm. That makes me wonder. Have you cleared it from your PS3 internet browser?
 
Yesterday was my "Answer-day".
I reseted my router, cleared the Cache of the PS3-Browser, cleared the cache ingame.
After that I restarted my PS3.
Raced a couple of a-spec races and seasonals (warming up) and tried to go online. (Base should be perfect)
=> long loading times and others said I would lagg respectively load all the time (the bar under your name is "moving")

OK thought it´s my router etc.
Tried my new account directly after the main account
=> Perfect online racing and my loading times are almost the fastest (Track change and my bar was one of the first not moving)

=> If I race online I´ll take my 2nd Account.


So my result is: Try a 2nd account if you have some issues in lagging or if you get disconnected from the servers (although your connection is good)
