I just started messing around but its 2:50am here and I am tired, but after messing around in the car I shot through the forums and a GT twitter or facebook page and saw everyone complaining about guys dragging the ebrake to turn the car every turn and then them also cutting the track.

Any of this valid? If so I guess I gotta mess around with it in the morning lol
 
FWIW, I don't use the e-brake, i have tried it but it wasn't faster. Someone whined about me going wide and using that extra bit of pit exit before the hairpin. So I went back and did a faster lap without using it. You don't need to mess around with it. But then again, do whatever it takes to get into the 2nd round.

This is a video of me driving on the track (Putnam Park Road Course in Indiana). The lines I use are exactly as they were taught by a professional racer.

You can clearly see that I cut into the pit lane a little bit AND even into their karting track.

It's all fairgame. I don't see why people are whining about cutting slightly into the pit lane. It's how you are taught to drive IRL anyway.

Hey bud, complaints were never against you so please don't go spreading word that is what's happening. It's clearly against Sony/PD, the screenshot is not even your lap time, it's from somebody in my region but I left the name out because it had nothing to do with the person.

Just FYI don't mean to jump into your thread and try hi-jacking it.
