iRacing road rookies is a complete s-show. Let's not put our rose-tinted glasses on. I suffered through that experience like everyone else and learned that it was as much about taking personal responsibility for where I put my car as the over aggressive opponents.

iRacing at Class C and above is about mindset and smarter decisions people make after being beat into the ground by the incident point system, not the control method.

in iRacing road side, controller user is almost none. and they force only cockpit cam for everybody. No hood cam , no bumper cam.

so the player only focus on racecraft and clean racing.

I just had mazda mx5 race at laguna at 1000 DR sof, pretty clean and driver try to avoid contacts.

In GTS , it is absolute mess because less precision control by controller user. They are fast but how about braking in time ?

I think it is also decent to pull over when the leader has pitted a lap earlier than you and comes out of the pits right behind you. He is now on fresh tires and is clearly much faster than you even without them. Not only is it polite but it is probably better for your overall result to just let him by and drive your race rather then risk him taking you out.

While I might not actively pull over when another car catches me very quickly while I am giving my all, I certainly won't make it difficult for him. Why delay the inevitable and just increase the risk of a crash?

I will accept, a lapped driver is probably the exception to the rule. But in all honestly, the comment was in reference to giving up a position. Being lapped doesn't affect your position.

While we can beat this till we're blue in the face, the bottom line is if the guy you're racing doesn't care about their rating and you do, all you can do is bend over and take it. More so at the start when the guy behind you gets an artificial advantage, but it can happen at anytime. I've had the problem making my way through the pack as well. The only thing I can do is set a fast time for pole and choose a car that isn't bad on horsepower so I don't get punted on the way to turn 1.
