LOL. Definitely not. You can have a great time in the GOOD cruising rooms. With the correct map (well made Mt. Aso, Toscana ou Cote Dazur) and some restrictions & rules for realism and you can have a blast just cruising by and speeding in the right sections, keeping on your lane is a challenge sometimes.
Cruising is also pretty kool when you have 8-9 classics and a tank car just getting in the way of the noob veyron, x2010-11 draggers that somehow seem to pile up in any room that is on a track with a long straight. I do enjoy a good drag so my AM Vette is always ready for a run or a kickdown race. (kickdown- while cruising in a higher than normal gear dropping into a lower gear and gunning it to drag from a cruising situation.)
