I would like to extend my warmest thoughts towards the members of the shift forum and say thank you for a great place to hang out. For someone like me who is a craven motor head who is without the means to express himself by doing what I love to do in the real world at this time I am truly grateful to have found this outlet. Someday when I get back on my feet and have the means to ounce again throw thousands of dollars towards the sport of auto racing with the microscopic chance of having someone pay me to do it for a living, thank you.
The effort that is made to give this place the feel of real racing has to be respected and constantly reinforced so that the real understanding of why we go fast is appreciated and understood. Sure winning is fun but driving next to someone, both of you neck and neck going into a turn only to have one pull it off successfully without wrecking the guy next to you is what it is all about. My wish to everyone who wants to have success with the art of flying iron is to think before you dive in deep and hold your breath because you could pull off a great pass or ruin someone’s race.
I don’t know if other people look at racing like I do but I think there is nothing more enjoyable then hanging around behind someone, filling up there mirror, and playing mind games with them while you’re setting them up for the pass and pulling it off ( it also makes a great replay video for YOUTUBE ). That is what I think it’s all about. Just lining up behind someone for the punt and giving them the chrome horn in the kester doesn’t take much talent at all.
Speed is like something that you acquire gracefully not just something that is just forced on other people by the will of another. Everyone who I have ever known that just set the track on fire made it look like they were so smooth and effortless in the way they went about it. Clean racing and a little patience goes a long way to making a racer that everyone wants to race with. The things that I learn here will be the tricks that I use to give me that advantages I need in the future.
So let’s all grow together and show the world that cyber racing is real racing. For the few fortunate ones that can use their experience here in the real world, they might be able to able give the answer the question “where’d you come from?” It might just sound like “GT Planet”.
