Once again, being the idiot that I am, caused problems.
1. I really despise this track, no room for passing.
2. The collision penalty setting screwed me over big time, not my fault I couldn't Brok3n when he hit the wall.
3. Sorry Brok3n, I over shot the turn, I didn't me to take you out when we got to the final stump.
4. Each time the Division 1 guys race with the Division A guys keeps making me nervous, I feel like a disappointment every time I race.
5. I forgot to break in my Honda, so I was under powered too.
I'll take any penalties thrown at me, I need help when driving near others, I don't wanna cause any more problems.

Don't worry Booyaka, I make mistakes too.
If you want, you and me can have some practice overtaking each other.

If I get some time in Sunday or Monday, possibly. Got a lot of exams and catching up to do at school, today was the first time I've been able to practice for the race.

Don't feel bad Booyaka,we all make mistakes we feel bad about.But its not really a big deal.We learn from them.It wasnt on purpose and the expirenced guys know that.We all know it.
Once in a flex race I started up front in the second race,on the second or third turn I crashed and took out everybody.I thought ah man,their gonna be ticked.They weren't.

Booyaka! Hey I see you are having troubles around drivers that are able to overtake you, (basically pressure for you) well I've been in the same situation in a lot of races and psycho told me just drive your line and don't worry about who's in front of you or who's behind you. Just drive the car to the fastest you can.
When I was much slower I always followed some of the faster racers just to learn how to get faster on some tracks and a big thing I did I saved the replay after a practice race then I would watch the faster guys Lines and see how they got around the track quick.
Congrats to the winners last night, sorry I couldn't make it, I was working last night until midnight.

For starters this is a Beginner Series. For drivers to get used to online racing. There's a learning curve but seat time is the only way to get experience. Part of that is learning to drive with some rear pressure while maintaining focus. I know it's tough with someone right on your bumper but if you're in front it's up to them to make a clean pass. Personally I like to take it easy on reverse grid and allow the less experienced drivers to have some time running up front. Keep driving man, sounds like you're determined.

Quoted for truth.
When I'm racing, I personally won't mind a little bit of contact. Just as long as we both know its not intentional. How can you learn from mistakes if you don't make them? Also, since we are racing with strong draft, you gotta remember to brake earlier or you'll end up smashing into the back of people or running off track to avoid them.
I still get nervous when racing with these guys. Afraid ill take someone out. Heck, I hit scarecrow in the rear so much on Laguna seca that I should have bought him a drink first. He had a different braking style than I did and I didn't adjust to it.

How to join the Turtle Racing League - TYRO Racing Series
Step 1: Post your request to join along with your PSN ID in this thread. Also choose and include an unused (refer to drivers list) car and wheel color combination and car number. When you join as a beginner you will automatically be signed up for the Turtle Racing League - Enduro Racing Series Division A.

To join the lounge click on the COMMUNITY tab which is below GTLIFE and PROFILE on the GT Home Page and select the appropriate Turtle account, then click on the Coffee Cup, then click join.
Step 3: Purchase and break in your car(s) then change the oil. Do not tune them in any way. Races are "Tuning Prohibited" however, the "Tuning Prohibited" filter allows for changing brake balance, and engine limiter.

Or do a power restriction

Power restriction might make more sense, that way everyone at least has equal grip levels. It might be a nightmare for the beginners to try and pass cleanly on a car going so much slower through the turns as opposed to just a lower powered car (that would theoretically corner the same). I hope that makes sense.
