If Truck races fire, then Nationwide races normally fire. Unless the Nationwide cars are at some stupid track and the C class are at a 1.5 miler. ManicJason posted:
It should be also said that if you like NASCAR this is the best NASCAR game around. The other most popular series is the iRacing NASCAR series which runs in sync with the real-life schedule offering 50% races normally a half a dozen times a week. If you wanna sit down and race stock cars against 29 other dudes for two hours on a Saturday night this is the place to do it. Upside is if you can keep it clean you'll probably run caution free after all the idiots wreck on lap 2.

I got protested by one dude because I "ran bellow the white line and you can't do that and also I can't drive because I'm Asian and I don't own a car and don't race in trucks because I ruin it for the people who actually wan to race." Of course I was the guy with the blue stripes on my bumper but  edit: Obviously nothing came of it.

KingShibby posted:If you run below the white line going into a corner (aka Charlotte) and inevitably take out someone in the corner because you can't hold it below the line (it's impossible I know), that's not right. I was taken out during Star Mazda oval week at Charlotte by someone doing that. I was leading the race and some idiot thought he could pass me below the white line and I'd just give him room in the corner to pass me Man that sucks. No it wasn't that, an old timer ran over me on the front straight and then claimed "I was below the white line" or something. And I was like "Yes I was, because when I saw you were going to hit me I had to get out of the way, but you still hit me!" and then he was like "cornsarnit dang nabbit you you can't go beneath the cotton' pickin' white line" or whatever. It was one of those crazies you get in bottom split trucks when there are only two splits and you get lumped in with the weirdos.

oses posted:What do you guys do when people are lagging super hard? I've had three races in a row where someone is lagging unbearably bad to the point where this last race I was on the high side at Charlotte oval and somehow I got turned by someone who was on the low line. No contact on my screen, but of course a 4x and it spun me around. I wish I could protest these guys for having 900+ ping. How about checking your geo-privilege? Unless the guy is in the US or something and trying to play on a copper line I'd just chill, sometimes the servers group people in a way that shafts certain regions at certain times of day.

It's also cheaper because they recycle tracks a bunch. I do enjoy the B cars. A cars is where its more driving the car than racing the car if you know what I mean, and also particpation is less and if I'm going to drive A I'm going to drive the half-distance races on weekends and gain crazy SR. edit: Also when participation is high in trucks, you're either going to be winning or close enough to the front to learn something. Not like 1 race going official in A, with 5 aliens and 5 scrubs and you're in the middle. Also B is great for fooling with the setups in open.

Maybe it's because I'm older and remember when entry level poo poo was actual poo poo, instead these DF GTs and Thrustmaster 3D joysticks they make are pretty good for what you pay, all things considered.

simble posted:Yep. Car owns. Track owns. Everything owns. Yeah it's tough! But you'll get used to it. Just remember the saying "pass in the straights" and you'll be fine. Well, you pass other people in the straights and keep an eye in case you get dive bombed in the corners. Really, it's just about getting wheel time and knowing how other people think and make sure you can accommodate other people.

The best RutgersKev video is the one where he's racing at Kansas I think and explains how he was clerking for the judge that decided a case that resulted in there being two NASCAR races or something and it's actually indirectly his fault.

If you want to race Trucks, the hot tracks seem to be Texas, Vegas, Fontana, Bristol, Daytona etc. Ironically, in Trucks the 1.5ers are really great to race on and all race differently.

The B races are like 167 laps long at Texas. That's... not a race you want your team mate to wreck out on on lap 5... edit: Seem to be open setup too, which is good because they spread out more and even a tiny bit of setup knowledge will get you enough speed out of the box to leave the people using default in the dust. algebra testes fucked around with this message at 00:51 on Oct 28, 2014 |

No chance of changing to a car that is actually half decent on ovals? I seem to recall races conducted entirely under caution last time we tried this. edit: I mean, I'll be there regardless. algebra testes fucked around with this message at 05:18 on Nov 8, 2014 |

OhsH posted:whats the conversion ratio of oval race units to road race units these days? It was at lime rock, so that's pretty much the same thing right? It must have been the greatest moment in that guy's life, something like the six guys in front of him all fell off the track. At least I finished 2nd so I still ground out irating and safety rating. I think that's the hardest thing transitioning from Ovals to road courses - just hitting your spots lap after lap when there is no pressure. I've found on ovals there isn't enough time to go "gee... what a big lead..." and let your concentration lapse.

No what happens is a track is added to the Skippy season and stays "in rotation" for a couple of seasons, and after three or howmany seasons it's phased out for another. That means you're not constantly buying new tracks and the outlay each new season is minimal.
