Sim Racers 4 Life - Fun Event - Classic F3s at Belgium
#22
I think the main problem is that people must take it with calm in the back at the start. We are not racing for money or glory, just for fun.

I quote these premises Marcel wrote some time ago and can be found at the links in the bottom of every race announcement:
Quote:Practice the Other Lines Before You Have to Use Them.
Very important when race starts, it's very common that you can find yourself trapped in the dirty line of the first corners.
Also a key when trying to overtake other cars.
Everybody should take the effort to practice a few laps driving all corners in different lines as if they had another car side by side.

Quote:You need to leave room simply if you have reason to believe someone might be beside you.
That's a key for race starts. It's better to lose a couple of places than ending in a crash.

Quote:Lifting to get out of trouble is very often a safe bet. You'll be surprised at how many 'certain crash' situations you can actually drive away from if you would only lift your foot off the accelerator.
That's something I always do if I'm not starting in the front row. Lift before the braking zone for safety and then brake when I see the cars ahead are breaking. That gives you a lof of safety for turn approach and still you almost don't increase at all the gap with the cars ahead.
