Likely most have a 2nd ID for open servers.  Papy open servers breed the
wrong attitude for online racing.  Over-aggressiveness, win at any cost, win
on the first lap, if I can't pass ya I'll wreck ya, etc etc.  After watching
a couple replays of our races I can prolly tell ya who runs a lot of opens.
Just watch a couple restarts at our last Dover, yikes.

Ya that would be me.  I guess I need to create an ID for RASCAR races
that would be more recognizable to the name I post under in RAS (oh,
and one that doesn't sound so stupid).

True, but since I am not in a league they are about my only option.
You can sometimes find a pretty clean, good SW race on the 4-10
servers.  Besides the over abundance of idiots the only other thing I
hate is trying to find a non SS to run.  Why are Dega and Daytona the
ONLY tracks that ever get run on the 6-10 servers?

It can***up your lpi but if you are a little selective and stick
to the 4-10 and 6-10 servers you can keep it from going completely in
the toilet.  I have a 53 lpi which isn't great but is not awful
either.

If you run open races, an lpi of 53 is amazing, actually.

Because those are the easiest tracks...?

Never argue with an idiot.  He brings you down to his level, then beats you

I have a 90 something lpi, but I only have a 2 rating(SS).  That's the only
division I even HAVE a rating in.  So, I couldn't even get INTO those races...
