and I have now discovered amazing WEB sites where I can download just about
everything (mods, patches, addons, cars, tracks, sounds,etc...). I race
against AI a fair bit (Nascar 2003, F1 2002, SPGT, TOCA Race Driver and the
amazing GTR 2002 which I just installed a few days ago - my wife hasn`t seen
me since...) but now that I have a great system, video card, etc. I want to
start racing other people online.
Is there a place where beginners can race each other? I don`t know or
understand yet all the car setups so I rarely go in the "garage" and tweak
my car. So I don`t want to race "pros" who, as a result of their skills
and tweakings, would pass me and lap me constantly: what is the fun in that
(unless your the guy doing the passing of course)?? I want to learn the car
physics and setups but this will take a while and right now, I would prefer
to race people that are about the same level as me. I tried online racing
way back when MTM2 was actually fun to race but the people I was racing were
so good that I could not imagine that they could do so well without cheating
somehow (looking back, perhaps they were!). I think that is what put me off
multiplayer mode until now. The more I am reading this group, the more I
see how fun it would be to join these races. I don`t really care what I
race (F1, GTR, etc...) so I just need to be pointed in the right direction
to a place where I can join races and have some clean fun...
