Hmm can we give a definition to defensively? Because I think it isn't used properly here...
When I have to lap someone, with 5 cars following closely to get my 1st position, and I have to pass a lapper, who is 2-3 secs slower than me, then yes, I expect him to slow down his pace, not stop, but noticeably slow down, or take the outside line in a turn, to give me the signal I have the ok to pass.
Now there are people that are very often BLOCKING me when they get a blue flag. This is stupid, and if by defensive driving you mean blocking, then I strongly advise you to reconsider. You're not going to make many friends, although you're going to get many kicks.
There is nothing more annoying then a relative newbie that you are lapping races you for position, rams you in the braking zone, and then justs says sorry. And I've had that happen many times. For him no biggie, for me race is ruined.
We have enough problems with blue flags as it is, let's not give more people the wrong impression, and have them think they are right too...
edit: As for those that have joined mid-race, I expect them to not obstruct you in ANY way during the race. They are just there to get warmed up, and not to race.
Hehe what I said two days ago...So many quality racers in one server. Or at least release patch X but keep the Bug testing servers! Passworded with a password announced on the forums
Yep, quite disgusting I believe...The vauxhall clearly was right in my opinion.
The way the bmw passed reminds me of the way many of the Fxos ''dive'' into the turn in the Silver and Gold Ctra servers, like you have no way of right to the apex, even if you're 2 car lengths in front of them.
I think this hasn't been mentioned yet, be easy on me if it has.
I think most of us have seen what happens when people forget about false starts.
Wouldn't it be good if cars where blocked till at least the red lights come out?
A false start happens in reality only milliseconds before the green light. Never 5 seconds before. If the cars where unlocked till say the last red light comes on, it would be much better and realistic, and the possible chaos on the field reduced.
