I've hit a wall in the Poconos. I am trying to get the first badge which requires winning in the Poconos. I have spent quite a bit of time practicing the track trying to figure out how to pick up some speed. The best I can come up with qualifies me for the back of the pack even on easy. Even if I ...

I have been through all of the trials with the controller. You see enough from the game that you know it could be good if you get the settings right. But I never could, I tried many permutations of aids and setups, and could rarely find the sweet spot. I would have dumped the game had I not got the ...

slimer, you were racing OK at Maple Valley the other week while I was on my burn from the stern. If nothing else, a few laps of the 'Ring with human company is experience and you might pick up a few pointers - once you demystify the place, it's just another racetrack, albeit a very long one...you ...

Out on the Ring. Too hard for me. Maybe I'll race some NASCAR since I can only handle turns in one direction.

I broke down and bought the MS wheel again. I dumped the wheel a month ago when I couldn't seem to drive well in Forza or Dirt.

I gave the controller every chance, but I couldn't hardly control the thing. I could do just well enough for a few laps or so, but it was full on concentration just to ...

I am out tonight, I don't have anyone to watch the baby and I am terrible at this track. I may be on playing NCAA, so I didn't want Zep to think I was justing ignoring invites.

I am not bothered in the least by your lack of voice. I'll take credit for the walk through the grass, but I m sure it was due to bad driving. I have to say the most distracting thing about you approaching in my rear view mirror (other than the fact that for some amazing reason you are behind me ...

Got booted from live with 10 laps to go. I had just spun out so maybe I deserved it. I was running a pretty solid 4th for most of the race though.

Had fun.

The AWE Tuning S4 is a fun car to drive, and I slid it every possible way including in the dirt, so it was probably me you saw. I would like to use the excuse of using a lower PI stock car, but you won with an even lower PI stock car, so there goes that excuse.

Even so, next time I will make sure I ...

Are we limited to only what's in our career garages?

I like the R cars better than A, but I am just happy to have a chance to race.

I would be interested. I am also interested in racing with the DSP crowd in general. I have been racing with some my brother-in-law and his friends trying to get them up to speed. They make the "Sunday Night Driver's" look like Lightning McQueen. I would have posted an interest in the Sunday Night ...

Jack,

Do you have a guitar plugged in? Same thing happened to me until I unplugged the guitar and rebooted the demo. The buttons all worked fine until I tried to select a car.

Been listening to Blonde Redhead daily since PK's recommendation. Can't quit listening. Great pickup.

Also picked up Congotronics . While I like it just fine, I am not seeing the groundbreaking sound that people are talking about. It seems like I have it heard it plenty every time I stepped off the ...

The F1's were too much for me last night, after the AI wiped PK out, then threw me into PK a few seconds later, I had to give up. Plus, my headset went out, so I couldn't give any warning to my poor driving.

Lot's of fun though.

Sudz, Zep, et al,

Can he take my spot in Div. 2.? As much as I would love to play, it's looking like I will struggle to meet your schedule.

I am sure this is a stupid question, but I can't figure out how to wait. I accidentally ran across the option in my first day, but I have not run across it since. I have searched the manual and the help guide to no avail. I often wanted to "wait" in these situations when you have to wait out a NPC.

Unfortunately Arsenal is my favorite team, and the one I usually play with, so I am quite estatic with the draw. Hopefully your redraw will go well.
