I've done my fair share of online racing. Unfortunately, I don't have the time to race in an leagues but I do enjoy racing other people when I have the time.

Half the problem with online racing is that a lot of people (probably kids) don't know how to race. It's aggravating when you try to make a clean pass on someone and they purposely ram into you to prevent the pass. That's no fun.

I actually prefer keeping most of my cars mostly in their stock form with either some very mild modifications and sport soft tires.

That's right.

I got tired of over tuning every car that I owned just to make it undrivable. Plus, the seasonal events are much more enjoyable when you earn the win. It's no fun wining the race on the first lap.

I added you but you aren't showing up in my GT5 community yet. You might need to log back into the game before you appear in my community. I'll send you over a brand new 370Z as soon as I can.
