Dodge 7,265 Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 has anyone ever passed and beat Rev? I played his race the other day with the 20 mountain drew ramps in the water. Quite the challenge. Nobody can beat him on his tracks. But I can beat him on mine. My tracks dont seem to be very conducive to Rev. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.rockstarsocialclub.net/forums/topic/1359-this-thing-called-racing/page/3/#findComment-21058 Share on other sites More sharing options...

desuno1 351 Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 I would recommend 'Past the Business Center' as a good track for practicing your driving skills.It makes you practice finding racing lines and controlling your car, since it's both technical and fast. It also makes you practice using your brakes, if you don't you'll most likely spin out and loose control of your car. The track also has many places where you can overtake people, which also helps you with practicing that. I think it's very suitable for practicing this thing called 'racing'. If you master it, there's not a track that you won't do good at. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.rockstarsocialclub.net/forums/topic/1359-this-thing-called-racing/page/3/#findComment-21201 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkenburger 57 Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 Just got beat in an epic race (since I had a shot at the win for once ) by Rumdig and he mentioned something like I "was trying to take him out". He won so it wasn't a big deal but I'm wondering: Say you're in first place on a long straight to the finish: Is it fair play to block your opponent from passing you by taking your slipstream? I totally got his point but to me it felt normal, I never wanted to play nasty... 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.rockstarsocialclub.net/forums/topic/1359-this-thing-called-racing/page/3/#findComment-22110 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let them pass and get straight in the slip stream yourself. That is why I like to race without slipstream, it's not right. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.rockstarsocialclub.net/forums/topic/1359-this-thing-called-racing/page/3/#findComment-22111 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I totally got his point but to me it felt normal, I never wanted to play nasty... Hey man, it's no big deal. I mentioned taking me out because it "seemed" as though you moved over late, while I was next to you. I wouldn't have minded taking 2nd, you deserved it after holding 1st for that long ass race I, personally, do not try to block. However, I don't necessarily see an issue with it either.

Valkenburger 57 Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 I was and am honestly wondering about this in general, any more opinions on this? I'm talking about the situation right before the finish line only, otherwise I would always let anyone pass. And you caught me indeed Rumdig, so close I was was, so close Guess I like races where people don't get to pick their cars Quote Link to comment https://www.rockstarsocialclub.net/forums/topic/1359-this-thing-called-racing/page/3/#findComment-22149 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pb76 3,952 Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 I say let them pass, if you try and block you could both crash out and both lose a couple of places....

As pb said, you could both lose places, points and cash It happened yesterday on one of Newyork nightmares playlist races, was 3rd until the home straight and panda drafted me. All you can do is watch them fly past. I suppose you could try and prevent them slipstreaming you by moving to one side, not sure how well that would work though. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.rockstarsocialclub.net/forums/topic/1359-this-thing-called-racing/page/3/#findComment-22153 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it is tough to do but it's possible. I see a few such as rev, dodge and desuno often moving to one side to prevent the car behind from slipstreaming them, even if you can stop them using it for half a second - it could be the difference between 1st and 2nd. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.rockstarsocialclub.net/forums/topic/1359-this-thing-called-racing/page/3/#findComment-22155 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkenburger 57 Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 (edited) Lol, but driving like an idiot is all I know... Did get what I was looking for thanks, thanks DavidCore89 and PB76! Breaking the slipstream before the actual pass is what I'll try to do from now on. Which in the heat of the moment might produce a frontal collision with a tree Edited May 17, 2014 by Valkenburger 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.rockstarsocialclub.net/forums/topic/1359-this-thing-called-racing/page/3/#findComment-22232 Share on other sites More sharing options...
