Ouch - very frustrating after spending so much time! I'm a lot more conservative when I flip channels and leave at least 10 seconds per remaining lap before I zone out.

My driver's name is F.Lee (I was hoping for good karma, but... no.) I wish I could change it to the more fitting B.Luehair. All that is missing is a turn signal left flashing during the entire race.

Last night I got the Loony Tune Award for throwing tons of mods into a truck to win the Daytona race on the Amateur Sport Truck series. I didn't see any way around it when you can't make the driver draft. I had to re-run several races to recoup my money. :( Afterward I read some forums to see what others had done and the frustrated and familiar comments nearly had me in tears I was laughing so hard. But it did confirm experience makes "G.Ramps" a better driver. One person said he gave up when he was at Level 8 and couldn't place better than 6th. Later he came back at Level 15 and won easily with the same truck. There's hope yet!
