this morning i went looking for a raceway(track) to just basically improve on my cycle handling skills, and ended up at Mooz's(ty for the bike rezzer Les!!). there were a few carsout and racing and i paid no mind and rezzed a bike at the rezzer(anyone who has been to Mooz may know what im talkin about) and proceeded to lap the track. i wasnt the only one out there and yes i know sometimes hittin someone is unavoidable, i even crashed into a few people...we apologised laffed and kept goin.

well to get to the point, there were a couple of car racers out who kept hitting me, even though i tried to stay out of thier way by racing inside the track, then outside. needless to say i got hot hada few words, and it became like a bad scene out of mad max. i am inno way proud of my behavoir. but i do want to be able to continue racing, or learning, at Mooz's. so whats the rule of thumb regarding this?

Have you ever seen a race on a 1/4 mile circle track with 14 cars in RL?

its mayhem. lots of bad drivers, lots of crashes.

bad behavior is up to the race officials, and if there arent any...anything goes...

(sweet little old me, will send someone into the wall without a thought, LOL ;) )

lol i know Avacea!....but i just came from there and it was nice... a couple of oopsies but i think im gettinbetter at avoidin them (mini map helps a lot). as for best bikes depends on what kind You want, for the harleys? West Coast Classics , for Racers? Les White(so far, His look very realistic, low lag as well) depends on what You want though.
