| LOL the point of allowing a racing line aid was to make the race more friendly to novice drivers. If you're put off by that then obviously you want a more serious competition which wasn't the purpose of this event anyway. Don't wanna race? Fine go ahead, last thing we need is more people taking this game too seriously. | |

Good luck telling Triumph that. Now I ponder the meaning behind triumph's name...Is it the car or is it the pro way of saying 'always winning'? | |

| Once you break the 1 minute barrier the braking line won't make any difference anymore. Those who do usually use the line will most likely be hitting times over a minute so you don't even have to worry about them since you will start in front of them with your 1 minute qualification. I don't see where my reasoning is off here?
I will gladly remove you from the event, seems like there's more going on here than a simple braking line.

| I've had near no prep time but I've gotten laps as low as 1:01 flat. | |

| You complain about the braking line not being realistic but you drive a manual with no clutch.. | |

LOL, funny thing is, this is why Triumph isn't running 59's. And i'd like to add my 2 cents on this racing line business. It is an ASSIST. you can't really argue the fact that using the line is having the game help you. However you use the line, the game is helping you. just to judge your braking points, whatever... that being said. Once you know where to brake, the line becomes mostly obsolete. So who cares if it's on for the slower racers? it will no doubt help those unfamiliar with the course, but if your so unfamiliar that the game is actually helping your line, then you're still going to be too slow to compete with the top drivers anyway. Its somewhat useless to be bothered by others using the racing line if you're actually fast. Drivers who are fast and use the line would still be just as fast without it, in a tiny amount of time. Anyone in this competition running under 1min. could surely do it racing line or not. Not to mention this track is all about late apex's and corner exits if you really want to shave tenths, not braking. | |

| I just use the line to get a good turn-in and pace on hairpins and hard turns. I blast through most lighter turns. | |
