Worth a read. (http://www.filsca.com/mmedia/2004.09.16/1095375990.pdf) As a general guide of course. If you're a dMw guy most of this will be second nature.  :)

Some good points in that ... keeping a SAFE distance for me is the bit ill be working on  :blush:

Fully agree with the guy behind taking all responsiblity for any passing. Field of view is far too risticted in sims  :)

A FOV is limited - which is why putting the rearview function on a button on the controller is a good idea :)

I crash all to often keeping my mincers peeled on the road ahead. Looking behind would be catastrophic ;)

If I career across the track when you are over taking me, it's actually the way I drive.....so I've been saying it anyway, if you are going past and on teamspeak tell me and I'll stay straight.

I try not to cut anyone up, but bugger looking around, I struggle with the forward thing aswell.
