Skip Barber at RBR - any tips?

You have a wheels out option in the cfg and also a race penalty/gas cut option so you can set it to have qualifying disqualification without the annoying race throttle cut which is what we used to do.

I disagree on the other points, there is plenty of track cutting in real racing. IIRC they even added those larger sausage curbs at this very track to try and stop F1 drivers (so at the highest level of motorsport) using so much run off at RBR. The last BTCC race they did the same at Thruxton by placing a tyre stack at the last chicane because drivers were cutting it too much.

I used to have the same opinion as you and refused to go beyond the grey stuff but could see it often in MP where I was putting myself at a disadvantage and then you set an RSR time and wonder if your competitors are using more track or you are driving in a race and spend half your thought process analyzing if the bit of curb you took is too much curb or not enough and oh wait that guy is taking a bit more here or a bit less there so should I be doing the same... in the end I said balls to it I will just drive to the limits set by the game settings/RSR as that is a tangible limit for everybody.

At the end of the day I'm happy to race to any limit as long as it is the same for everybody. To race to strictly 2 wheels outside the actual track SRS would need tp police every race though. Until then you can either be left wondering if other people are using more road than you and whether you are using enough, or just race to the valid track limit and be satisfied it is the same for all. IMO.
