Spinner Cup
Alright I havn't been to any cups to tell you the truth. I would love to and will be once we get unshaped intenet in a few months. But I have noticed no spinner cups and thats just about the only car I can drive.

Spinner is not that good in racing situations. Its low weight is probably the cause, since when you hit the car in front of you during a curve, your speed is lowered too much and your line is compromised. Spinner is quite easy to handle otherwise, which makes overtakes harder.
EasySlider is probably the best car for racing with many players, since it's easier than Slider to handle and it's possible to easily change driving line when contacts occur.
Slider is quite ok too, but overtakes are often linked to continuous contacts, which are bad (mainly because sometimes they are too rough, imo).
AntiSlider is an interesting car. Probably the easiest default car to handle (you can easily learn it, and your gap to best players won't be as big as with other cars), but contacts and overtakes are kind of catastrophic.
Speeder is a very hard car to handle, but it's absolutely nice in racing situations when you try to prevent bumps. It allows you to take different lines for overtaking, and it can be very nice for battles between two or more equally skilled players.

I see I see. I know understand now what you mean by the car is lightweight and contact is catastrophic. But (Im not saying im good because im not) if you drive the spinner correctly its better at overtaking then any other car (Due to its lightweight and acceleration) and for the same reasons as the overtaking ability it can also be the hardest car to overtake. With a spinner you have to pass like they do in motocross. It might be jerkish but it works. Come in alot faster and slide infront of the other guy. If your fast out of the corner or not, it doesn't matter because the guy you just passed although quicker and heavier is still behind you and cant do anything as long as your right infront of him. I mean I raced against a guy with a speeder and I was quicker on the straights because he bumped into the back of me. That just my opinion. I know other cars are good and probably better but the spinner if used correctly can be lethal.
I did not read this through. ignore spelling and grammer mistakes.
And i don't spell that well either.

Well, it can't really be considered blocking if it is the player behind him that bumps into his back.. If he blocked his way when he tries an overtake, it'd be blocking - as far as I know. Otherwise it'd be pretty easy to accuse everyone for blockingdede wrote:Well that's considered blocking!Ek Poepol wrote:I mean I raced against a guy with a speeder and I was quicker on the straights because he bumped into the back of me.
