Default Should I Leap to Advance Rookie?  
So, today I just raced my second full race without any 10054 error and I'm starting to realize how stupid people in Rookie level - basically wreckfest! My two races that involved crashes which not my fault.

It's just annoying me that I was running top 5 and someone lose control and then rammed into me. Or someone got spun out and decided to drive down track - right in everyone's path.

[sigh] Now that I'm already pass 3.00 SR and should I just go ahead race at Advance Rookie level? Are their racing much more cleaner than Rookie level? I really wanted to get to 4.00, so I can race on Late Models and SK Modified.

Rookie and Advanced Legends vehicle are bit different - Rookie has a speed cap and Advanced don't (and VERY easy to spin out).

Me personally, I just did time trials to get my SR up in the Legends after having some of the same frustrations you've mentioned.
Late Models are where it's at! Much cleaner racing, more power, and a more "proper" race car compared to that little Yamaha powered POS they call a "car".

Oh..and avoid the SK Modified. Well...honestly, it's a TON of fun. I like it better than the Late Models...But iRacing has reduced the schedule to only 2 days a week. So if you do buy it, right now you can only Race, TT, or Practice with it on Wed and Sat. Of course, you can test with it all you want...just no "official" sessions.

Definitley get out of the rookie Legends. I'm fixing to buy the last three remaining tracks for Late Models and the Silverado Trucks.

I have been practicing Legends on South Boston... I kept spun out at every exiting turns. Arghh. It's back to practice, practice, and practice.

Maybe I can adjust rear ratio that would help less chance to spin out at exiting turn. I did that on Lainer and I hardly spin out there.
