Is it just me, or has iRacing been feeling more like bumper cars recently? I haven't been playing iRacing for too long, so I'm curious about others' perspectives, but recently it's felt like the driving standard of those competing, even in higher splits, has dramatically dropped. I'm constantly competing with people using others as brakes for corners, taking out half the pack in like the first or second lap when acting like a hero makes zero sense. Granted I'm not the fastest out there but it feels like people's common sense to back out of a manuaver or willingness to take a corner 3 wide without changing speed or breaking zones has dramatically increased as of late. Just wanted to see what others takes are. Maybe I'm just getting to sucked in as of late and letting little shit affect me, but it's killed a lot of fun these past couple weeks. Maybe the lower splits just had more people focused on learning the craft vs people on higher splits thinking they are max verstappen, idk.
