SUPERSTAR RACING
Superstar Racing is a Massively Multiplayer Online Game, based on Formula 1.
Apparently it came out in October 2008, though I only discovered it in February 2010.
There are around 2 million registered accounts (though MANY are 2nd, 3rd or even more accounts by the same person!)

October 2010 - Am doing some driving for SHADOWS_F1, a very promising up an coming team in Superstar Racing. If you have not heard of this team yet, they are powering their way up the rankings at an amazing rate, and will soon achieve recognition.
The team founder is its_all_true. I am spending a short while with this team. I just came back to the game briefly because I was bored and wanted to see how it has got on in the almost 3 months I have been away.
UPDATE: I was right. SHADOWS_F1 ARE powering their way up the rankings. They are now 53rd, as of 2nd March 2011. 1 week later, they have passed the 100 Million points mark!

About Me in Superstar Racing
In-game Name: rjbetty84
Real Name: Richard
Age: 27
Location: Reading, UK
Joined Superstar Racing: March 2010
Favourite Real Life Driver: Giancarlo Fisichella
Driving Style: Based on Nasser Al-Attiyah - consistent and dependable, with good but less than the best speed, never really pushing to/beyond the limit, so maybe a bit boring. Will always get the best result possible. Never give up, always get to the finish. Don't crash (too) much. When I do, it's often cos of lagging. In F1 terms, that is similar to Nick Heidfeld. There is a use for that kind of driver!
I am using only a keyboard. I have no gamepad or steering wheel. This means I am nowhere near the pace of the very best players in the game. I can't be bothered to shell out for a gamepad. I would like one so I can see how I compare with the best in the world. I am roughly 4.5 seconds off the pace on short tracks and about 9 seconds off on long tracks. The lack of gamepad accounts for a huge chunk of that, but unfortunately, I think it definitely doesn't account for all of it...
I don't know how much advantage the gamepad has over the keyboard. I think I heard it was around 4-5 seconds on average. I am about 6.5 seconds off the best of the world pace...

6th ever podium in Race Arena. Korea Long - 11th Nov 2010.
1st ever double podium (with a team mate)
1st ever double podium (with a team mate)
Both winners!!
Myself and Reck_786 finished a race on Japan 3laps Short in a dead heat. The game didn't seem to know what to do, and who won - so we were both awarded the win!
On my computer, I was on the top step on the podium with Reck_786 2nd. But on his computer, he was shown on the top with me on the 2nd step!
Then on returning to the paddock, we BOTH had gold trophies, out of one race!
UPDATE: This has happened again since.
