Only if the driver(s) behind you are USING Ventrillo tho.Bold wrote:What I find works even better, is using ventrilo to chat during the race.
I know, I know . . . you'll say that we should all be on it . . . but I can't handle the distortion from some guys (and the broadcast car noise from guys who use standalone mics and speakers) and the "overlapping messages" that simply become unintelligible . . . and also, just because guys are ON Ventrillo, it doesn't mean that your broadcast message is always heard by everyone . . . or that it's even been TRANSMITTED clearly if someone else is talking at the same time.
Don't get me wrong . . . I think the idea of Voice comm is great . . . when it works properly . . . I just find it more annoying than useful . . . maybe it's the distance to Oz.
At least text is reliable . . . . tho you have to allow time for lag, in case several messages have been queued from other drivers.
