Hi, im having great difficulty making up time at valencia in the 8hr series, is there a bike that handles better than others round ther, any setup tips to keep my bike more stable going into the last corner?, theres a few corners where your not able to sit up and brake in a straight line where im having most difficulty. With having harder tyres on it is very slippery.
 
The 7 Honda makes easy work of these races.

With decent skill and some knowledge of Valencia, any of the 8-hour bikes will take down the AI riders. Avoid the ZX-10 if you’re finding that you’re struggling. Further, although the CBR is fast, the R1 and Gixer are more benign.

Yeah, I use the X button too. But you just gotta watch out in the lower gears.
 
How come i don't see the 8hr races. As far as I know, there are 21 types of races in career.

You have to finish all the other races before the 8HR series shows itself.
