Maggiore Centre was really good racing ! Very clean and crisp, with the expierence in the TT from last week, I could do with max 3 laps practise for the braking point en of we went, did it 2 times now running around P6 (middle of the pack) and guess what? No divebomb, no intended bumping etc etc etc.
Racing was tight, but very clean and fair.

I like Maggiore centre too... nice to slow things down every now and again :) got a good time in the Atenza last week too so hoping for some good racing tonight.

I may do it.. not sure yet. I think with Race A and B I won't have time to do the FIA events tonight... :)

Good morning!

Going to race at Alsace Village this time, going live:

What the man in Italia (2nd) did in last lap and half - he was much, much quicker than me?

Full fuel usage, can it be so effective?


Btw, I'm happy anyway :)
 
Today seems like a “if you can’t beat em join em” kinda day, tried the Porsche, viper and R35 and can’t break into 1:35 on Kyoto. Get in the M6 and get it first try. Feel like I could do better in the viper but it’s a bit too wild

Everyone in the Beemer then?
 
You wont see me in a BMW (even though my profile pic lets you think otherwise) :p
Guess I'll give the Lexus another shot.

Also, how does the Gr.4 Top10 look so far? All BMWs too?

;) I was thinking Lexus too
 
First race down for the day. The Skyline seemed to be better behaved, but I swear handling degrades in the last lap or two. There was a fair bit of rear end taps all round, but none of it was deliberate. SR dropped below 90 for the first time in 22 days :ouch:. I guess that makes me a dirty driver huh Robben? :p

Going to buy the Lexus, just tried the NSX what a pile of turd
 
Group 3 has had a mixed bag of cars in the Asia/Oceania region. Super, super quick racing, too. I’m having to do 1.33s just to get on the podium.
 
Tried the Lexus and what a machine, beat my qualifying time, but I’m a BMW wanker today, it’s far superior. Just need to knock up a livery for it as I couldn’t possibly look the same as everyone else!
 
Gr3 at Kyoto Yam.? Nice! I hate the combined circuit.

I'm also (kinda) looking forward to Gr4. That can go either way, so I guess we will see.

That's a shame because I really like the 911 RSR, find the M6 a nightmare to drive and its so wide I struggle to race clean with it lol

Yam only :)
I like both to be honest... Yama+Miyabi is really good for SR as there are about 20 sectors.

I found myself to be rather successful at Yam. Unfortunately, I just cannot get a good rhythm when it is Yam. and Mi. combined. It feels so unnatural to me tbh :/ It just ruins the flow of the track. Yam. is a very fast course, and then you arrive at Mi., and it is just so much slower.

I love that little chicane Yam. has. It's a perfect passing opportunity (not dive bombing, but actual passing), and I enjoy the challenge because it's possible to take it fast, but the slightest slip is disaster. With the combined course, it just becomes a hairpin :/

Personally I prefer the Viper, even though it may not be quite as fast as the go to car. Just don't want to run with the crowd I guess !!!!
 
I just totally had it with the dr/sr system. **** that ****. Just dropped from A to C on sr, without stopping things on purpose. Even got a sr warning when somebody else put his car on the inside almost without braking. I don't care anymore. The ones who hit me will get hit back, and yes I will cutting corners too..

I love the viper but like I said it’s just too wild for me to compete. I think a better driver could do well with it

Maybe the guy ramming you just thought "Oh God, the system is so bad, I'm not gonna follow the rules any more!" Please don't. If everyone tried to regard any collision as unintentional or partly to be blamed on himself first, the system would work best.

Personally, I've had my experiences with rammers, but only in one single case I am sure that it was on purpose. I never tried to raise my SR by not competing and I rarely drop down from 99 points. The rating system isn't so bad after all imho.

The Lexus is good... turns and accelerates much better than the Porsche. It is now my 'go to' since Mitch recommended last week

The Viper is not bad too also and I personally use the AMG GT a lot of times, it's solid on every track without ever been the best car but on some tracks you just have to use the M6 because it's OP. Seen some use the Lancer to decent effect too but never really used it myself.
