That was a better race, I even managed to stay within 10 second of the leader that time. Looks like @Sven Jurgens had a good race too by the results. Great racing with you man, don’t worry about letting me by, I’ll find my own way if there is one. I appreciate the thought though man. :cheers:

Yeah I’d say the one stop on mediums is the quickest/simplist way to go. Stop on lap 4/5/6 depending on your positioning.

That was odd

The car behind me didn't get hit, yet suddenly impossibly sped up. Lag?
He took me and @Pigems out :(

Great race after. I finally broke the 1:50 barrier with a 1:49.951 :)

I was wondering what happened there lol, we were having a great race up until that. People flying off the track everywhere. Oh well, them’s the breaks. :)

That was a. Fast room though.

Edit: That next race was more like it, I was up to 5th until I got bump passed in the hairpin on lap 10. Still a good run though, I think Sven had some troubles, he ended up finishing last I think. Did you say your dog needed to go out, what did you do pull into the pits? :)

Fewf, just made the next one by 7 seconds lol. This will be my last of the night, I hope it’s a good one. :)

That race after I wasn't paying attention, spun at spoon, then after recovering some A/S driver thought it necessary to push me off on the way to the chicane. After 2 spin trips through the gravel my tires already had so much damage that instead of limping behind the pack I went to walk the dog :)

Good race! You got up there. Lot of fast rooms lately.
See ya next time, don't see you in the line-up for 10pm.

Doh, I'm in a full B/S room!
Which just totally crashed.

I'm going to check out Tokyo for my last race today, 22:10 room.

Cad idea, Tokyo + Argentinians + lag = another race at Suzuka to restore SR :banghead:
Down to 81 from that disconnect at Suzuka plus getting rammed repeatedly at Tokyo, fun.

So we happened to be on the same race lol. I should've finished 3rd on that one :(
 
I had a much better time on Tsukuba today. Tried a few races and they were all clean fun. QT 1:11.931. Got me top 3 starts. I lost a position every race. But still + DR and clean SR.

I was on a run of bad luck recently, getting knocked out in consecutive races so it feels good to string a few clean races together.
 
What a great race to cap off the night, 18th to 4th in a fairly quick room, it even had some drama as I was run off once and bump passed by a guy that’s hit me a few times over the past couple days. :)

This is the guy who’s knocked me off and bump passed me at least 3 times in the past few days, he did it again here so I decided to send him on a trip, rarely do you get the chance immediately afterwards so I didn’t wanna waste it, I didn’t even get a penalty somehow. :lol:


Then this guy decides to purposely knock me off, again this guy has done this before. He clearly swerved over at me and hits me on purpose, I can’t wait to see him again. And I will. :mad:


The penalty system got him this time, but it doesn’t usually happen this way. :)
 
Well. I actually raced tonight. I started from the back on Suzuka. My first race was horrible especially being stuck behind someone using his brakes too much and to long. I hit him braking on the turn before the hard left.

My second race did better. I went from 17 to 9. I was up to 7 until I messed up.

They definitely need to do something about the penalty line. Someone needed to serve a .5 I wasn’t quick enough to go around and I clipped him as soon as he unghosted.

That guy from your second and third video (I know him, dirty) just started on pole in the 'naughty' room (80-89 SR). He rage quit at some point DNF :lol:
I made it to 5th through the chaos. Top 4 were all South Americans, coincidence.... I got hit a couple times along the way with the SR Down for me naturally, still +11 SR to 92, enough to be in the fast (and cleaner) rooms again tomorrow.

I'd like to see them add a Duel or Rivals Race instead of One Make. Example: BoP a Viper and Corvette or other "Rival" cars and let people choose one and race them against each other. would be fun to see what people use.

This would be something that will bring something “extras” to the game for sure. Actually no bad idea at all because this will also increase the chance for other cars to be drivin which are normally left aside. I like it.

Hot lapping Race A. Couldn’t get below 1:13. Well off the pace. Watched the fastest EU lap.....don’t use 2nd gear!

Tried again: now 1:12.048. :)

Also watch your speed when going through T1 between 64/68 km/h, T2 60ish, T3 54/57. As long as you don't put to mutch pressure on those front tires when going through the turns you can gain some serious time. My Q is 1.11.7 atm .11.0 needs to be possible with some polishing on those corners.
