Well i was 3rd. Number 15 was ahead, Number 2 went straight through him as he got ghosted. I tried the same and boom contact. I rammed into him. He didn't ghost for me. 4th passed me bcoz of this. I was like wtf
and if i start watching from the beginning of the race at 23:35 i can see that you didnt like getting passed on the 1st corner and you tried getting back by cutting the next corner
You are A now though, aren't you? And mate, you were starting way ahead of me in the BB and Interlagos races we were matched in and battling with the front lot.
Sounds good... I was watching a video someone on here posted the other day and it does look absolutely ridiculous! Did you get any motion sickness or anything?
If only....
Got to keep finishing top half to gain points though, which is going to get much more difficult.
To be fair, I'm not au fait with the specifics of racing "law" when it comes to 'leaving the door open', 'having the inside line' or whatever...so I will leave others to judge or rule. Personally, it's 50/50... he was losing ground to you and probably should have conceded the position, but then in his eyes you divebombed the inside and pushed him off the track. No excuse for the retaliation at all though. What level is this?
Yo I'm telling you this actually works. Another race in and no carnage again! If I get 5 races with no carnage I'll do this everytimeIf only....![]()
Those experiences is where you learn, at least in my experience. I started out 2 seconds away from Top 10. Eventually that wasn't enough as I'm getting placed midfield, as well as finishing there. I tried, and tried, and tried... Eventually I'm one second away, and at the start of January, got my first Top 10Got to keep finishing top half to gain points though, which is going to get much more difficult.
I left it at 0 yesterday and had pretty good results on Nurb GP. I guess rear would help push the back round a bit more though.What BB are guys using for the A45 AMG? I use +4 myself
Please report back! May be good advice if it works consistentlyYo I'm telling you this actually works. Another race in and no carnage again! If I get 5 races with no carnage I'll do this everytime

I can't rely on pressure alone to overtake, much less last lap reckless overtakes. That's when I learned to analyze my opponents. Getting to S isn't without its hardships; it'll be an uphill battle from here, but it's where you'll most improve
And it'll all be so worth it in the end
Sorry it became a novel
+2 works fine with meWhat BB are guys using for the A45 AMG? I use +4 myself

Honestly, people have changed. Previously, I would approach (for example) T1 at Nurburgring GP and my jaw would tighten, my buttocks would clench, my whole body would tense ready for impact and I would start to say 'please, please, please, please, please, please' when approachingSame here. Actually, I tried Sport Mode again today after almost 2 months aways. However I did in a secondary account.
Dunno if it’s just me, but several times I thought I was going to get hit from behind or sideways and it just didn’t happen. I’m not sure if I got lucky in matchmaking or people’s driving behaviour is really changing as the online mode evolve. I did 2 races with the one make in Brands Hatch and 1 at Monza with the Lambo.
Maybe, maybe I come back to play Sport Mode regulary.
Oh right. I just remembered Race C lol. Welp, might find me out there then! (UK region with secondary acc)GR3 @ Suzuka like driving on ice, have to be very careful if using no assists![]()

Daily A Mercedes AMG 45

Bathurst was amazing tonight, the penalties are much better now. The few dirty racers quickly disappeared and most of the races were as clean as can be. Clean fast rooms, finally.
My lucky escape of the day. I can still catch 4th place

Oh never mind.
I only ever had one race on Monza, the day it was added... never, EVER againMonza killed my S/R again!! I should just avoid that track i cant make it work for me.
So far I managed only 1:58.61:57.836 on Race B today. Grrr I can't set top field qualifying times recently
Update: A 1:56.924
Now that's more like it![]()
This is the main problem for me... forget about the chaos at T1... you put two wheels on a curb and you get a penalty. Absolute joke how strict the track limits are...I just seem to get penalised for everything at Monza, not seen any full on carnage or anything but my S/R slowly trickles away. I do like the track tho its the other cars that are the main issue, well that a the odd S/R reduction for marginally cutting a curb!!
I have some unbelievably sad news, the car used, believe it or not just isn't in any of the data I'm getting from PD. It's incredibly frustrating from my perspective and I'm sure it's a total bummer for everyone else. I have and idea that might work but it's a long shot and probably wont be very accurate.
Weird. Thanks anyhow, so it seems I have to keep my records on paper?This is the main problem for me... forget about the chaos at T1... you put two wheels on a curb and you get a penalty. Absolute joke how strict the track limits are...

Not gonna lie Race C with the 650S didn't go well
I didn't expect the handling to be so bad when the tire degrades, and it's also the first time I saw the rears degrade worse than the fronts
And because I didn't qualify (for the lols), I was battling with people who have braking points 50 meters earlier than mine...
I'm so sorry
In the end this is what I could musterView attachment 721726

That's what I found too. That race is the moment I realized why so many good drivers mix in a bit of throttle with the brakes
I haven't driven it in a while, but IIRC, the 650 is very sketchy braking in to turn 1/2 when the tyres start to go off.
My door number is 5, and I finished 5th as well as 1000 DR, as well as FL. A definite win in my booksDriving at the back (15th-20th start pos) in the higher level A /S DR races is a nightmare, you have people using all kinds of braking points and lines, you just don't know who is going to do what
If you ended with + DR and made up a few places - consider that a win 👍
