Teamwork is key. Can be pretty easy to take P1-P3 and separate away from P4 early in the race until the finish. As long as you find a 0.7s or so advantage after L1, you should be alright (especially with proper weaving to disrupt slipstream for people behind you).This is getting ridiculous, 4th win of the night & I'm the pissed up Brit now
A lot of the other racers seem to be getting used to bump drafting now, had a good bit of teamwork with a few other players, especially when a dirty one is around the group 👍
Did another but decided to qualify this time. Didn't help, still started 10th with 11 in the room. Through other's misfortunes, finished 2nd.Daily race A is hilarious. Decided to randomly jump in for a race. Didn't even qualify. Started 12th, finished 5th. Needs to be a couple laps longer.
I really wish it was something like this but I just don't have the faith in them to do this. The changes they have made to the system in the year or so I have been playing don't seem to suggest they are beta testing to cover all the gaps.I just had a thought. What are the odds that PD is letting things play out to see what people are trying to get away with in order to make penalties in the PS5 version of GT more correct?
yes we can pit . I have yesterday after a bad start where te same guy given me 6 sec penalty twice in the same lap by diving from half second behind . I slowed down and pit to start gaining back SR point
At least at Spa the races are still good after lap 2.
I always prefer race C over A and B. They are just too short and players are too desperate to win them. Blame the victories trophy or blame the race lengths. I view both as the culprits of this.I did about 6 races on BMB this morning.
The 'good' news, I won the first one with a 1.8 sec lead... Got lucky while the rest kept fighting.
The rest were all ruined either by BS penalties or getting rammed into the wall (caught quite a bit of air twice). I quit one after getting rammed so hard I got 10 sec in wall penalties, spun around dead stop in last. In another one of those races I tried to help 2nd place catch up with one of the most dirty drivers in first by ghost drafting (2 laps down lol). The dive bomb rammer won anyway (2nd had a 1 sec bs penalty, no use) with a blue S, Brazilian...
My racing with qualifying on BMB cost me 2100 DR, down to 36.5K. All races were in A/S. So back to Spa (without qualifying) to gain DR again
This game has become such a mess
I had that problem yesterday, 5 minutes sat there like a royal plonker! Subbed your channel @TJC_69 very humourous videos you put up, I'm still laughing at the Suzuka one, with the guy that tried to take you out, and missed!
I had another earlyish Race C again, and a great win!

With the win, I finally broke through the 40.000 DR barrier, chuffed with that!

Feeling confident, I decided to go for another race, and oh dear, the loons turned up to spoil everyone's fun, including myself, getting a 5 sec penalty for someone barging past at the start of lap 2! Thankfully it didn't hurt my DR, and I got 8th place by the end.
Great, fun races when you meet up with like minded, clean racers.....But sadly there are always a few morons around, god knows how they keep their DR/SR to A/A+ with the way they drive.
And yes my mistake, with all the chaos going on, I forgot to turn off TC after the start, I promise your honour that I never race with TC on, as all it does is slow you down!
Good fun all the same!
I think you subbed a while ago if I remember correctly. 5 minutes is super long. I thought 3 was bad Congrats on your 40K. I'll get up to there after i've finished my last to first challenges and wins and poles for platinum. Then i'll see where my DR settles. My racecraft, tactics and consistency are better than my qualifying. Which is probably better than being a great time trialler and a bad racer I think lol. Will take a peak of video too! Omg, what happened turn one? Hitting that sub button on your YT too buddy.
Thanks man
I'm low B and it's pretty good actually. A few dirty drivers but the majority want to race.
Ah my mistakeThanks mate, and yup subbed you this morning, not before!! Cheers for subbing me also!
It's hard improving race craft with how the Dailies have gone sadly mate.....For me, PD made a big mistake when they effectively turned off the penalty system in January for the bug that appeared, and is still there, as very quickly it bred bad, dirty driving, and also with how it works now, with more often or not, the innocent party gets the penalty, as the wallies know how to exploit it to their advantage...
All the same, gotta keep peddling!
Anytime mate. Yeah I have no idea what PD are thinking with the penalty system either. For a company that claims to read feedback from this site on the game, and with the heated feedback they received from the World Tour players regarding the state of the game, you'd think they'd do something about it. The penalty system around a year ago was fine. Rear contacts were punished, and all round it kinda worked. I guess they either don't know how to code it properly, thinking every time they tinker with it that it's an improvement. With it being their way or no way?
