This one is a failed attempt at a forced pit, and then some other nonsense at turns 1 and 2. WTF is with these people? :confused:
I have no idea how I avoided that pit wall, but I'm really glad I did, because if not, I know me, and me would've kept coming back and back until I found that guy and spilled his blood on the asphalt. :mad:

Yep that was a load of BS from those guys. I love the guy who flew off in turn 1 lol. Morons everywhere.
 
My racing today been up and down. I caught this guy in a race ramming people and taking people out. I took the liberty to shut him down. You’ll see it from my angle, then from his. I put mine first to show how bad it looked from my eyes. I can understand one of the take outs. Heat of the moment gets to you.

 
Okay, I'm ready for the next lot of races. Any predictions?

Race A: GR.4 FF/Autopolis

Race B: N300/Tsukuba

Race C: GR.2/Fuji

I did that yesterday. I guess I bumped the L2 button, which is my down-shifter. :dunce:

Now, here's a funny clip. This is some of the worst lag I've seen. @Sven Jurgens, you'll probably appreciate this. Check out the Argentinian starting 5th, in the green car.
First you'll see what he looks like from my perspective, then from his car's perspective, which is really funny. :lol:


After thinking about it, I kinda feel sorry for him, because he didn't see any of that on his TV, and probably thought everyone was smashing the hell out of him for no reason. But, in reality, none of us actually knew where his car was on the track.
He may be telling his friends right that GT Sport sucks, because everyone is a jerk.
Perception is reality. 💡

This is why I think they should go back to splitting up the regions. The excuse before was there wasn't enough players in their region to fill the grids. At least if you play with people from the same area this may not be an issue. And now, and don't quote me on this, I believe there are more players so filling grids shouldn't be an issue.
 
2 races so far today. 1 A and 1 C. Both were pretty clean.

Race C I got bump passed and penalized. Unintentional but still backwards. But only lost 1 position.

Feeling real slow though. Both races I am 1-2 seconds. behind. More laps I guess.

Noticed after I lost -5 SR! :confused::rolleyes:

Today I had fun on my alt, TPC_Megatrone in Race C all day from the back. There has been good races. My highest was 4th at this point. I almost had 3rd but I messed up braking T1 on the last lap. Since I’m on vacation from work (no, covid-19 is not stopping that). I’ll be racing more.

Other races I had fools like these. I have more coming lol.



This one left me alone after this payback:

Honestly watching "play stupid games 2" I think you are the one the blame, you had enough space to turn on the kerbs but you brake to late and crashed into him, where was he supposed to go? u did not left him enough space to turn.
And in any case it looks like a normal race crash, you misjudged the braking point, it happens.

I disagree.

My braking was fine. As you can see, he had abs off (abs glitch, maybe) and bad front tires. If those wasn’t a factor, he would have made that turn clean.

I think he didn’t have the awareness. If I was that driver, I would have went wide, knowing someone is on my inside and I have bad tires.

And that justifies what came later in "play stupid games 2"?

I wasn't ready for that. I almost had Dr. Pepper spraying out of my nose. :lol:

Almost did while chewing gum.


I was going to place GR.1 at Le Mans, but thought PD will repeat the GR.2 Fuji.

Gr2 at Fuji a couple months back was full-on sexy time.

Been out of commission this week so far with controller thumb... even worse than skier's thumb.
 
WOW. Might have had one of my fav races in C just now on my Alt. Apart from a dirty driver blocking, I had some extremely intense battles working from 5th to 2nd in a all B/S room. Like side by side zero room for error lap after lap and some of the cleanest consecutive battling I’ve gotten to enjoy. Def saved that replay. Felt like we all needed a beer after that.

Started 19th and finished 2nd. I’m not kidding. The Megane is a cheat code here. You can place it anywhere you want and switch lines mid corner with no loss in speed. I juked so many into thinking I would dive bomb with my better brakes, they compromised all there exit speed and suddenly I’m .7 up on them.

Edit: Jumped in for round two with same group. Same thing. Nearly got first, lost by .068. Great clean group.

I agree with what to say, but if he wouldn't miss the brake he would turn even closer to you. Two cars can turn together there I did it more than once today, and I'm rookie.

I don't want to start a fight, and I don't want say a word about what happened next:cheers:
 
Well after a mean and tough bump fest in race C I came out with a blue S. Still at 99. Went into race A and it was simply a violent lap 1. Slammed before turn 1, into turn 1, out of turn 2/hairpin, sandwich slammed through turn 3 and hit exiting turn 4. Ended up getting away but managed to get hit entering the last turn which sent me into another car where I bounced back into another car heading in too fast. Ech. Ended up down 25 SR for 4 laps. And no penalties.:lol:

Now to figure out how to repair it.

What’s every one driving in races b and c? And tips on brake bias for the newbs
 
Just had a good race with another driver where we both had some issues not tapping each other. Both of us made a mistake and pushed the other off during the race and I waited for them, when it happened in reverse they waited for me. Great to see the sportsmanship still out there.👍
Cost us both about 4 positions by the end of the race to wait, but I would still rather race them than the push pass and barge monkeys around the rest of the field.

And for the second time in about 10 days I get pole in a race and it ends with a disconnect on the loading screen!!!! I don't get pole often. Would have been nice to try. So I went to a race A, got bashed twice on lap 1 by others just drifting, and back down to A SR again.:banghead: It makes sense to make it harder to get but this is ridiculous. 2 or 3 race C to make up for basically 4 turns of lap 1 on race A.
