Morning! A dude called me "best cleanest piloting ever" after the race. I know i'm clean but this made me flattered!
I had a sr/dr reset btw...

 

[Matrix243123]

And this happened. Got my 10 wins. Zero penalties. Qualified P2 so not much drama.

 

[05XR8]

Been a while. Done completely forgot how to drive these cars. No qualy. Such a "buzzy" Beetle.

 

[LVS_1986]

Super Formula as

PD are upping their Daily game, La Sarthe this week, the Nord next week. Keep up the good work PD!!

 

[LVS_1986]

Im bit dissapointed, guess I finnaly have time to play TLOU2...

 

[05XR8]

Been doing Race B to warm me up for Manu. The Bug goes pretty good. No qualy again(12th) and the next, set a quick time before the race.

Been lots of jumping and skipping cars in my races. Many playes including me, dropping to red and low yellows.

 

[Redneckchef]

We'll have @Sven Jurgens back for 2 weeks in a row. This is a good thing.

Just had a fantastic evening of racing on Sarthe. Kept missing out on good gains with at least 1 track limit penalty per race. Third race I am matched with 2 good drivers who race hard but clean. I'm in the 787 they are both in the Nissan. Mistakes on lap 1 from them mean I have a 3 second lead, until I get a tertre rouge penalty. They catch up lap 2 and it is a long back and forth race. Lota of passing, drafting and good moves. I blow it last lap so they get ahead. But I am just working on keeping it clean. Still within 1.3. Heading to the last chicane 1 guy slides and takes out the leader, then pulls over to wait for him. As I wasn't involved I go ahead and take the win.

Suggested to the others we call it a 3 way tie. Best race I have driven this week and most fun battling. The only penalties or contact were from my track limit issue amd the incident on the final corner, which was an unfortunate incident, but deserving, and it got the right person.

Retiring for the night to more beer. Good raves are out there, go get 'em.

 

[Dairyworker]

Had another handful of good races at lemans yesterday afternoon. I am not doing all that great due to my own errors still. Track limits and visits to the beach, but have been fortunate to have good clean competition. A few little taps but nothing that felt intentional or malicious. Hope to get home in time to run a few more today before the wife gets home. My boy sturk made me a sweet livery, so if ya see me, you'll know it lol

[05XR8]

Yoooooooo! What the hell is this?!!!
Edit: I didn't save the post race pic. Crazy red ratings.

I went off once on my own after the straight. Again at the final turn off a kerb. BUT. Dude kept tapping me. Even punted me off by accident slowing for the final chicanes. I kept getting orange arrows. I just went from A/S straight down to B/C!

Damn. That sucks. Real pain when you get stuck near someone like that.

 

[LVS_1986]

DR reset, hmmm tempting... Easy poles and wins, today I got plenty of time in the evening so I could probably climb back fast... I dont wanna ruin somebodys else race, hitting a wall penalty lowers sr?

Edit: if I do this, I only do this for 65poles trophy and 91wins... It is pathetic, isnt it?

 

[Tea_Leaves]

Let him pass you ...

In hindsight, this may have been the correct action but it isn't racing anymore if one willingly concedes their position because of an incompetent penalty system.

I will scream if this is the '95 Porsche again, I want the '81 Porsche to have a race online.

I want neither, lol. Both deathtraps.

>Dragon Trail - Gardens II

It's amazing how it hasn't appeared for almost 2 years, good to see it back.

Moreover it's refreshing to see originality again, long may it continue. Super Formula or F1500 Sainte-Croix C next week?

Nah, we've been treated too well. Next week will be FFs at Autopolis, gr.4 Suzuka and gr.3 Tokyo for sure.

Each to their own for me an '80's deathtrap around that track is an appealing challenge.

Just race normally on race B next week and you'll be reset. Race B will only be worth 6 SR at most, one SR Down is -10 SR. There's only one way for SR to go. You can help it along by turning around, drive until the dq timer shows up, turn around, drive until SR Down pops up, repeat. However that SR Down is only worth -2 points (unless changed again), so you need to do it 47 times and quit at the last moment for an extra -5 SR.

N300 again, always slow cars on the Nord. One lap from the back, it will never be boring at least.
N100 and GR.4 for the other choices. It will feel like crawling after 373 kph all week.

One advantage of race B, less of a wait when "disconnected due to data loss" pops up again Grr, was 5 sec behind the leader start of lap 2, would have been an easy victory.

 

[NevilleNobody]

Absolutely livid about being reset last night, livid. I was SR99 2 nights ago, had just 3 races with a bit of contact and no way even half of it is my fault and I am reset. This is nuts, to go from 99 to reset in a few races is absolutely nuts. Such tight fields at Interlagos, there's going to be some touching. Ridiculous.

 

[viper al]

I figured after the race. Someone called you Sturk and I thought “Sturk from GTP?”

That was me ,doing some "relax racing" on my alternate account.I don't think he got my message.We were both in the 962 trying to keep up with the R92's. Good lobby,clean and fast racing

I dont want to be completely resetted DR C would be nice, with my QT for C Im 100% sure that Ill get a pole, only 5 left to get trophy... And Im good in gr1 so no problem to climb back, next week is different story

I might run one or two tomorrow but I'm in @Drex124 90 minutes gr C race at Fuji Short tomorrow. That might wear me down some

Your DR rating have gone down too?

 

[Dairyworker]

Well, my day has gone sideways. Down side is i will need to work a full day tomorrow, but the upside is hopefully gonna be lots of racing today. Hope to see some of yous at race C starting in an or or two.

Next week at the nord eh? Sweet!

 

[RacingGrandpa]

Your DR rating have gone down too?

If your SR drops more than two levels below your DR the DR are reset to same level.

 

[NevilleNobody]

Your DR rating have gone down too?

Yes reset. From 34000 to 15000. Extremely annoying.

It's too easy to move up and down SR, way too easy. In two races after the reset my SR went up from 21 to 48. To go from 99 to 21 in a handful of races is insane.
