The line between SR up and SR down is no thicker than a razor's edge. I hold the line. Race B at Tsundere. My effort for putting in what I thought was a good time got me P14. The only reason it wasn't P15 (last place) was because the DR/B in p15 didn't qualify. Nearly half the grid was DR/B, with a sad little alien all by himself on P1. There were a few DR/Cs and 3 DR/Ds. 
Auto drive drops us on the final corner exit and it's on like Donkey Kong! The usual mad dash for crash at the first corner and it was messy. The DR/B behind me did what DR/Bs typically do and ploughed up the inside, then slowed to a snails pace, pushing me out in the process. The gift that keeps on giving, an orange SR and a 2s penalty
. I can't take that line without going too wide on the exit. Maybe with the RSR. I can steer with the throttle. RSR's seemed to be the weapon of choice for my race. I went with the 4C because it's well suited to short tracks.
I had the little 4C fanging round the track, but it was tight with cars everywhere. I managed to keep things mostly on the track, but getting pushed off ruined a chance for a clean race bonus. Finally crossed the line with a dunce cap flashing, but I was more than 2s ahead of the guy behind. And the finish?
The end was full of surprises. On Race B's it's hard to gain SR once you get that orange SR, but somehow I managed to go up 2. I hadn't looked at the screen when the race was done, just exited. When I looked at my stats I was expecting DR to drop from being in the bottom half. All those Bs and Cs worked to my advantage in this case, and discovered it went UP with a 2k bonus
. Welcome to DR/C, we hope you enjoy your visit
