It's not so bad on Nurb I don't think.. probably as players are more used to it than Monza.

Last time I drove there I got three different SR down alerts in the first corner alone when people where pushing cars against others :D

O wait. Are you only play Kyoto? Seems all other tracks are tight in the first or second turn. :)

No :lol: I just also don't like that track in general :D And I won't bother doing the endurance races until they fix the tire exploit.

Awww yes!
I love Nürburgring GP with Gr.4!
And the Gr.3 race is great too (if there weren't these cheating brats....)

What's your car of choice for Nurburgring? Last time I used GT by Citroen but I picked it for stability as it was a 10 lapper and I went no-pit.
 
I noticed a strange thing on Northern Isle yesterday... usually when you enter a BoP race or qualifying, when you select a car it tells you how the weight and power is adjusted, before you say OK and start qualifying/enter the race, but this was missing on yesterday's race. Sometimes I like to check what the balance will be adjusted to for different cars before starting qualifying, but yesterday it put me straight in when I selected the car.

Actually, I don't have a go-to car!
I just don't pick the FWD, that's my only rule :p

Favourites are the Gr.4 Viper, Mustang, Huracan, Ferrari, Aston, Porsche, GTR, Lancer and the Veyron :cheers:

The Cayman? Last time I used it, it was so horrendously slow compared to the others...
 
bmxmitch
It's slow (so is the Lancer), but fun! :)
I don't really care if I have the fastest car in the field. I just want to annoy all those M4/Megane drivers when I pass them with a car they don't even know exist. :p

:lol: fair enough. But you must at least want to be competitive though... on the back straight and the home straight, it's frustrating just being overtaken

Nahh, I see myself as the Alonso of GTS :p
 
I played Monza last night and tried my hardest to increase my SR (did not care about winning) from C to anything higher. After 3 races I realised every time I concede a place in order to not hit someone, the person behind will be an even worse of a driver and will do there very up most to pass me by any means possible which usually meant being knocked off the track. Honestly I ended up in 15 place purely due to avoiding accidents.

After holding my line which ended in unavoidable collisions I finished first (and I'm a below average driver) but lost my safety rating. Shows the quality of people in the races if I can win lol. Point being that with that track I think you can either try and win and lose a safety rating or just wave at everyone go by.

What does everyone have against Lago Maggiore GP. ..

Yeah Monza is rubbish for SR....

Re: Maggiore: I like Maggiore. It is easily one of my favourite tracks. However, as a 'Race C' tyre wear is involved, so people will be using the tyre-change pause menu bug, which is why people are showing dissatissfaction

Thanks to Monza I'm lower S safety now and so I'm getting matched with all sorts, the racing is dreadful, dirtier than Monza. A E/S driver just won because we were seconds quicker than anyone else and he punted me off on the first lap (without penalty), then fighting through I'm having cars three seconds a lap slower weaving all over to keep me behind and smashing into me after I pass them. :banghead:
 
Just finished the daily race GR4 Nurburgring GP. My first top 5 finish! :cheers: It could have been a step higher, but I was carrying a 3 second penalty. (That's what you get for not quite getting the chicane right before the final corner ).

Hey, I've seen you on the top 10 board often! Do you just do qualifying times and not race? I'm wondering as you are clearly fast but DR D.

Most of the time I do only qualifying times. I have done 5 races and won all of them xD.
