I think I will try some races, if the tirewear bug is fixed :)

It's not yet but even if someone does it, they won't beat you when you're at least two seconds a lap quicker than the guys you'll likely race against. Until you improve your driver score of course and get matched with people "only" one second a lap slower. :lol:

The last daily race I have done, I raced against A/S people and my rating was only E/S at that point. xD
 
I'll say that recently ive gotten more into hotlapping myself though. Before i would do no more then half an hour to an hour and then go off racing. But lately i've been having some fun just trying hard to get on the top10 boards, especially now i am starting to make it every now and then.

Yes they are the lower S safety rating people, it's unlikely a top player will drop here but does happen very rarely. I raced earlier at this level (thanks to the carnage at Monza yesterday), I was the fastest at 1'55.5, I wouldn't expect much quicker drivers than that but you never know.

When you are S/A for driver rating and have 99 safety rating you don't match lower than B driver rating drivers but if your safety rating drops to barely being S you can face, S,A,B,C,D and E rated drivers all in the same race.

Ah, that explains a lot. I found it just weird that I already matched with these guys.

The game ranks Sportsmanship before Driver level, so until you do some more races you will be matched all over the places. With only 5 races the game can't determine how good you are :)

Edit: in fact, it doesn't even start ranking you until over 5 days
 
How long have you been playing? What levels are you?

Been playing GTS since about 2 weeks after it's release (Day One Edition). Some time before that GT4. I've only recently started the online races. In campaign mode you can be a bully since the AI has got be be a SRE ;). In sport mode there are real people at the other end and i didn't want to ruin anyone else's fun.

Currently i'm DRD SRS. My last daily was a 10 lap GR3 at Autodromo De Interlagos. Qualified 10th, got spun and ended up in the kitty litter by someone drifting into me coming out of a corner. Rejoined the track in 17th and finished 9th. I don't believe anyone deliberately knocked me off the track, but even on a grid made up entirely of SRS, when the driver rating is all D's, there's bound to be people swapping paint :rolleyes:.

Do more dailies but avoid them on weekends!
 
After a small adjustment to the brake bais, I managed a 54,038. Made a little mistake in the last sector, so still pushing for that 53,9. :D

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
That is very disappointing that there is glitch. I was wondering why the guy in 1st let off the gas and let me pass in the beginning of the race PD needs to fix this asap!!!!
 
Here, if someone is interested in my smallness




Driving under pressure, must be good...


Update:

What a mess!
I had pole and FL, but finished 13th...

When some hosts canceled the race because of they were not in top position.......... or even kicked out other players.... just race against AI then.:confused:
 
Two races at Monza yesterday, pole for both, punted at the first chicane for both. First race only myself and one other pitted, second one only I pitted, gave up at this point, hope this gets fixed soon :(
