With the mess that is race C, I decided to do some hotlapping of the Nordschleife to properly get to grips with it and I've gotta say this Porsche is more understeery than I was expecting, it's probably cos I'm used to the race cars but still didn't expect it to be this much. Nonetheless I'm enjoying driving it.
 
Nobody ran out of fuel while stuck in auto-drive?

Fuel is not a problem. Patience is.

4 drivers finished in the race I did. Weird bug. Race says rolling start but for a brief second you have control from a standstill then autopilot for 13 tedious laps.
 
A dominant autodrive if I do say so myself :D

For some reason when the cars dropped to 7 or so left, the autodrive picked up its pace. I noticed this and turned up the fuel map. The trailing cars ran out on the 2nd last lap and I had more than 1 minute lead by the end.

Fastest Lap, Clean Race, Pole Position...the clean sweep :P

Oh you are the winner from that race :lol:
for some reason 2 and 3 get their fuel empty and holding back everybody :lol:
 
No auto-drive problems when I did the race, though aside from lap 9 where I pushed for fastest lap it pretty much felt like an auto-drive to the victory. Kind of boring, but I'll take a 20 minute cruise over getting punted on lap 1 any day of the week.
 
One make race? Better put BoP on :odd:
Funny. I've been doing that with the 911s in Custom Race. Only because I've tuned mine. So, makes power and weight even. Suspension and gearing, really didn't matter in the Custom Races I've had.

If people have not tried the 997, please practice, a lot... before joining Race B. I haven't stopped driving them all weekend. So many players flying off the track.
 
Race A just threw my SR through the window. In 1 one race, it managed to go from SR S (97) to SR B (61).

Why?

Because i got punted in the rear on the end of the straight of Fuji because a guy forgot his braking point. Got 6 seconds penalty, served it right away. And got my SR downgraded. Wtf?
 
Well, the player in 4th went in too hot on thd final straight and things kinda went my way instead...

One more and I'll check out Race A.
 
I just watched the Top 10 replay to see what I'm doing wrong

OF COURSE they have to cut the dunlop chicane and go wide on the last corner. Degenerates.
 
Dauble-weapon from Japan has done a 7:28.340 around the Ring.

Someone in the Asia region, please upload a replay of that lap, I need to find 10 seconds :lol:
 
I wish last week's Race C on Tsukuba was the typical weekly one make race. I only did 4 of them but they were all very fun and competitive, lots of wheel to wheel racing between 3-4 cars for 17 laps. I think the longer length helps with people not trying to win in turn 1. Lots of time to recover from incidents and the tire wear adds some strategy.
