16th victory and 2nd today, this is unheard of for me!
 
I just witnessed the dirtiest move I have seen in a while

A/S pit manoever.

I already had 5 sec from a 1 bar connection in T1, this wreck added another 10 sec and I had to drop to last place.
Tokyo is rough, however I got 4 wins so far when I don't get screwed in T1. SR is currently down to A though, driving with the A/A crowd atm.

As a Safety Rating i would say the SR rating is kind a broken right now, i consider myself a SR 99, but 3 races made me a SR 70 driver because sometimes you simply cannot avoid the chaos. I would rather have SR reflect the intended* harm i do onto other drivers and then let the ingame penalty system handle all the other stuff like leaving the track and on track accidents..

*a very tough job for the game, i know..
 
Some really dismal Daily Races popped up yesterday, so I didn't even bother. I want a Group 2 race now! Not one makes for crying out loud...
 
Some ask, after update how much penalty (bumping bumper) will crush your DR points?

Need some clear number, cause I get high number finish but DR goes down since somebody spin and I cant avoid his car and hit him.

It's very broken

I got 5 sec penalty and a red rating after the race for this. The other car, nothing, blue rating.

I'm ahead at corner entry, yet car 1 still has a right to be there and doesn't concede so I give him room. A lot of room since I'm afraid to get a pnalty if he goes wide. Mr opportunity dives in to use me as a guard rail and pushes me into the wall. Why do I get a penalty for this??? I'm DR.A, the car hitting me was DR.B. He hit the other DR.A driver in 1st place as well, and won since first place had to serve a penalty.

Next race the game crashed on match making, then I had a win despite another B/S driver bumping me 5 times, then disconnected again while matchmaking. This game has come a long way since release...
 
I don't know if this is the right thread to ask but here goes.
I don't do many sport races but to day I did one. I got a penalty on the last corner but I can't figure out why.
I was trying to give the other guy room and then he came towards me with the wall on the other side.

I made a video of the last lap in which it occurred.



Can someone explain what I did wrong here?


You touched him. Unfortunately the game is oversensatuve
 
Tsukaba was alright. I did 3 races before I got bored with it. I needed to get some SR back from racing on Tokyo, daily C is always good for that. First race I already got back to SR.S from 65, 21 points for a clean race. Second race back at 99. I won the first one (only a few DR.A there), second place in the second one, and 8th in the last with some real competition.

In the last race I lost 2 places in this odd incident.

The car behind me bumps me into the car in front of me, he stalls and gets hit by the car behind him. 4 car snooker.

I still had a penalty from earlier evading a reckless track re-entry. I evaded that car yet bumped another car in the corner as a result and got 5 sec penalty even though positions remained unchanged. Having that penalty might explain what happened next

The two cars behind me drive through me as if I'm not there! On examination of the video my penalty counter goes down a bit after getting slowed down from the bump. I guess that temporarily ghosted me and the two behind took their chance while I'm checking the radar to see what's happening on my outside before punching the gas. At least I didn't get a penalty for this.
 
Did 2 races on Tsukuba...don't know what to think - the one race was clean and alright, the other was a disaster, started 2nd and the 3rd guy tried to overtake me in the first corner with a divebomb and spun me... starting to think that the slower cars (N200-N300) are not a good idea for people who are used to GR3/4 simply because they lack BHP and people don't know how to overtake ... (DR A / SR S)

Anyway, the E30 is a really fun car to drive - I'm really impressed - the next thing is to get the Mercedes-Benz E190 Evo so that the E30 would have a nice competition in its year/class :)
 
Just did Race B, and it wasn't too bad. Didn't have time to qualify, so started dead last. Ended up 7th, with a clean bonus. Miracles can happen :)
Just did race b as well, and had a fun race with @tofuhero and @Sofia Speed! I was able to snitch Top 1 on the leaderboards and then managed to outpace myself on the race itself :lol:
I need to trust myself more on Lagos :lol:
