Honestly i don't know why, always i come to A as DR, the Race getting dirty. Yesterday on Dragon Trail, which is my favorite course, on the Veyron where i do my best Lap Time, it was the most Dirty race since Month. With all the wanna be Aliens, its totally senseless to play. Why the aliens can´t do a overtake without a contact. Please explain this? After 6 Races i was so angry about the A and A+ drivers that i quit at least 3 Races. Before i get a reset i had to change to Maggiore, in DR B, and in there it was again super racing.

For me i have to say, the PENALTY system need much more stronger, until people understand how to overtake, and when it´s time to LET SPACE.

Yesterday i was really ****ed up again. And if this coming again, i will post ANY situation here to clarify who was done the mistake.

I wish you another nice GT SPORT weekend, and greets to the Alien´s DON`T CONTACT ME WHEN YOU OVERTAKE AND LET SPACE WHEN YOU DO A MISTAKE

Funny, I jumped in the Clio, navigated the chicane and thought, "heck no!". Jumped out and back in to Gr. 4. :lol:

I'm surprised. After watching your laps in the Evo I figured you had that track pretty much nailed.

Well, second race for the night for me. I tried 5 cars and just couldn't quite manage to beat the NSX. Qualified P7 in a gird of DR/Cs and Ds.. finally :bowdown:!
Race starts and I manage to survive T1 and defend my line. Got rear ended but not hard enough to knock me off. I'm still struggling with the esses at T1, but managed to survive it at a crawl. Messed up the next corner and track limits are so tight I was gifted a 3s penalty for having 2 wheels on the green on the outside :crazy:.

I was being hounded for the rest of the race with a 0.5s gap, got to the same corner again and no mater how much I braked or turned I went wide and my penalty was up to 8s. I pulled over and dropped my penalty to 3s and finished P8. There was a load of red dots next to peoples names that race :scared:.

SR up to 97, and DR up a hair. I now have 108 DR to spend before the trip home. Another day in DR/C :D.
 
Its funny (actually, not really) how one angry driver can ruin your whole SR rating.
I finally made it back to SR99 today, until this one guy, lets call him Verstapnussen, ruined mine and a few others race. He got kicked from the race in round 3, but I ended up with 16 secs and last (I did rage quit this one) and 2 others with similar results....
Now slowly crawling back up. :grumpy:

Its just a shame that one bad race, even if its not your fault, takes 10 clean races to get back your SR rating. Maybe even more than 10 clean ones :sick:

The main problem - as I see - is not the long way to climb back, but the false judgements to fall down so unfairly deep because of others’ behaviour.
This is what renders the whole p.system faulty. In general.
 
Mystery solved with the now 1:34.4 time at Daily Race C. It looks like a repeat of the grip bug that affected this car in the FIA race back in March. He has absolutely zero wheelspin, and I'm guessing the B/C drivers in the 38s have it as well. Thankfully it only impacts hotlapping as he was miles off the pace in race I was in.

Yep, if it takes 10 super clean races for a troll to get back to SR-S he will eventually be deterred through boredom. That's good!
However, if someone else, through poor driving, or worse - deliberate behaviour can knock me down to SR-A or even once SR-B then THAT deters me from bothering to play the damn game.

Could you possibly give more information on how you determined this?

How come I never get these bugs? My lap was full of wheelspin, and 12 seconds slower......:lol:

To put it simple.
Just watch his lap and mine (for example comparing our grip etc) then you should know it :)

From the replay he's able to floor it high up in second gear with zero rear traction loss. You try doing that normally :lol:

I had the same thing back in March for the Nations Cup. I went from 37s in practice on RH to mid 43s in quali/race.

I'm not home, which is why I was asking.

That's very weird that it only happens in qually. Was the user in question also an abuser of the original grip bug?

Don't think so. I think this bug is linked to the physics change they made on this car the update after it came out. They 'addressed' the issues people had on RSS tyres. This Online Time Trial issue didn't come up in the Interlagos FIA event which was held before that update.

This is why PD have to ignore people who slap RSS tyres onto everything :lol:

Do we know if the users are doing something to create that grip bug, or are they simply exploiting what they've been given?
 
Tried the little indycar, the heck is up with 2nd to 3rd shifting, feels like throwing a brick to the front of the car, sounds like it too:lol:
Figured why everyone is saying stay in 3rd lol.

It doesn't take 10 though. With the right daily C you can go from SR.E to SR.S in 3 races. The bigger problem is a fast dirty driver gets 'rewarded' with pole position for dropping to SR.A or SR.B and is pretty much guaranteed to regain SR plus an easy win.

I wish it would take 10 super clean races to climb back up, like trying to climb back up on a Monza daily B race in GR.1 starting mid pack. Unfortunately it is super easy to increase SR with the right race. I doubt the deliberate dirty drivers even care about getting back to SR.S, just happen to end up there by an incompetent SR system that awards points for staying on the road, not for making clean passes or behaving on the track.

It's the Clio itself. Too much wheel spin with TCS 0, I didn't want to deal with potential carnage. The little MiTo, Gti, Focus and Megane felt better to me.

Just had a hilarious race C, started 06 and T1 just went on the left side and waited, 10 people flew out, literally.

Got chain bumped in T2 tho, instant orange sr, people flying of left and right.

3 laps later and I'm 5th, last turn I forget that wheels are wider than nose, hit the barrier to the right, 3s.:D

End up p16, but I figure tyres are wearing off like mad, so I just cruise it off and overtake iceskaters. Finished 8th :lol:
What a carnage, but loads of fun, didn't gain or lose sr tho.

Anyone tried pitting and ending up in top 5?

Edit:
Race 2, mix of B,C and D down to sr C after getting punted out in t2 and t4.

I got hit so hard at t4 that my car flew up and over the entire turn, orange SR and 4s..
People have no control whatsoever. Lost 8Sr from that one contact.
I give up.

How do you know when someone has been kicked out of the room instead of of just quitting the race.
Click to expand...
AFAIK, there are 3 ways to leave a daily race room:
- Disconnected
- Rage quit
- Too much penalties not served resulting to a kick from the server.

I assume that we can't make the difference between those 3. Only the driver himself can know what happened.

So apparently I'm on a six race consecutive clean race streak. All from races at Interlagos... do... do I sacrifice my Dr and try to go for it?

Brave idea, but if you managed 6 already, go on.
My only race today was there, lost 9 SR points by being bumped from behind (not a big one, not worth any penalty, the 10s for the opponent is a joke - and I say it, the one been bumped) and going a little wide (!) once at T4. That’s how easy to go back to 90 SR.

Only once in nearly 3000 races have I matched my 16 clean race streak without 'gaming' it, so good luck!

Tip: If you really want the achievement, and you're sure you screwed it up, quit the race before the end and you keep the clean race streak. I wish I had known that when I was going for it and got burned after a 10 and 12 clean streak.

So the guy who's done a 35.8 in the F1500? Jumped him at the start, pulled a 1 second lead in 6 corners and he tried to kill me at the hairpin and missed. His fastest race lap was a 45.6.

That leaderboard time 100% legit :lol:

Yep, definitely a bug. Not even and alien could do that time on regular grip levels.

This is better because some of the time periods between races were too short.

I only did the F1500T-A daily race yesterday but it wasn't a frustrating one. However, it was a very tiring one because the car is such a pain to drive. I got off to a great start and got to first by the first corner, and pretty much stayed there until I had to sacrifice it due to a penalty. The guy who qualified first got up to me before he pitted, and I chose to stay out because I wasn't going to beat him on pace. He was 2 seconds faster a lap than me. If it wasn't for that penalty I would've won the race. However I only finished 0.304 behind after serving the penalty.
