Haha sorry I disappeared suddenly
We just shared the track together. I was one of the red A's when you got the no red. I kept botching the last section before the finish line tonight. So feeling like I had had just about enough with my 8:00.xxx time I went back, and TT. I improved my tune to 7:53.5xx. Hopefully that helps a little. Good racing with you though.Ack, I blamed the wrong person tonight. A car turned in on me at the final section and bounced himself of then tapping my rear right bumper, 3 sec penalty, cost me 3 positions at the finish. Unfortunately I blamed the other Canadian after the race while checking the replay. The car hitting me had a big 8 on the side, the Canadian was in 8th position at that time, but not the car with door number 8 of courseI apologized by message after checking the replay again. One 8 is not the other 8 doh.
The Nordschleife was fun tonight. I'm so close to DR.A again, less than 800 DR to go. Racing is so much cleaner at night. There were still a few troublemakers yet those have gone to bed now. The last room I was in had only one neutral rating, rest blue. First time no red ratings this week. My best was a second place finish, first still 6 seconds away. Perhaps I'll qualify tomorrow and go for some victories. The only thing is, I have no experience driving the first section at full speed, always riding the brakes through there.
Oh well, it was just one 'no red' race. Next one had two red A's and a white one. SR.A is being let in again. Time to quit before it goes pinball again. This race already almost started as a disaster when the car behind me forced a 3 wide before even getting to the two turns before the start.
There are a lot of players this week enjoying testing themselves on Bathurst and the challenge of improving times in the dark with the Gr3 that are still not racing. I'm way behind you on times but mentioned yesterday that the biggest mistake I made this week was racing before I was ready. I'm really enjoying trying different cars and challenging myself. Can't imagine how drivers race this track at night in real life. Pure nuts!
If you go on qualifying rankings then click on top 10 stars, and they should have a replay button next to their time. click one of them and it should allow you to play or download the replay.

.I know this is OT and belongs in a wishlist thread, but, sure would be nice if there was a bring your own car circuit experience to learn these racks propper.
Yes. But if I want to get the technical second half of the N24 just right, I have to drive 4 minutes before I get there. In a circuit experience setup, I can try the section over and over, test different lines abd brake biases etc. Over and over without having to run the entire circuit. All this in any car, any tire would be great.@MikeV27: Ooooh, it's a long time since I had one of those days. Usually have to wait until midnight when the rest of the house is asleep before I can even log on. Enjoy!
@Kwame: Surely you can just do time trials in whatever car, track and conditions in order to replicate? Or do a custom race if you want to get a feel for picking the line in traffic, set tyre wear, fuel use etc? To be fair, the AI in Arcade Custom Mode brake check so much it actually is like playing Sport mode sometimes.
Mount Panorama is a bit like Fight Club. The first rule about Mount Panorama is we don't talk about Mount Panorama. The second rule of Mount Panorama is, if you are an Australian, you must race
