I generally put my driver name on liveries and post here about my races, more to ensure I don’t drive like a jerk

It seems like you've concealed it well. I haven't a clue what your PSN name is.

I’d like to know why it’s always LMC, why can’t we have Miyabi sometimes too?

Miyabi would be fun. Bump filled, likely, but fun.

I keep a low profile...I’ll pm...

Yeah most likely, LMC is the same way though, so at least it would be getting bumped at a different track.

Race B this week is so boring, I’ve done two now. One in a Lambo and one in a 4c, Lambo was more fun but the 4c is faster, still a boring race though. Gonna try A now.

Race B: Gr.3 - Interlagos
Race C: Gr.4 - Red Bull Ring

followed by:

Race A: N300 One Make - Tsukuba
Race B: Gr.4 - Suzuka
Race C: Gr.3 - Nurburgring 24h

Edit: Jk

Not seeing that on KP. What's your source?

So looking forward to the mini again...not

The Mini at Suzuka east was fun though.

No race A for you?

 

[suprajef]

Your @Pigems idea of fun is not the same as mine.

@sturk0167 last time people were cheating, so probably not, also not fun

 

[Tou2istTrophy]

Just kidding ^ but it wouldn’t be surprising.

No problem. Maybe we'll catch you at Nordschleife, next week.

Seems like i'm unable to enter the dailies tonight ... "Server's not responding". Internet connection seems to be fine on my end.

Just when I was able to shave off a good chunk off my quali time on race C...from 1:33:xxx to 1:31:xxx which is huge for me ! ....grrrrr .....

 

[sturk0167]

I'm loving this alt account. Some "S" idiot just put me into the wall at race A, not knowing that I'd prefer to have a lower SR. He ended up expressing his unhappiness with the ramifications, in the post-race. I simply responded with "you reap what you sow".

 

[suprajef]

Not likely, I will be sitting in between turn 2 and turn 3 at the 12 hours of sebring

Race C is nuts too, by the time I crossed the line I was getting the “next contact you will be disqualified” message, wow.

The problem PD has is they repeat a lot of their races. Their races also don't take much skill. Plus they allow cheating and have done nothing about it.

Edit, IE no one cheated on big willow, go figure, add walls and hey I can brake without braking...

 

[K3Tuning]

People got dirty at Willow, pita was if they tag you good you go off, they stay on, get your car all dirty and good chance get reset to the track and the Stang was a slug from a stand still.

 

[Dairyworker]

Race A is a **** fest right now.... i have honestly not had any problems there all week and, i done a few dozen races through the week. Two races tonight and the "fast" guys are running no tc and losing it under pressure and causing big pileups. One more and I'll call it a night, this kinda thing aint my bag baby

I am talking about qualifying for the race, I should have been more specific. I love clean racing. I have been done dirty where it bit me and I got reset and I remember that person forever. Not the same thing especially for those that have raced with me...

Ahhh gotcha, yeah Willow can't really take short cuts or go wide on run off eh lololol

Well back in the day on big willow they did cheat, but PD fixed it. I am not sure why they don't with the new tracks now

 

[Lazybike]

It's been said hundreds of times... 7 days of the same 3 races is too long, PD can I have daily races back please.

 

[GTP_TO Blue]

Is an alt account just an opportunity to bash?
I dunno just askin.

Not for me, it's just about trying out different levels of driving

One of the reasons I don't go anywhere near an online race from late Friday to early Monday morning.

Weekends are just too manic and destroy all the good work you've done over a period of time, only to set you back 30 days of effort when all you're trying to do is race clean and finish well.

 

[TimBoss351]

FUGU Z for the N300 car next week maybe? I think it was a relatively recent addition and every once in a while PD seems to like to highlight recent adds.

Maybe some miata’s on race A? Who doesn’t love spec Miata racing...

Glad to know I’m not the only one who cannot figure out Bathurst, no matter how hard I try... going back about three generations of GT, not just GTS, I just can’t figure that stupid mountain out

It’s so funny how we are all different with likes and dislikes. I love Bathurst. Love North Nurburgring. Love Le Sarthe. Love Group 1-3 the best.

Not that I’m great at them, mind you. But I love racing them.

 

[Dogwolf77]

22 laps Mount Panorama GR.3 on the hour, 24 cars on track, with at least 2 pits, sign me up. 22 should be about 46 to 50 minutes including pits and is not easily divisible by 3 or 4 ensuring different pit strategies.

Nurb 24h 5 laps GR.1 on the hour with 1 or 2 pit stops. One with fuel saving, 2 if you want to go flat out.

Sarthe 13 laps GR.1 with 2 stops.

Man, I like the sound of that. Especially 24 cars deep. There’s room for tiny errors, changing strategies mid-flight, and possibly less aggressive driving in the first 2 laps or unnecessary risk taking .
Sign me up as well!

 

[TTM]

I’ve just done some races in race A.
Fun car that Z8 is.
I can hear the tyres squel, and that let’s me know I don’t need to turn the wheel anymore, heh.

 

[adrian brown]

You can set a qualifying time in race C on mediums????????

Embarrassingly I didn't know this - it's only been 4 weeks since I started entering the race Cs.... Its been nice this morning not starting in 16th place!

Yes, in any race that allows a choice of tires you can Qualify on any of the compounds.

 

[Gersicer]

I tried to log in the dailies last night .... while i was getting the "no response" from the server a few times it finally seemed to log in and i had access to race c. Everything went fine until i kinda got the page with the grid but it was just an empty page .... And the game froze right there. I had to restart.

Now that we have access back to the Dr/sr stats this morning ... I find out that this little "glitch moment" of the game registered in my stats ..... - 857 Dr .... - 5 Sr ...... Really ???
