Not exactly. He has a faster Q time with his Turismo-Rodrigo account. On his other account he was losing. I actually passed him twice in consecutive races. He seems to have trouble with turn 2. I'll put up a video after the next race.
 
What if after a race, if you or another person is responsible for ruining another's race, the crowd booed or if it's really bad a guy comes across and tackles.... OK kidding about the last part but the booing would at least shame the offender a bit and let them know if they weren't aware of it to watch it on replay.
 
I realize after compiling this that many of my races are boring...Anyhow here’s the last of my daily race clips put together. If anyone watches this they will find an Easter Egg. I put that in there for @Pigems. Last clips kinda long but It’s got a couple cool moments. For a non alien I felt I did good there. It’s kinda fun to look at older stuff. You kinda see that over time you get a bit more seasoned...Ive had so much fun playing this. Names have been eliminated to protect the innocent!

I've heard that they ask you three questions before they consider you:
1. What is your name?
2. What is your quest?
3. What is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow?

*Opens mouth........closes mouth*...... mutters "thou shalt not take the easy ones... thou shalt not take the easy ones..."
 
I'm going to start a lobby for next weeks Daily Race B at Red Bull Ring with sport settings in a few minutes. once the lobby fills up i do 5 mins between races. anyone is free to join. its called * Next Week Daily Race B * 5 Laps * Sport Settings * RedBull Ring *

i need to get comfortable with Gr3s there before it hits sport mode. wasnt doing so hot this morning.
 
Wow, it's difficult to get back into these daily races... I haven't touched GT Sport for at least two weeks, and it showed from the start. I was last in the Huracan Group 4 at Tokyo Expressway, and my next race on Suzuka was quite a test. I was 11th and really, really struggled towards the end of it. I did another race but it was just horrible and I quit; mainly because I wanted a few minutes extra practice. In the next race I finished a respectable 4th after fending off a hard-charging Lexus. I was in third at one point but I couldn't hold the pace to stay there. It's tiring to drive the Super GT cars.
 
Didn't do a lot of racing this week, and what I did was mostly from the back. Once again, I spaced out and finished a Q lap in warm up on my alt account, and blew my chance to race from the back. I ruined the C race last night, and the B race today.
The up side is that my final race of the week at Suzuka was a 3 star win. Second on the grid was a high 48 to my 48.7. There were 4 more guys in the 49's. I got away clean and drove pretty well (for me). Had a 15.5 second lead on L5 when I pitted. No major mistakes, which is rare lol. Anyway, I finished 20 seconds clear with a time of 19:01.2. Definitely my fastest overall time this week. Nice way to finish up.
 
Finally hit D/R A :D
Screenshot taken, now I can start having fun again and watching my D/R slide back down :lol:

Im in 11.8 so cant really give advice. I think you lose time in the first turn. I brake while jumping toward the inside curb, release the gas, and then i accelerate as soon as i can see the outside curb. I would also shift later to the 4th gear, just before hitting the curb at 31s of the lap. The rest i think you do faster than me.

Also, all top times are using the grass more than you do.
For the first and third 3> 4th shifting , i do it precisely at 111or 112kph.

At the S after T1 let your 2 tyres go on the grass and the other 2 on the kerb this way you can olmost take the S bend by going straight. This will give you some extra momentum You can take T3 with some higher speed. Going on the kerb is the perfect way to take this turn but watch out to don’t overdo it or else you will get on the grass and spin out.

Are there requirements for getting onto the Turismo team? Like speed/wins or something like that, or some sort of status that needs to be maintained like A+? Or is it just an invite only thing?

not same guy ? Turismo Rodrigo and turismo jara are jara70
 
F1500 sold. Worse purschase for a "race" I've ever made.

Race B is fine, but my car just started sliding in the braking area. Just would not pull up. Did that for a full lap. I got a penalty for the finally corner curb. 3/4 of the last lap, the car felt better. Not perfect like the first two laps, but better than that slip n' slide action.
 
I think my week will exist out of race B. Not sure about the F1500 tho and didn’t check out yet which N100 car is being used for race A. Anybody?
 
Now that I've slipped to A/A(thanks Race C), two players tried to smash me into one of the walls at the tight ess under the overpass. One got 3 seconds.

My lead was getting cut down 3/4 into the last lap. 2nd was gaining and down the straight I weaved all the way. Finish line coming up and I weaved just enough to cross .2 in front.

So 5 months ago i rage quit playing GTSport, but im bored of other games now. A quick browse of this forum and its not looking good, with the same complaints of a bad penalty system and seriously dirty drivers floating around. A couple of quick questions. 1. i played race A last night and my clutch and shifter had no effect, have they modified this for everyone now to disable the advantage in shifting manual users had? and 2. has the slowdown penalty area actually improved racing? and 3. the only race that appeals to me this week is race B, have the Red Bull Ring track limits been fixed?

I gave the pole sitter mad room all race and he/she was slip sliding everywhere. Had fair place exchanges until he/she started the love taps.

Last lap, I'm along side with the AMG having a slight overlap, I slowed a bit and he/she gave me no room like I did whole race. Got tapped by me, lost control, I slowed for the car to gather itself, I guess not having TCS on spun the car into the wall. I didn't get a penalty and just kept driving. Oh well.
