I was in a couple of races with you this morning!
The only way for consistency is to keep racing. Don’t (rage) quit! Get yourself back on the track and keep racing. Even if you find yourself last (happened to me this morning), just keep going. At minimum, you get to practice some more......

I’ll see you on the track!

Thanks for support lol, quit after I braked late on turn one and punted someone hard.

guess shame quit is more fitting!
 
Did some Race B quali.. Wow im inconistant in FF cars. Set a 2.05.4 but next lap could be 2sec slower. Feels like im driving in my teenage 90s hot hatch, understeer and wheel spin, where is the fun if the rear dont step out?

Other choices that arnt FF and can keep up?

We ran this in the weekend as a FIA, In my race there where and SLS on pole, followed by a Scirocco, then me in a Mustang. Outran many FF.
 
Been seeing a few videos where in the dailies you see the vehicle models of your opponents instead of their nicknames (in the pane on the left side of the screen) - how is this possible ? went through the options but wasn't able to find it - what am I missing?

It’s in the pause menu options, you can either have car names or people names there. 👍
 
For Race B, I might test out the Genesis Gr.4, if only to see how well the buffs treated it, and because it's arguably the Gr.4 car I'm most familiar with. But from what I can see, should I perhaps use the TT or RCZ instead? And for Race C, was the '16 GT-R still overly popular?
 
Tested the autopolis gr2. Finally the nicely balanced lexus is also fast :lol:
Nismo was understeering soooo bad.
Also nsx felt that its front grip was not as good as it used to be. After these two, was just going to shut down the ps and said good by to dailys.
Then remembered the bop changes anb tested the lexus :cheers:
1:37.6 so not like alien speed, but I was 0.1 sec faster than nsx with it.
Lexus used to be .6 slower before.
So if old metas in gr2 feels odd, try the lexus :lol:

Which Lexus? '08?
 
Man race a time trials are super fun but it’s hard to like get a good time. I was sawing at the wheel like mad trying to balance that car.
B race is gr4 there? Bahaha destruction derby awaits.
C race is a great combination. Really all these combos are solid, but if you like sr maybe a good week for the ‘I don’t care’ acct.
Was so excited to see race A then saw streets version...It’s fun to drive, racing will be dicey tho with cars drifting everywhere...

I know the Huracan can do decent 2.05s but that’s about it
 


The next race, I started 3rd and finished 2nd. Warned two GTP members about divebombers from the last race. The white TT was in that race, but us three at the front, left them behind.

Lexus was -16 model. Did not test the older.
Had to go back and try the honda again.
It seems that it needed just more smoother aproach to be quick.
So nice and smooth BB-5
1:37.123 losing time on those hairpins.
And last turn os somewhat a mystery to me. :lol:



Im sure that I could get that lexus time better also, with similar smooth driving.:cheers: Always liked the way it drives. It was just bit too slow.

Been analysing my driving lately, and I always seem to push the car too much.
Bad habits are hard to shake :D
 
Yup. Probably going to spend an unhealthy amount of time on A's time trial...

Not a single track or car combination that i can find fun with.. i guess my best chance is to get to DR D and try the GR-1 at Spa.. but i suck at GR1, to fast, to furious.. maybe next week
