Well this is weird!!! Entered Race A twice, full throttle on the start line, no handbrake on and I go no where!!! Got booted out for not moving :confused: Went from Manual to auto but still stuck.
Tried the reverse gear and nothing.
:scared::scared::scared:
Will try again later 🤷‍♂️
 
Tried 3 Kyoto races without setting a time.
P15 => P14 (I was P8 but got tapped out of the downhill chicane on the last lap)
P15 => P9
P16 => P11

Fun way of racing. You can never catch the leaders in such a short race (besides I'm a full second off pace), but you are having some tight midfield battling.
 
Today played all the three races.

Race A - As someone out here rightly said so, there are most of the times those racers who just want to keep crashing. I only played this race once since morning.

Race B - Kyoto is good. The racers there are better but still encountered a few dirty drivers here & there. I may play this race once in a while.

Race C - Again a banger of a race (like the previous week's race). My first race with the 911 RSR (991) '17 I started on M. When I pitted on lap 7, I changed to M again no knowing H was compulsory. Because of the added grip on the M tyre, I was able to build enough of a lead that I pitted the second time on at the end of lap 12 to go for H. It was a very satisfying but unexpected win.

I just am playing Race C since afternoon. I love the concept of having to use another variant tyre which then makes it interesting strategy for everyone. Most start on M but a few do start on H is what I've seen. My last race, I won because three cars ahead of me all went wide or made a mistake on lap 1 which gave me the lead. I kept to myself and drove a few laps on M to get a 17 second lead before pitting for H. The racer who took the lead had to pit & did pit two laps before the end but on H which gave him little grip to catch me. He had rejoined 5 seconds behind me on lap 12.

I won't be touching Race A at all, Race B is ok for a change but Race C is my poison. I love Dragon Trail as a circuit as well & it's so much fun to drive the 911 '17 car.

Have you tried lifting and re-smashing the throttle? It's happened to me before and that does the trick. Otherwise it feels like you're launching a drag car on a clutch that's already burned down to the rivets.😁

Did a full reboot of PS5, controllers and the TM wheel. All is now good in the hood and just won my 1st Race A 🥳

Well, my week has come to a premature ending, I was tightening my wheel stand pro and the bolt snapped, I seem to go through a few of those 😁

Probably could do with a break anyhow (said the missus 😂)

Awww, that's too bad. I hope you can find the necessary parts for fixing your wheel and stand. You don't have the controller? Or do you just do better with the wheel? Have a good productive week, @brockie

I turned 34 last Tuesday.

Here's this weeks guide for those interested! Guarenteed racing to be had this week which is always nice and its nice to see bluemoon bay!

Very unique guide, I enjoyed watching the Kyoto part though. This can help a lot of lower-skilled players looking to improve their lap time. There are some very tricky corners there at the longer track. Take care and enjoy your Monday.
 
Well the good news is a managed a bodge to get the stand firmed up again and semi working, but I am going to need to sort a new one, so the hunt begins 😁

Think I’m going to persevere with Kyoto this week, race A seems dangerous grounds to keep the DR up
