I hope for:
A: Miatas
B: Gr. 4
C: Gr. 3 (Gr2. should be bloody carnage here)
I like the reverse layout for Sardegna even more than the standard.
Next week will be a good one I suppose.
The current week is not working for me because daily A (wich was the better combo) seems totally unpopulated right now in top lobbies. Im being matched with players 3 or 4 secs slower than me per lap and that is killing the joy.

I think you are right with your predictions (Nebuc will tell me off again because karts only use SS!)
This week A is fun and I enjoy the racing but with no skin in the game the adrenaline just isn't there for me.
Next week I'm on the fence about.

It's not mostly the tracks it's the repeat combos that are killing us all. Sure use Sardegna x or Lago but with I dunno GTRs or clios or something other that one make GR metas
If it's gonna be single class racing don't hide it under the guise of GT (fake) racing classes.
Just say this week is the polo cup or whatever

I agree, they've really made a divisive call when they decided Race A should be DR-off. Am I the only one who can see that a race where you can only LOSE ranking doesn't make much sense?
My only tonic for the situation is to get my DR to where I feel is my 'genuine' place before I dive into these Dailies. Then I hold on and pray to the SR gods.
I still find them fun but I've had to turn off my urge to gain ranking (which is fine, I gave up on making credits so why not DR too?).

I don't use TC in dry circumstances only if you wanna save tires in a long event ,with TC i feel like it hold you down or better said less control ... personal ofcourse.
In this Daily C this car does not need TC it has good grip and downforce people just need to learn to deal with throttle control ...and use brakes wisely 😅

How many of you own a ps5? Durn, I wish I had the money to get it in 2021, I missed three and a half years of quick loading of the races/game modes. Well I can still qualify for the daily races but I can't enter the actual race, well at least I can have fun hot lapping with my friends/fellow drivers. I still want to sign back up for PS Plus before long. I'm looking forward to Dragon Trail too, just in time for the holidays.

I take it back gr3 cars aren’t suited to race B, or they might be on medium or soft tyres but on hards they are too slidy and everyone is just bouncing off each other and losing it due to not being able to trust the car to stick.
Gr4 cars here is a lot more fun
Got a few wins but this is not racing, this is a little too kamikaze for my liking, glad dragon tail will be gr4 (or hope)

I agree, I didn't find the Porsche RSR fast enough as I scored a lap of 1.48.242, I'll try to improve my time using another car. I'd rather use my own and just test random ones in the Gr. 3 class. I like Dragon Trail, well except for the annoying sausage curbs. You have to be careful around the turns that have them because it can upset the balance of the cars.

No, I'm genuinely curious what he meant.
This may be a shock to you, but I'm far from the only one "being such a bellend" to Chris.
But if this is what I get for leaving the Discord by my own choice, so be it.

Chris is a big boy and a virtual friend of mine but he can be very trying sometimes especially when trying to help him.

He should really see how the Time Trial Discussion has panned out in the past...
Classic Brockie poo.

I'm very aware of how Chris can be, but I also think nitpicking every little bit of phrasing that he uses is exhausting for everyone and unnecessarily drags things on even more.

So does constantly helping to improve with really measured and constructive help that is either bite sized or detailed. Bless him doesn't take the feedback on sometimes and can be extremely repetitive because of his nature, so reinforcing it is the way to make it stick.
We are all sensitive here and most of us can navigate the different types of friends we have have here and we talk to some different to others.
We are all supportive of each other but that can be strained sometimes when things don't click after the 20th time of saying them. We all like to think we have the patience of a saint but we don't.

I did Race A a few times, and it was quite fun, though I think my time could be a bit better. I think it's currently 2:05.7xx, and I definitely could see myself potentially shaving off at least a tenth or two. But at the same time, the races feel a bit short, y'know? Like I know it's three laps of the Watkins Glen Long Course but I personally would've had the race last just one more lap, since I'm also aware of the limited duration for Race A. Maybe I'll do a bit more qualifying and then try Race A a few more times today.

With the faster loading times you should be in a good place to get a few more practice laps in mate.
I did a few at Sardegna today and it's easier to manage the curbs in VR for controller users like you new to the DS5 and the pressure triggers I'd focus on avoiding them but cutting as close as you can to them. Remember braking early gives you options, braking late gives you no options.
