@Stringerbell helluva lap mate, you are my leaderboard king this week 🤣 going to back to A to repair some DR
Thank you mate, RBR seems to suit me and I do enjoy hot lapping round there as well.
Don't you love it when you ruin a great race. Final race for the week, By the pit stops there were three of us 10 seconds clear of the pack and circulating considerably faster. I was shuffled back to 7th early due to the usual barging at T3 but was now in a real fight. I was driving very hard, eeking away from the guy in 3rd and ever so slightly catching the Alfa out front. This was set up for a classic finish, I had a very strong lap 9 and proceeded to bin it at the final corner dammit.
Eiddddddiot.
urrgghhh, brutal that, I've been there a couple of times at RBR - binned it in T3 two races in a row when I was in the podium places on last lap, burns doesn't it
On another note improved my time at Fuji

That's some great going there mate!!!! inside the global top 70!!!!
I thought you might have a good go this weekend 🤣
I’m really not feeling any of it this week anymore, won’t be doing 18 laps of Catalunya and tbh can’t be bothered with 13 laps of Austria, let alone 4 laps of Fiji
Worst week ever 🤣
I was thinking about doing catalunya - did some practice laps last night, think I might actually enter on my alt account so if I get rammed or bin it I can just quit the race and not care
.If you survive Turn 3 and 4 on lap 1, Race C is pretty dang good. I like the longer races with a little strat/wear, not too extreme but enough to make it interesting, i like playing the long game.
I've really enjoyed 70% of my racing at RBR this week, been the usual frustration but it's been fun a week all in all.
You're right, the longer races are definitely more fun and interesting. I really like the fact that if you get punted or make a mistake then you have the time to make up a bunch of places and your race isn't ruined.
I can't wait for this horrible week to be over. In the end I stayed with High Speed Ring. I still think it's the worst race ever, combined with these absurd penalties. After the long sweeping corner you suddenly hit a car that's sitting in the middle of the road and you get 1 to 5 seconds penalty, not the guys who repeatedly bumped each other before the corner to gain one meaningless position.
Someone puts you in the wall? No problem, YOU get 0.5 to 1 sec.
I do my best to stay away from trouble, but I always get at least 2 penalties per race.
It took me 5 days to go back to S SR, after getting knocked down to C. Every race has been a nightmare. Every single player acts like a 5 year old.
There's no way for PD to get this kind of feedback (they only care about wall riding because they saw the leaderboards). So things with these penalties will never change.
haha it's nearly done mate!!! we just need our Hungarian oracle to look into the future and post next weeks dailies so we can get excited about what's to come.
Tidgey agrees with the week being garbage, just watched a video of him moving over to LMU for the week.
I tell you what 29k - 30k DR is the worst place to be in the game, I hate the way PD just dumps all the scummers from A into your lobby as soon as your on the cusp of A. Just full up with SR B drivers from A lobbies that are fast but mega dirty. Took me 4 races just to not get punted so I could get a high enough finish to get back into A. First race in A was so much faster than B - had to hit low/mid 29's every lap just to hang on to 4th.
But in better news, I think my Gr initiation is over and I've found near the pace I have in Gr4, there's been some blood, sweat and nearly tears put into it
GT is best game
