The A112 again? C'mon, PD...so many good cars are being ignored that could be a blast for Race A. Do these guys need some help in the Race A creativity department? I'm free if they want some fresh ideas.
The last time I raced them at Fuji it was very entertaining. The pretune makes them very sharp. You should give it a try!
 
Did you take a small break because I haven't seen you post in a while here. You like the Genesis, I'm a fan of the Porsche car. We have different likes for cars, :)

Enjoy racing this week mate and avoid those immature drivers. Stay strong. I don't understand why PD likes to choose Deep Forest so much for the daily races. Watkins Glen too, and don't get me started on the Maggiore business.

And the BoP regulations sucks the fun out of the races because it limits power. And any tuning mods or things from the GT auto will be neutral meaning that the settings will always be reset. I haven't watched your video yet.
Good to see you again, sir!

Haven't been racing much lately due to real-life stuff. When it's freezing outside I can make excuses to stay inside...now, not so much, lol, and all those winter excuses caught up to me.😁

Couldn't resist DTG last week and was finally able to notch a bunch of these y'day:

I like the line-up this week so looking forward to it.👍

Take care! :cheers:

That's why I have been in the Custom Races for the last month. My Abarth cup is still the best racing, and now I am building a Clio Cup. I scooped up 7 more before the disappeared from the UCD.

I decided to get involved in dailies this week to make sure I didn't get rusty. Win 223 :D

So, the dailies have their place. If you want to race against people, go dailies. If you want to explore your garage, the Custom Sophy races (with boost set to weak, never forget that part) is where to go. I have been using cars I haven't touched since the game was released.

For comparison with the dailies (for those who don't know this yet), I grabbed the last lap of an Abarth Cup race I had saved. I blew T1 and Sophy caught me. Also, just FYI, the cars with the extra Sophy badged have 5pp more. I boosted three of them for an extra challenge. Unfortunately, Sophy isn't very fast with GR3, but if you are looking to use the other cars, then it's perfect.



This week, seeing at the BoP GR3 cars are +/- 700pp, which is where I set my Sophy "Group3" races at, I want to do a comparison between The BoP's Ferrari, and some of my garage cars built to be classic GR3. It's a bit of a shame that this week's Catalunya layout doesn't support Sophy yet.

Really torn between Race B and C this week. I like Barcelona without the chicane but have not raced at the Glen for a while. The bus stop at Watkins really hurts the experience so I may lean Barcelona I think. Something nimble may work there, the BMW maybe?

Ferrari seems popular

I've pretty much given up with the dailies for the time being. Still working to complete all single-player content. That said, your Sophy race looked good. I don't do those though as I can't stand the stupid Sophy beeps and emoticons. I find that totally pathetic; I don't need to know what Sophy is "thinking". Why can't we switch them off?

That said, Race A looks like fun this week and C is tempting but I'm busing and going off on a 4 day mountain biking trip Wednesday so won't have any time to race.

Unfortunately no. I agree that I don't see much value in knowing what Sophy is doing, but it's a small price to pay for the fun that I am having :D...also, turn on the penalties. Make it like Sport Mode. It's more rewarding and keeps you honest.

Had a good run of races in last week at Laguna. Not all of them were good but still enjoyed it overall. The best result is a victory from 16th!

Spent most the week racing from behind in DR.B lobby with enough good result to end up DR.A.
Once I qualified with a 1.22.6, I was fast enough to start in the top 5 but most of the time I finish the race lower than my starting position.

I also chocked on a possible win when I was leading, I got 3 sec penalty for pit entry and 2nd didn't pick new tires. So even thougt I serve the penalty, i knew I could catch back up to the leader with bad tires by the end of the race. Unfortunately, I messed up the Corkscrew and ended up eating gravel and finish 5th.
