I just want to be very very clear im
Not moaning about bad results, I’m moaning about driver behavior masked as ignorance or overly “optimistic” these are very very very clear nuances.

So it’s not the results that are my issue it’s the standard of the racing that is the main point. Yes it’s great to have fun but when it starts getting in to the place where people are racing for the whole point of racing it’s a bit meh because you are having fun and I’d like to win, which I rarely do. My fun is in the competitive close competition not the accidentally rammed you wide side of the coin because “fun”

And then I have a messaging arguement with a person who said “it’s my fault, I was trying to get the slip stream and (this bit gets me) you shouldn’t have been there)

Just sigh, accountability is part of the skill curve not reductive but additive. Wanting to be faster and better should be the goal, just participating and not doing those things works in certain lobbies but….

Accountability is a skill curve in life in general, and not many people bother to 'git gud' in that respect. Hardly surprising it carries over to video games.

But that’s not an excuse not to question it.

It’s not about getting good it’s pretending you’re good and calling it fun but with no effort. That’s the problem. Those that want to have fun is fine, those that want to actually race get the raw end of the stick in these “fun lobbies”

So we have:
Race A - Tsukuba
Race B - Dragon Trail (Gr. 4) 5 laps
Race C - Daytona (Gr. 3) 10 laps

Got this much info as was seeing TheKie25's live stream on daily races. Excited for Dragon Trail...love that circuit + Gr. 4 cars.

Nice, DTG indeed should be a good combo with Gr4 (hopefully 😆)

Interested to see the car used on race A too

Have a good week all

Toyota 86 GT or Subaru BRZ S.

6x tyre wear at Daytona so there may be a tiny bit of strategy there, but all in all it looks like the same old. Very boring, bring on Rennsport and PMR for some extra options in weeks like this.
 
The races should be ready now, PD usually updates them at 3AM Eastern Standard Time. Wow, Daytona should be a pleasant challenge for some of you to tackle.

@Uday9479 yeah I think DT is a fun organized course too, just beware of the CoD, you can wreck your car if you go too fast through it. Gardens is an easier layout for most people.

Very imaginative, agree with you to see what PMR or RS brings,

I'm not sure the racing will be any better to be honest. I'm just looking forward to all the new tracks (as someone who's only on PS5 and doesn't like ACC). Come the end of December we'll have Circuit Gilles Villenueve & Yas Marina (GT7), Hockenheim & Jeddah (Rennsport), Mosport, Donington, Imola, Kyalami, Mid-Ohio, Lime Rock, Silverstone, Sebring, Zolder (PMR). More variety, even if you only want to race GT3 and GT4.

Must've played 7-10 times in Race B. So so much fun. Surprisingly, all the races on the first lap leading to the uphill chicane were clean.

Raced a few times with G70 which I feel is a complete package due to its 4WD drivetrain but I realised it has the potential to bounce over kerbs especially in the chicane of death which got me a little loss of control.

Then I shifted to my personal favorite Audi TT Cup which is not Your typical choice but I love this car's handling due a very stable front end. It's a little slow in the slow turns but I want stability as that helps in racing cleanly against other users.
 
I have to say I’m hopeful for this week, race B in gr4 is a good fit and I saw today some real great attempts at the COD,

I’m in DR repair week so I’m not racing too hard, in my lowly DR postion I started on pole and I was punted into the first corner, no worries top 5 will do me.

Punting leader must have had a 7 sec lead but quit out after a run in with the wall, so did a few others, but a good race.

Nahhhhhh Race A are fun little cars, may buy one for my son when his time comes to drive. And Race b may be better in Group 4 than 3 for this track, not sure, we will see. I do wish this was RWD only like Yamagiwa a few months back.

Total slop IMO. BRZ/86 was alright the first time but they've appeared several times and there's still tons of possible, cool and unused cars that deserve to show up.
 
Has anyone tried Race A? I've never enjoyed Tsukuba despite being a short track. I feel this will be a massive bumper car festival.
