This is the third week in a row of unimaginative and repetitive combos for race cars at least.
That awesome race that we had at Le Mans seems like a mirage right now.

The waiting for december will be long...

Not holding a strong stance on it but definitely feel that a devils advocate position can be put forward.

1: predictable races counter the arguement I had about last weeks races especially in A

2: people learn through repetition, so people learning and getting better is a good thing

3: normal racing like it or not does do the same things at the same places

4: the COD is way way easier in VR as you know so it’s just racing to me their

5: all of the tracks have save defendable lines without driving round the inside like scaletrix

Unimaginative yes, 100% but doable, competitive and great learning exercises with close racing possible, also yes
 
Honestly, Daytona R.C is one of the most boring tracks in the game. Im a bit fast on this course but still, its so boring. I really love Dragon Trail, that GR3/16 laps combination a few weeks ago was my best sport mode daily ever in stats!

Agree with what You've said.

The issue with Race C is that if You're by Your own, You'll miss out on a good result big time. As for Race C in Dragon Trail a few backs, I loved that combo so much as well. Even the current Race B is good but wish it was just a bit longer as racing there is so much fun when in the rhythm.
 
Dragon trail is fine, it’s an easy track especially if you are comfortable taking then T4 curb flat and the COD which are easier to do in VR

But these all come as part of the problem I was very annoyed about. In these races im moving from B to A after last week.

Not because I can’t drive (I think I’m top 150 atm) and was similar last week yet I got comfortable with the car yet in race people just didn’t care and used the pace of the car as an excuse to mask ability.

This isn’t the right attitude if you want to improve your DR or get those levels, YOU have to drive better and faster and safer, missing brake markers is what kids do, hit the car infront is what kids do. If you want better racing just try to be better. Grrr

I have shingles and I’m massively annoyed at the world
 
Yeah baby, clean racing is back!

Glad to see also the leaderboards a little more full 😁

Check is this beaut of a race, couldn’t shake this Mazda 3 off until he inevitably passed me, he did hit me and then back off so we were free to race knowing there was respect between us, it would have been his race had he not grazed the wall on the last lap and left me space to pass on the right.

Going to stick with the Atenza this week, just for a change. Don’t think race A is for me this week, fast times are very nearly drifting around there.

Happy hunting out there

I’ve made the statement here before and will make it again - it’s boring in real life too. I still track it and love hanging out with friends at track days, but it gets boring after a few sessions.

I’ll still continue to go to the Rolex 24 and do events there because racing is fun.

Better hope PD doesn’t update to the current bus stop chicane setup. That will really put a damper on the fun of the online experience!
 
I like Daytona RC. I just really dislike the Viper (this game’s interpretation of it) so race C is sadly pointless for me. Maybe a race in the tri-oval instead would’ve seen a bit more car variety.

Yeah I agree the viper is a bit meh putting it politely to drive.

Typically I’d do a few but can’t be bothered quite honestly. I hate the double shift you have to do and the archaic handling of it. Not for me this week.

Seaside is fine if not a little boring, the COD isn’t scary in VR, race A is fine as well and not crazy just again easier in VR to pick when to accelerate and coasting feels more natural.

Overall B is probably where the best action is at especially if you can full throttle T4 and mostly the COD

Well, I think we can agree because I didnt say this combos are bad for racing.
Its just more of the same recipe that we have week after week.

I hate to be the guy who blames PD every monday and in general I dont do it.
What doesnt work for me It can work for others and Im fine with that.

People learn through repetition but they also get bored and that is what is starting to happen to me.
PD have the tools at disposal to make the races a bit more interesting and they just dont use them.

This very same Daytona race at night would be a feast for the eyes for example (let alone a day-night transition)
Miatas instead of Gr. 3 should give us a very close and packed race.
I dont know, Im asking just for a few tweaks to let us feel we are not trapped in the Groundhog day.
