Race A
  • Tokyo Expressway East - counterclockwise
  • Preset supercars
  • racing hard tyres

Race B
  • Deep Forest
  • Gr3
  • race medium tyres

Race C
  • Catalunya - no chicane
  • Gr4
  • race medium tyres

Laps nr guess (cause in GTSH rank isn't shown)
4 - Race A
5 to 6 - Race B
10 to 12 - Race C

If my damn arm get better, I'd really like to do race C. Crossing fingers, I wish everyone an excellent week.

Edit: Gr3 meta will be the Viper, dominating at DF
Gr4 meta is the Citroën, but others MR cars can be good (NSX, 488, Cayman)

Bad weekend for me. I developed an annoying tendonitis in my right forearm and by Saturday evening I couldn't even lift or hold a bottle. Tried to put some laps at TM, but in all left corners it was like being stabbed with a knife.😖
Just hope it doesn't last long. Rest is needed, so I might be on the bench next weekend also.

This is a permanent problem for me - 2 laps with manual transmission and my hands swell up to twice their normal size!

I often wish for a Daily Race where it is AT only, as being able to use manual gives a big advantage on some cars.....

Deep forest reverse and I would have been happy, I’m not so sure the right way round will be anything but a punt fest into two turns

Might have a go on the Tokyo, which cars exactly is that?

From Reddit - R32 GT-R NISMO, R34 GT-R V-Spec II, Supra RZ '97, FD RX-7, NSX-R '02, R33 400R, R35 GT-R '17, Gallardo, F40, R8 '16, AMG GT Black Series '20, Huayra

I prefer DF this way, the only correct direction, so may give it a go if there's a Viper alternative at my level.

I did one at lunch and the cars around the front were Merc, Porsche, Viper and RCZ

I also watched the number 1 time at Tokyo by metal gear and that top end turbo kick looks like it would be a nightmare in a race scenario

Better races than last week, but why no real strategy in C? Or weather? Or both?

I assume the only only decision at Barca will be whether to change tires or not.

At least it’s the no Chicane layout!

This was the case in Race C in Watkins Glen (Gr.4) recently where You had to enter the pits but could skip changing tyres & adding fuel. What's the point of changing from RM to RM. This time the Race C format is focused on who can save tyres the longest. Which is why most are opting for GT by Citroen car.

I love the Gr. 4 cars but today I kept playing Race B (Gr. 3) because it's real fun driving through Deep Forest. Race A I skipped because the speed feels surreal enough to race within the walls at Tokyo.

Last time i drove a pre set Viper was, when they had the high speed chases at special route xx something like that. It was keeping up with the black series, until it RAN OUT OF FUEL. no other car had a similar problem
 
This weeks guide for those interested!

Race A can be fun and not fun at the same time! It will always be absolute carnage lap 1 turn 1 and with SR on the chance of a DR Reset is very real! Race B is fun and Race C has some strategy on one of my favourite circuits so I'm happy!

As always, thanks a ton @Tidgney for the effort You put into this because it helps users like myself who're average but get a little more competitive after seeing You lap guides. I make it a point to write so much in appreciation just to let You know there are many users like myself who appreciate Your lap guide videos.

I raced all the 3 tyres today but without having seeing Your lap guide for all 3 races, I was like racing blind & lacking speed and confidence. Your lap guides instill confidence in me because getting the braking references spot on is all that's needed to qualy well & race strong.

So thanks again Mate. I will thank You every single time You take the effort for random users like myself just to let You know how much we appreciate Your work & that Your efforts never go in vain.

Last time I used the viper was at Sardegna and it was great there, DF it’s tough going, I wouldnt recommend racing anything because the viper eats everything else up and the driving standards are suffering

But it is what it is for a week
