Having again watched two people blast past me in the Hyundai Genesis from the back of the grid at Road Atlanta, to finish 2nd and 4th, I remembered that it stood me in good stead at St Croix a few weeks ago.

Tried it again, and immediately knocked 0.3 secs off my QT! Didn't dare use it in the race though, as the rear end is a lot looser than the 911......

I had this issue a few weeks ago. Decide to just buy the cars on each menu book rather then race as the races were dull. Makes it much quicker

Thanks for the tip. I've bought what I could but you still have to do some snooze races though. Got bored eventually at book 23 or there abouts. Working tonight so will crack on tomorrow.

I don’t think you need to unlock it to race it, but unless you were talking circuit experience I’ll just be quiet 😁

Well I was talking about CE's. Such easy money. Never knew they were a thing until last week. I tend to do as little of career mode as possible in most racing games I've played.

Is this race A? I tried it earlier but couldn’t get the hang of it and didn’t want a further DR massacre after race C this week.

Tomorrow is going to be a race B day to build some DR back up.

I had the same when I first tried it mate, but it’s been a great combo and glad I went back, I reckon it’s a more solid dr gainer than that heathen of a reverse track 😁

Absolutely made up and a few beers 🍻 inbound. Not sure how long it will last but a major milestone achieved DRA 🥳🥳🥳

I was going to give it a go today but I am sooooo hungover I haven’t got it in me. If I race going to be an easy one round B I think!

Yeah… let’s say you can tell when I am drinking…

It's Race C that has me curious. TM reverse and strong fuel and tyre multipliers. Group 2?

Oh god! I won’t be doing that then, got no chance of controlling Gr2
 
I improved my QT in race A, 29.6 now, but not doing too well in the races. I try to defend the inside line and these knobs just seem to go even further up the inside, then someone else tries to overtake both cars on the outside!🤦🏼‍♂️

Edit: I still feel most players are reasonably fair but as the saying goes it only takes 1 bad apple.....

Edit #2: why do I always get caught up in this shizzle!?

That’s a real good QT, I tried again today and that’s me done, I can’t take any more of being well up only for the time to just disappear somewhere 😁 but there is a real track day feel to it which I like,

Most of the ppl I’m racing with are fair and clean and as you say, one dope in there usually barging his way through but usually a few corners later someone dishes out some justice, I just try and keep out of it and pick places here and there, I find racing them too hard ends in disaster

Edit. Ouch 😬

Think he missed his breaking point 😂
 
Very productive DR day today, you’ll see what I mean about let the lobby do the work, both races I get roughed up in the first two hard braking areas, then come back to great finishes, see the last corner both races where I took 2 places 🤣

Nice to see you out there @benjoi84

You’re a better man than me!!! I would have slammed into that yellow Porsche on the next corner where you showed control and gave him space 😂😂😂😂

Nice to hear the DR is going up!!!! I did 9 B races over yesterday and today instead of C and plucked up 5k DR 😂😂 been brutalizing myself all week in C when I could have most probably stuck my self back in DR A if I’d of done B all week

Oh mate I felt like it but you know you reap what you sow and an all that, early on in the week I put a guy in the sand for that kind of thing and it came back to haunt me a few times, so I figure if they do to me, they do to someone else and let them have a thing going! 🤣

I’m hopeful next week at spa I’ll be getting back to A, when there’s two races to go at, I don’t master either, actually I’ve spent more time at Sardegna in the end

Yeah that’s true. It’s definitely come back to bite me numerous times, but I can’t help myself sometimes.

I’m not 100% if I’m doing spa or race C next week, Spa is such a technical track I’m struggling in the CE

Mate, this is where you need to do Spa and only Spa all week, couple of races a day with some qualifying thrown in, by the weekend you’ll be a master of it, I call it the evolution of the week, just try it and tell me next Sunday if it’s not the right thing to do 😁

Or whichever track you choose, just stick to it, learn it, race it, study it and mofo’ing master it 😂

There it is,
 
And for anyone who doesn’t get the love for Porsche 911s please go watch the 80s movie ‘no man’s land’ with Charlie Sheen, DB Sweeney,

Drive it like you stole it guys 😁

This was like a locker room speech!! You’ve hyped me up so much I dragged myself off the sofa and finished the circuit experience!!!


And OMG I bloody hate chicanes!!!! I was losing 3 tenths at Atlanta and this one is a bugger too!!!!

I get it now tho!! This is a fun track. Not too sure what it’s going to be like with other cars on it tho 🤦‍♂️

On menu book 29 in career now and I just can't face any more snooze-fest championship races.

Spa unlocks at book 30 😅 and desperately need to prepare for next week's races there.

My DR is just about holding stable after struggling in Race A this week.

Louth through and get it done mate, the CE is a Gr3 Porsche so it’s deffo beneficial if it’s going to be a Gr3!!

You’re waaaay ahead of me on DR now, I dropped from 29k to 15k in race C, doing some damage control in race B now, back at 21k. So going to do 1 or 2 more races and call it a night.

Just for contrast when I don’t get a few to many in on a Friday or sat…

Who knew drinking and drinking would be bad 🤷‍♂️ they should do a campaign about that 😂

Lovely little spike though mate, what’s the highest you’ve been?

That’s the wrong question, where do I think it will plateau again is the right question.

Ignoring that because it doesn’t actually matter it all comes down to combos, for A this week I’m 40th in the world so milking that a little (and giving away free dr on Fri and Sat 🤣)

I won’t do spa next week, for me I don’t like the flow and it trades on histrionics a bit rather than racing side by side.

So it will either be a quiet week or a TT week as I’m fairly ok pace wise with TM being my strongest of the 3
