I entered my first Race B of the week after setting my PB QT.

Good to see @BuzzdoggZ in the lobby.

Started around p5 finished p8. There was a collision in front of me and I slowed to avoid the fallout (turned out it wasn't necessary as just as I was about to impact their car ghosted). Then got swamped and lost concentration. Then it was playing catch-up and damage limitation.

BuzzdoggZ had good race up ahead I think. P3!

You were unlucky having to take evasive action, while I was far enough behind the collision that I could carry on full speed through the ghosts and off on my merry way. It also helped that you were then holding off the pack behind, much appreciated 👍

I bet you've gone and beaten my bloody time!!!!

You going to get some more races in?

Yes he has, and my time too, the little get 😆

Don’t worry you’ve a decent enough time to keep you in the top half, depending on how many mates you have got 🤣

I’m finding it tough going at Yama, seem to be massively overdriving the car to hang on those kerbs to pull myself around and it just isn’t working

Definitely mate! Can't see me getting any wins but should be able to hold a mid pack position.

Drop down to B with me and it's wins galore

Gahhhh this 32 keeps eluding me. I've improved 3 times and it's still in the 33.0s!!!

Has anyone had much luck finding a non meta winner for Race C?

I've been running the Hyundai VGT. It has the kind of profile where it's lightning in the straights but it's not too shabby on cornering either. I've had a few races where my pit strat has given me a good opportunity for podiums, but mostly over been shunted aside by hybrids in my second stint (I haven't been changing tyres, which is probably a factor in that).

I've been diving in the pits as early as lap 1 or 2 and I'm certain a player of a higher calibre and/or better at preserving rubber could have some luck.

@newmedia_dev thinking I may push the button on the PSVR2 how do you find racing without seeing the leaderboard and the time between you and the car behind etc… was reading that there is much less info on the VR?
