As much as I've enjoyed Dragon Trail Seaside (Race C) this week, looking forward to this week's new dailies especially Races B & C.

Love Deep Forest. Probably a Gr.4 race which is fun. Love sectors 2 & 3 out here.

One of the best features of Watkins Glen is the presence of big flat kerbs. Considering I'm not so confident driver with higher kerbs, the flat elongated kerbs give me ease at Watkins. There are similar kerbs even at Seaside which helps my confidence.

Watkins Glen as a track is amazing right from T1 itself. A fun track & this time we have Gr.3. I remember a few months back we had Gr.4 (Race C) there.

@NevilleNobody For the sake of sanity & happiness, I always want to race in Race C because usually players are more patient & not in a hurry to make moves as opposed to the smaller races A & B). Plus, strategy really makes it damn interesting. As much as I would enjoy Deep Forest with Gr.4, I'll spend overall more time in Race C at Watkins.
 
Wish I got in more race C this week.

Its perfect practice for my leagues Enduro this Friday night which is 2 hours of Gr. 4 at Dragon Trail - Seaside.

Also, it's giving me a good DR boost.

Been a slow week to actually get to race but focused on Race C and managed a win a couple of days ago in a low DR-B group. Fair racing and lots of fun with my DR slowly heading North 🥳. Thanks to our new TT challenge I’m finding better pace so thanks to those that have included me 🙏🏻

Jeez Louise I go away for one night and PD brings in all these fast buggers!!!! Can’t even get in the top half of the grid!!!!

7 A+ in this lobby!! 2 of them pitted first lap and then passed me on the 10th just before I pitted 🤦‍♂️ slightly embarrassing!

Around half a second off where I need to be to be competitive with those guys!

Well i tried - had a 1:09.7** at the second sector but had a poor last turn and only improved by a few hundredths.
I somehow started on pole in one race - and finished 2nd overall, which has been my best result. In the next race I was back to starting 13th.
I think if it had been GR3 there would have been more death at the chicane, but in GR4 folk are taking it close to flat every lap so there's not much scope to pick up any freebies.

Also, higher tyre wear would have mixed things up a bit, as everyone is on either a lap 1 or last lap stop.

Ah that’s a shame mate!!! .7 would have been lovely and put you right in the mix!

I don’t think I’ve got anymore in me unless I spend a good few hours lapping and pouring over replays

Seems that I can’t get above 25k Dr in the alt account, ever time I am the next race is an absolute s show, I’m surprised by how dirty I’ve seen racing at that level, no need for it really, maybe ppl just lashing out but a few bad trips thru cod and some idiot driving can easily put you back in red DR!

Glad it’s Monday tomorrow and can reset from this, managed a win this week, could have had a few more if it wasn’t for the above mentioned

Countless 2nd places 😁

2nd place still that that lovely blue colour on the DR though 😎

Top of B and bottom of A does seem to have the most shocking standards, seems like everyone is just. Bit desperate to either go up or not go down and leads to pushing and making mistakes or desperate dirty moves!!

You juts popped up on my lobby as I’m typing this 😂!

What a wonderful feeling it is to accidentally click don’t change tyres and then have to come round and put again the next lap 😟

I did similar - crashed in COD, pitted lap 1 on to mediums. Had a very boring race and wasn't paying much attention and accidentally pitted again on lap 10 again for more mediums 🤣
