I absolutely loved this Tokyo track when it was a race C a while back. I'm always a little afraid to try a race B because of desperate drivers that fight for every corner.

That being said.. This was also the experience in my only race C yesterday. People barging through and taking each other out. I don't know why but I'm too hot-headed for this kind of behavior and many times I end up rage/disappoint quiting after I've been spun around several times. I can hold my own in B lobbies (at least in sub 20.000 DR B points lobbies) but I never seem to get out of them because this many quitting hits my DR stats hard of course. I just don't like driving on my own 10 seconds behind everyone after being punted. Then I'll go do something else with my day. Of course, today is a new day so I probably will have a go again. Not every race is bad. :D

I try to treat them as practice laps when I get taken out but I know what you mean I’m not happy. And Race c is particularly bad this week. PD should start handing out 1 min penalties. The punters were getting 3 seconds. With that system the victim is punished harder cause the punter makes the corner.
 
Am really digging Race C in (my) antimeta cars. I started racing here with the C7 as it's a powerful machine with good acceleration. Would get a little twitchy in the slow turns but that's fine. When I shifted to the AMG, it was even more fun, stable & fast. In my race where I finished (in the SLS AMG) behind a Mate in the GT by Citroen, I kept bumpdrafting him in the starting laps to create a gap to the ones behind me who were fighting it out from lap 1. That's why such a big gap to third place. I was happy with second as I kept bumpdrafting him till the finish line. Didn't want to make a move which could hurt our races. Plus, he's a clean driver & a fast one too so I was always there to bumpdraft & help both of ourselves in the bargain!

S2 is such a thrill to drive through. The Mate was quicker in S2 in his GT by Citroen whereas I was quicker in S1 & S3 in the SLS AMG.

That's smart of course. I only quit if I get taken out 2 or 3 times in the same race and are a long way behind. If it's only 1 incident, or if I have the feeling I can maybe gain back some places because it is still very early in the race then I also continue driving.
 
Nice to see you out there @brockie albeit the back of your car as we cross the finish line 😎

Been some fun racing this morning, think I’m going to have to move over to C at some point as it’s just stressful round Tokyo 😂 but I’m being lazy and just can’t be bothered to learn a new track!

Just ordered my new rig this morning so will be sitting by the window for waiting for the delivery man for the next two weeks!
