What a blast Race C is!!!!!!!!!!

The GT-R Nismo is the sureshot meta but crazy fast. The NSX-Concept was my initial car to drive in as it's more stable than the GT-R at turn 3 & Turn 6 (right hander before the bridge). But it's slower. The RC-F is the third option of a car which I'm seeing in the races so far.

The great flowing nature of St. Croix always produces such a thrill. I raced some times a while back & each race was so much fun. Close racing with amazing cornering grip. I repeat......what a thrill! :cheers:

Looking forward to it!!!! Hopefully see you out there, I'm on the cusp of A on my alt account so think I'm going to jump on that this week and try and get it up into A and toward the middle.

How loose is the Nismo in the corners? I've got a very heavy foot 🤦‍♂️

It's kind of nimble & nervous on bumps. I've seen players ahead of me spinning out in the Nismo but not in a NSX. Still, Nismo is loads of fun.

I'm done playing for today Mate. I'll be playing again 14-15 hours.

P.S. - Always opt for a Rh-RM strat unless starting in the top 3 as the difference in lap times between the 2 tyre compounds is big. You could pit at the end of lap 6 on either tyre compound.
 
I've always found Santy Croix to be a cracking match with high-downforce cars.

Looking forward to getting out of work and giving it a blast (I'm hoping new physics brings some more manageable tyre degradation with it).
 
As I said, I was all weekend at Yas Marina, finally learning the track. Eventually it's a good one and the championship limits suit it perfectly. Managed a '52 dead as QT and a best '53.5 in free air in race. Happy with the overall performance, being my 1st ever visit there. It took me till Sunday evening to run a race without penalties, but eventually I did it twice. One was a quite dominant, winning by 14 sec to the 2nd (B lobby).
With the new physics now it seems that the GR3 are the "new GR4". (didn't try GR4 yet but I assume it's even less challenging than it ever was before).
Still experiencing some random disconnection btw. If it happens when you're cruising 1st, it's quite awful.
Looking forward to St. Croix in the RCF or NSX this weekend.
Wishing an excellent week to everyone.

Couple of notes from my race C. Made a mistake of putting on lap 2 for some Hards. Don't race St Croix that often so already at a disadvantage, the tyres were mostly shot at the end. Whatever your tyre choice I think halfway for pitting seems a good idea.

Edit: oh yeah, if isn't obvious, don't refuel.

Race C I’m running RH7 & RM5. Not sure which way round is best. Are any of the legends able to guide me as I do appreciate that starting position is a factor 😇🤠

I hope someday PD start to ban people who play like a ****ing stupid of **** just to ruin the race for everyone at the lobby.

The guy was ramming at everyone on porpuse just to win the race. I hate so ****ing much this kind of people, it makes my blood boil.

And you can't even swear at the idiot because he will report your account to PSN and you can get your account banned from everything.

PD literally doesn't care or they'd have built a reporting option into the game. Best advice would be quit lobbies that player is in if you join them. Find a different one.


My personal advice would be "there's no reward for having a high safety rating"... and then act accordingly :D

This weeks guide for those interested! Seems like a fantastic week to me!

Hmmmmmmmm. A LOT of cars "crabbing" in the Group3 race, do you know if they were controller users? By crabbing i mean the car sort of wobbling left to right, like it loses front grip then gains it on the rear then the opposite happens really quickly. I usually see this on modded road cars without a sticky enough tyre.

I wonder if this ties in with the comments that you can over turn the wheel and the car now turns rather than understeers off, as in is this being seen because the drivers are entering too fast but just keep turning now? It's definately there in your video, really clear on the cars you are close behind, distinct "crabbing".
 
Wow what a combo race C! Absolute belter!!!!

I’m off the pace with a 1.53.380 on the Alt. Need to get into the 52’s but my word it’s fun trying!!

Although I’ve not done a race C for a while and I remember why now, getting wrecked on lap two and spending 20 minutes on your own at the back isn’t much fun!
