Super late on this but picks for the events. Apart from seeing Fisherman's ranch again, overall an easy bunch.


European Sunday Cup 400: Peugeot 205 GTi. EZ (Apart from Lopez and his Megane)
Pickup Truck Race: Toyota Tundra TRD Pro. I've seen way too much of this track and would really like not to for a while
World Rally Challenge Gr.B: Toyota 86 Gr.B Rally Car. Another race I really am not a fan of. Done and dusted.
World Touring Cars 800: Ferrari 296 GT3. Easily the favorite of the week.
Special Event: Again, EZ.
 
What I used, the "M Hybrid" was the only new car for me.

June – Week 3
A difficult but interesting week. This week I used:
Gamepad | Automatic transmission | Race Difficulty – Hard | TCS 1

#5 | World Touring Car 800 | Watkins Glen Long Course
Porsche 963 '24 | PP 800 | RM tyres | FM2 | 1 pit
I wanted to try out the cars from the latest upgrade again in this race. The first attempt with the Ferrari 499 was unsuccessful again, apparently I can't tune it correctly. In the second attempt I used a Porsche 963 with RM tyres and FM2. I needed 1 pit stop to change the tires without refueling. I got a few penalties and won by a margin of 12 seconds.

#4 | World Rally Challenge Gr.B | Tokyo Expressway – Central Clockwise
Subaru WRX Gr.B Rally Car | PP 698 | RH tyres | FM1>6 | 1 pit
Subaru is clearly stronger than the others in this race. I started the race on hard tyres with the FM1 and at the end of the fourth lap I found that the fuel was running out. I went to the pit stop to refuel and change the tyres and switched to the FM6. This allowed me to save fuel to the finish line. When it started to rain and the bots went to change the tyres, I stayed on the RH and it was the right decision.

#3 | Pickup Truck Race | Fishermans Ranch
Ford F-150 SVT Raptor ‘11 | PP 594 | D tyres
I had not participated in this race before, and only the weekly challenge made me do it. I couldn't get higher than third place for several attempts in a row, and then suddenly I won. I don't know what caused it - either I became faster or the bots became slower.

#2 | Special Race – Renault Twingo – One-Make | Brands Hatch Indy Circuit
Renault Twingo ‘93 | PP 563 | RS tyres
I didn't bother with this race, I just took a fully charged Twingo and won.

#1 | European Sunday Cup 400 | Goodwood Motor Circuit
Mercedes S Barker Tourer ‘29 | PP 499 | RS tyres
After several attempts at the PP400, I realized that I couldn't win and increased the power to 500.

Interesting set this week .
I'll never try this Tokyo again even if they had to pay me for 🤣
The dirt trucks isn't something interesting for me but at least i don't hate it .

What really caught me this week is the 800pp race .
I try a couple of new line hyper cars ( Peugeot and Bmw ) trying to do a non stop race but i find out that you have to end the race with the rims Infront.
So i guess best option using them is one stop and full throttle ahead.
But what is really a blast and joyful was the NSC concept 16 .
Bring in it down to 800pp on RH and using FM3 all the way ( AT gears 🥴) was able to run non stop but what was second to none is the pleasure of driving it.
Taking the turns 5 and 10 at full throttle is really horny .
Trust me you won't regret it

Edit
After NSX i tool the Lexus ....oh boy , who needs hyper ?
I even lapped up to 12 place AI.
Always FM3 AT gears.

Thats what i use
RH tyres racing gearbox but i tweak a bit the gearing lengthening the first and put the others accordingly .

The Valkryie surprised me a lot how it barely locks up its brakes. But credit goes to the new brake pedal mod I installed.

Kudos for the no ABS challenge. I've been stuck on the European Sunday Cup race for two days straight now attempting to win in a stock Peugeot 205 GTI '88 with no ABS. It's just under 400PP and I'm pulling my hair out lol.

The old cars can test your patience with them having no ABS in real life.

The F40 is still the easiest to drive without it, in this game at least.
