Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong, please?

I'm on season 3 of my career and it just keeps repeating the same two races, Northampton and Derby

Sorry, no idea, but did you hear "I Got You Babe" on the radio when you woke up this morning? If you hear it again tomorrow you're in trouble...

What do you mean exactly?
If you are referring to the mx5 championship , that is what it is, those 2 races.
Just pick a different championship, there are 3 available

Can you show us what your career mode screen looks like after you have completed the second of the two races? Usually you click to finish the championship, then when you go to the season/championship select screen, you should have a few options to choose from. For example if you are in the MX5, you will have 3 championships to choose from, the UK, US South and US North series'.

So just double check that when you enter the new season, you have multiple options to choose from. A screenshot would help us to help you though.
 
I checked my pithouse settings and it's set to 900. I can't get 1:1 with the wheel animation no matter what I do with calibration.
The only way I managed to do it was set the wheel to 2030 in pithouse, then it was 1:1.
But then it throws ACC and EA WRC out of whack, so if I want to use that I'll have to set a different profile to use whenever I play PMR. But of a faff but it's doable
 
I tried some different LMDh cars today for the first time in a long while and I don't remember their steering being so incredibly stiff. My wheel would oscillate at high speeds. I tried lowering steering feel down but that didn't seem to help it much. Also the brakes seemed bad. Even the hybrid cars with regen seemed like their stopping distance was too long.

Has anybody had a problem with Group C cars having a dead spot in the steering? I tried them at Spa and no matter what I tried I couldn't get them to go through Eau Rouge at speed. I had to slow down a lot because of the slack in the steering. Trying to turn right at the bottom of the hill and the car just keeps drifting left. I even tried doubling the steering ratio and it didn't help. I tried the Porsche, Mercedes, Mazda, and Jaguar and they all had the same problem.
 
The brakes on the Group C cars are too good in this game. I should not be able to bring the 962 to a complete stop in 100 metres after attacking The Chase on Bathurst at over 300KM/H. That's F1 level brakes, yet I can barely get a lap time under 2 minutes. The lack of downforce is staggering and there's absolutely no way it's correct.
 
I did a few races the other night and I have some thoughts:
-The collisions suck and the hitboxes aren't done correctly. They're too big so it looks as though there's clear air between the cars still.
-In the C6.R, going from 1st to 2nd gear is a bit of a problem as the car will try jumping across the track. This means I have to avoid shifting down to 1st completely.
-The car behaviour at low speeds can sometimes feel a bit jittery
-If you get too close to another car in the 911 992 Cup, you will lose the front end and spin out. Dirty air in general feels a lot more problematic than it should be.
-The CLK-LM, Sauber C9 and 962 wander around too much at high speed. They do not feel stable and it's quite disconcerting when you're barreling into Parabolica on Monza.
-The CLK-LM in general doesn't feel as stable as it should be. Through the Ascari chicane on Monza, the car was sliding around far too much and it honestly felt like I was driving on old cross-ply tyres.
-GT3 cars on the other hand are very stable and handle exactly as you expect.
-It very much seems as though some cars are modelled and simulated better than others. This level of inconsistency is soo strange but I suppose it's down the game's lack of funding.
-Compared to Gran Turismo, PMR really lacks polish and I don't feel like it's worth playing through the career mode. I'm not willing to put up with a product that doesn't have all the kinks worked out.
-Only having 16 cars on track at a maximum is pathetic when even Gran Turismo can give you more.
-I'm quite frustrated to be honest because you can have some good fun when you're alone. Those experiences did give me some optimism for the future but that's gone now. What a shame.
