Well, duh. See here, boy, there's two directions, left, and Anti-Left.Yet in NASCAR you turn left

Yet in NASCAR you turn left
It's a left turn, 90 degrees, and comes very shortly after crossing start/finish.
But we're ahead of our rivals, so that - at least - is a win.
We have fewer crashes at twisty tracks. We had lots of small bumps at Silverstone, and barely anything at Trial Mountain - except, you were involved in every single incidence of contact, cnd. Stop putting magnets in your tires.
We bumped in race 2. It was a racing incident that I got the worst of, but that was just us both not giving an inch. No harm no foul in my books. I bet had you gotten the worst of it, I would've been penalized and publicly flogged...
Meh, it's racing. Had I figured out a non-painful way to hook up the G27, you wouldn't have been able to catch me

Get your G27 hooked up, soon, 'cuz that seems a bit overkill on the whole "twitchy car" thing I was mentioning in practice.
It was fun racing. I didn't have the look left and look right buttons configured on my controller (if possible to do thatI looked at the replay... That little nudge sent you flying!
Seriously, that was like the sort of gentle rubbing more often associated to a pregnant woman's belly than a collision between race cars...
But, I must admit, that was a good scrap 'til you lost it. Had you given me more room (I mean, watch the replay, I almost hit the wall trying to avoid you) I think you would've gotten a podium, G27 or not. Good race. I don't know how you managed to hold my outside through Turns 4 and 5 like that... But, question is, were you impressed to see me in Turn 4 up the inside like that? I surprised myself, somehow knowing to put my car in the perfect spot for that pass... Only to have you show me up on the outside, leading to the side-by-side through Turn 7 which caught you off guard...
) so I honestly didn't see you until that red blindspot arrow came on, but by then I had committed to the corner on the line we both chose. That's why I came down. I was on borrowed time holding the outside like that. I was turning opposite lock half the time just giving the ol bimmer all she was worth. My thought process was that if you got around me, I wouldn't catch back up. If I could hold you off, maybe the guys behind you would put pressure on you letting me get away and holding on for the W

Kinda worked, except Caine caught up for a seriously dramatic final two laps... Which somehow did see me win.
That same tune, I ran 13 consecutive laps all below 1.32.3 with my G27. It's the level of precision it has when correcting the oversteer that really makes it that much faster. GT6 has the best physics of any console platform racer, but it still lacks the realism when grip has been lost that Iracing has nailed. If I remember right, I'm a 2 time previous winner at Trial Mountain from S1 and S2. If I race any more this season, I think I'll have a better tune for the ds3. My next probable appearance will be Ascari or Brands. Not racing at all next weekend, and I'll race ToCA at Willow Springs the following one. Hopefully, the aggressiveness here will tone down a little more, or at least I won't be the only one flying all over the trackAnd I thought the obvious opposite "he'll be a buffer, I can win this race by Vettel'ing it from Lap 4 onwards.
I just wish I could've made the pass without bumping you at all. In GT6, I find it too hard to look left/right with a button. My instinct is to turn my head and visually look at the car passing, but I can't break concentration in-game for more than a split second. The corners come too quickly. If GT6 still had that super-zoomed map that shows the cars that are side-by-side, I would've been fine... But I don't use those blindspot arrows (because I can tell if someone's trying for a pass or not) nor anything else to help me to know where the other drivers are.
But, that BMW was fast when it wasn't sideways. I think, if you dial back the oversteer, you can be quite fast here again... You know, like Season 2. 💡
Edit: I've got buckets of photos. No, I'm not uploading them to photobucket. Flickr, though, definitely.

Well, Honda's now well and truly ahead in Manufacturer's, in front of Audi by 66 points, and Ford by 229 points.
...And Ascari Autosports is now leading the Team's Championship, by 16 points over FPR and 17 over T&TR. RRRT is doing miserably.
...And I'm now second overall, only 5 points (because @gtpcaine got fastest lap in Race 2) behind caine. If I had gotten those five bonus points, I would've been 5 points in the lead.
Bring on the Misty Mountain!
but is weird and surprising. You know that it's slower, right? I'm just glad I kept it on the island... That was a well-fought dice. I was wondering why my (brand new racing) brakes were starting to fade, but didn't realize until now that you were basically bumping me all the way past some of my braking spots. Amazing how Ciro was able to capitalize on you slowing down my corner entries by pushing me wide of my apexes.
Was a little naughty with Buck IMO but hey ho.
