I got Gold on the Big Willow event and Bronze on both this Daytona event and the Nordschleife event. Bronze was good enough to win the cars and all 3 have been placed in the Stockyard.Did a bronze lap to get the car and couldn't wait to leave. Never to be driven again in case I hit the dog flatulence sounding limiter again.
Its the same when you get the car. It does keep accelerating, albeit slowly, and you have to use the DRS.So what up with 7th gear on the car for this event? 7th gear just goes to 6,000 rpm and the car doesn't accelerate. That leaves you with only 6 gears.
I noticed this as well. I was flying and shift up and the car basically stallsSo what up with 7th gear on the car for this event? 7th gear just goes to 6,000 rpm and the car doesn't accelerate. That leaves you with only 6 gears.
Thank you. I finally got gold but it wasn't easy. Couldn't find the DRS button though.Its the same when you get the car. It does keep accelerating, albeit slowly, and you have to use the DRS.
Its whatever you have set to NOS, R1 as default.Thank you. I finally got gold but it wasn't easy. Couldn't find the DRS button though.
1:11.472 for 201st place. Could have went faster, as I slightly messed up one or two corners, but Im happy with it, lol. If my place gets pushed back too far, I may try more.
EDIT: Wait. Theres a low drag mode? Well, Im trying more now, lol
You got this time WITHOUT Low drag mode??!!
On the back straight headed to the SF line hold your nitro button. It lessens aero and you can get up to about 290 MPH at the SF line, shift to 7th gear at about 270 MPH. Good use of that button can take quite a bit of time off of your lap. Just don't use it going into a turn, but any long straight is a good place for it.Interesting thing I've noticed is that a second lap will have you starting the lap much quicker (around 270mph) going in to the first turn. Where you start doesn't give you enough ground to really reach top speed. That being said, it's not as big of an advantage as I hoped, and I still can't get silver. I REALLY loose it in the infield. Have much work to do, but I believe I will eventually achieve it!

I figured out why it does this. When you hold the nos button the aero parts go down and the top speed goes way up. The gearing is still spaced wrong, but shifting to 7th with the aero parts down will make you go much faster. I used it on all the straights and managed to get a time better than anyone on my friends list.This happens to me just about every time I hit the chicane. It doesn't always happen which is odd. I shift down to second, and as I shift up when I get to 4th gear it just stays at about 184. Now I don't know if I'm doing something wrong, but as I said this does not always happen. I got Silver so far... any insights??
