Hey folks.., just wanted to share a bug/glitch that I have been running into lately. It's not game-breaking.., and there's a work-around for it.

If you go into the Quick Mode to run Time Trials, Quick Races, ect. There is a bug/glitch within the Time of Day settings.

Example..., going into Time Trial., making all your settings.., and then going on to complete the Time Trial. After completing the Time Trial.., if you go back to the Quick Menu to say run a Quick Race on the same track.., even though the Time of Day is still set to "Day".., once on track you'll notice that the Time of Day isn't represented properly (or it at least isn't with my copy of the game).

A good example. I ran a Time Trial at Road America with "TOD" set to Day. During the TT the lighting conditions were correct. However.., going back to the menu to run a race on the same track and leaving the TOD setting to Day resulted in a race with MAJOR overcast and was clearly not the Day setting.

Easy fix.., even if you're using the same TOD.., "re-select" it for the next type of event. It's just a small glitch.., but easy to work with.
 
I think it's not a glitch, actually it's still day but not sunny.

I still think it's something off with the settings because if you go back and reselect Day.., when the race starts the lighting is correct. The lighting for Day selection should be the same. It being bright and sunny on Time Trial.., and then switching to major overcast with minimal sun in the actual race isn't correct. They're supposed to be the same for both.
