I did a random time trial at the Nordschleife in the Audi R8 LMS '15, and for some weird reason it didn't show up in the ranking board.

I also counted that I have 175 cars on 0 miles in my garage.
 
I finally bought the Jag for the trophy. I wasn't planning on buying it because I wanted to have more credits. But I clicked on it before I could think about it
 
I finished the last weekly challenge (WTC 900 race) in third place, enough for the 500,000 cr bonus and a 64,000 cr payoff. Then I bought the Jaguar XJR-9 from Hagerty's for 3,000,000 and raised my collector level to 67.

I did two of the weekly challenges, the Jimny Cup (easy win), and the Special race at Red Bull Ring that I managed to win with my F3500 B (fitted with the Jordan-esque front wing) without pitstops and just being fast enough to hold off the late charging challengers. About 400,000 cr total earnings from the 2 races, the 100,000 cr bonus, and the 4-star roulette ticket. And I reached collector level 69 thanks to the Jaguar D-type that is rewarded for completing the Jaguar menu.

Done a few Sardegna races for credits and a few Nurburgring ones for the same reason too, while breaking in a new Thrustmaster Ferrari 488 GT3 wheel on the T-GTII base. Great improvement, imo. Not that the stock wheel is bad, but the 488 makes a lot of difference for me. All races done in the Audi DTM car. Great experience in VR.

Did I find an Easter Egg?

I've made 90's F1 races. They're really good...like WAAAAY better than I imagined. Here's 10 laps at Interlagos where I start on pole. It doesn't go the way you'd imagine racing against the AI would go. Watch how I race with Schumacher, and watch how Schumacher races me back!!! 🤔 🤔

Is there some kind of easter egg if you give your AI the names of former champions? Or is this just a really cool coincidence?

 
I had a busy Sunday. I finished the weekly events with the Ferrari Circuit Challenge and did other stuff there (track experience) to get the daily mileage. Of the 4-star ticket I got another Mach Forty (!) and from the 6-star reward ticket I got another Porsche 918 Spyder, and with that I reached collector level 70 which unlocked the last of the extra menus (Alfa Romeo Legends). I decided to sell my older 918 Spyder and purchase the Suzuki V6 Escudo Pikes Peak Special.

And I'm musing whether to sell the Jaguar D-Type (for about 3 million cr) and get the Ferrari F50 from Hagerty's.
 
Ran consistent 1:55's with the new Porsche, bone stock, at Maggiore. I got into the Human Comedy race and suddenly the car was on ice. I broke the steering shaft on my wheel trying to keep it on the road.
That race is a complete waste of time. I thought 1:55 lap times would win by a mile.
Wait...I opened the housing on the wheel. There's nothing broke...it turns out the steering shaft wasn't bolted down correctly! There's a sensor at the back that was loose enough to disconnect from the shaft and, critically, the centering mechanism had some bolts just hanging loose in there. I can't imagine if it had force feedback. Unfortunately it's beyond repair and out of warranty too.

Had a clear out of my high value cars (apart from my McLaren F1) to buy the 250 GTO, at last.

I don't race enough or keep credits long enough to save for it, so I find it easier to sell off the cheaper stuff and make enough to replace them as and when.
 
The last week and a half I have been doing random WTC800 races, mostly at Yas Marina, to get my daily mileage and both of my accounts. I have fallen in love with the DBR9 GT1, especially on the wheel. I might have also emulated the DBR9's cockpit for my sim cockpit as well. I have been getting used to my new sim wheel setup as well, going through the singleplayer events on my alternate account.
 
I logged in to see if I got 2M for the Autopolis Time Trial, only to find there is still a day to go, and that my time had slipped to a silver.

So I did a banker lap and was only 0.9xx off my best (which was less than 0.1s off a gold), and my next lap I bagged a 2:04.8xx, enough to be within the gold time by 0.2s... hope it lasts!
 
I did the Sprinter Trueno race at Fuji (bleh) in the orange track of the Power Pack. Qualified 4th, dropped to 6th at the start, but finished 1st. The daily 3-star ticket got me a part, but I can't remember for what. I did sell the Jaguar D-Type for 3 million cr and quickly purchased the F40 (having missed on the more expensive F50).
 
Funny, I was racing my GT4/Gr.4 RWD only cars last night. Click on gtplanet and see the daily race are using FR only Gr.4 cars.
 
Did my daily and won a Nissan GTR Gr 4 off a 4 star ticket

Did my daily yesterday as well and won a Toyota SF-R Racing Concept from a 3 star ticket....

I'm sorry but the SF-R is one of the most worthless cars in the game. No engine swap. Does anyone actually use this car ?
