Other than the cold tyres I didn't find the old M2 that bad tbh, but also never really interested me... I'll give that one a go somewhen.

Took the advantage of using the demo drive to try out some different GT4 cars, again gonna try to focus on/do races in that class this season, I get why people like the Merc but for me the McLaren (which I already owned, that and the Porsche) is so nice to drive, if a little less forgiving, but the turn in is what a race car should do :p

Biggest issue last season, apart from lack of confidence in the GT4's which I feel like I've addressed somewhat, was the effort to setup the wheelstand and everything, there were many times where I kinda wanted to do a quick practice or whatever, just like 30-60 mins kinda thing, but couldn't be bothered to lug the wheelstand into place etc. So although my DIY projects are not finished I think I'm just gonna say sod it and simracing takes priority so make some space in a room and set it up permanently, maybe even get a proper rig...
 
this week really doesnt interest me, this is what greeted me:eek:, apart from the dtm and nurd endurance nothing grabs me, and no thx on the rookies ,lol roll on next week when back to normal:)

Yeah, week 13 has always been a bit meh, sometimes there's some hilarious insanity but mostly just dull imo. I mostly use it for practice but won't race.

Was chatting to a mate that until recently has basically just been doing MX5's and he mentioned he's got the Porsche Cup car and done some of that and enjoyed it so as there's a couple of series using it at the moment I thought I'd jump in some practice for it. It's quite a fun car to drive tbh, compared to the GT4 it feels like I can hustle it a bit more and drive over the limit/get the car moving and still make laptime whilst the GT4 feels like I need to be so perfect and precise to get any real lap time...
 
Enjoyed the ringmeister series when I could race the gt4 and gr86 on it. I would love to do more gt4 but can’t bring myself to buy new tracks every season. Think I’ll do the clio cup this season and 1-2 weeks of something else to switch it up
 
I'm going to have a crack at GT4 I think. Try and run the season. Been doing a bit of LMU as well. Had fun in the GT3 around Spa this week. Good to be back into the hobby.
 
finding SA is so inconsistent since update. had a shocker of a race at watkins everyone thought it was bumper cars, like 15x, took .5 SA off me, which is fair enough, next race again at watkins, 8x, took again .5 SA, again watkins i got rear ended on parade lap, so x4 and no other x, gave me 0.01 SA. all 40min races. so confused lol
 
Don't think it's changed since the update? But as before it's just a long running 'corners per incident' so can have some odd seeming changes but it's just what corners dropped vs what were added...

I just fired it up to try the GT4, did some practice at Le Mans last week but someone's gone and turned the lights out :p Didn't spot that on the schedule (didn't think to check honestly) and so that's something to work on! Think I'm a fair way off the pace, like ~3s, but I know I'm not close to maximising the track just cause I'm struggling to see where to go.

This is just Watkins tbh. Brings out the worst in people.
 
I didn’t realise how few people do the clio cup. Had a race with just 5 people in it. Ended up doing the advanced mx5 on the ring and enjoying that.
