Been struggling with SR since having a few weeks off. Since being an S driver i cont think of every dropping to an A.... Occasionally have the odd bad race where its a red S but thats it. Since the update, it seems at though i get either a red or white letter no matter how i drive.
This morning i tried to do a very clean race on Willow springs. Guy in front overcooks it on lap 1, turn 3 and makes contact with me at he comes back on track. I get a 2 second penalty and a SR drop notification. I then have the remaing lap and subsequent 4 laps 100% free of contact and go from 6th to 2nd. Each lap i get a positive SR notification. At the end of the race, i still get a red B SR rating. Just checked the stats website (cool link... ) and i lost 8 points from 1 race.
Could be that im a bit rusty and am getting into trouble easier than i would have previously but ive also had a 100% clean race, and got the bonus whilst also getting a red SR rating at the end of it.
I will go again tonight and see if i can put up a replay if the same scenario comes up again..... I dont think its me but then again, when do we ever think were to blame
