The scirocco will be fast, seaside reverse is a mess, the esses are down hill and close up instead of open up, which is just daft. It's a garbage experience. You need agility and power, the vw is the best mix of both. The Ferrari will maybe be a decent choice but it's hard to drive (MR).
Only one?
That's not the reporting race incidents / illicit behavior button. Those do nothing.

Optimal is a cruel carrot. I'm getting a bit obsessive about cracking that 44 wall.Can't quite put it all together to reach my optimal lap, but I'll be damned if I'm not consistent.

The WRX wouldn't be bad, I'd go with that until you've got the hang of the circuit, tbh. It doesn't flow nicely in this direction...I

It reflects my DR per track, I nearly always run one race a week from the back.
Plus another reason I don't care about my DR
Random disconnects still happen and with matchmaking often putting me with D/S players in the room, very bad for DR when getting disconnected. That also cost my 3 SR since it was only lap 2.
Sorry @Famine I should have combined the posts, SR Down.
The real problem is the lack of racing school in GT Sport. Just look at the comments on Reddit when I post a dirty move there
50% of the time I get shoved into the gravel with a car behind me there
Yeah, the optimal time is a tease, but it gives you hope.Optimal is a cruel carrot. I'm getting a bit obsessive about cracking that 44 wall.

Problem is he is going to get used to the Subie then not know how to drive the other cars. It's a weird car, all grip, no power and super forgiving.
I seem to get on well with the RCZ gr3. it slides about all over the place but I like the way it turns in and can ge the power down. Is there a gr4 equivalent handling wise i could start with?
The lag you see from players with poor connections has actually improved a lot.
Check out this old clip from a daily race.
Imagine trying to race next to this Argentinian dude.
It looks like he was stealing a wifi signal from someone who lives two blocks away.
I was going to give advice on this, but....I thought it was DT Gardens II. I am probably happier being reminded that it's Seaside II. Considering it's a sprint race with no pit stop, the FF cars will be out in force. But, a properly wheeled RWD car will give them fits.
At Gardens II (when I read the track wrong), the WRX was the sleeper for qualifying & I won a race in it. As for Seaside II, as I mentioned, I like the RWD cars. I like them everywhere, they're just my choice. Since you have only 1 Gr. 4 car, I'd recommend taking @sturk0167's advice. Practice with the offline modes in the game to pick up other free cars (some are Gr. 4) & money to buy what you think will be the best option or what you want. One trick will be to check out the top 10 times on Monday to see what other drivers are using. True, the car they use may not be the best for you, but it allows you to have a solid answer as to what car to get. Asking our opinions is just that: our opinion based upon our experience. Perfect example, nobody ever says the Mustang is a good choice for a car that can win. But late last year, this track came up with Gr. 3 cars & I had a great time winning in it.
It's interesting to get a more casual view on GT Sport through Reddit. The problem, they represent the make up of the average sport mode driver a lot more than the people on here. We're in the minority.
Yes I hear ya, but just saying that those Porsche curves can be tricky, I was side by side with an Italian, he was maybe like 1/3 car length ahead. I really tried to stay on the inside, but just understeered to the middle of the track and touched him. And Italian went to the sand just barely, but made him spin. He would have been fine, if he used just a bit more of an outside line, and I should have tried even harder to stay on the inside. It happens, that's racing. Been on the wrong end myself many times too on the outside line.It's interesting to get a more casual view on GT Sport through Reddit.

Side by side can work through there, have done it all the way to the pit lane. But in this case (and plenty others) he simply didn't have position and wasn't going to make the corner from that side at top speed. So it was either brake late for him and lose lots of time, or use me to make the corner.
Plenty toxic on the track. A new dirtiest driver has taken the top spot, crashing everyone on the track. And guess what, he (and the winner who escaped) were the only ones with blue S after the race. Actually the winner crashed him by fighting back so I could squeeze past not having to deal with him. I bump drafted the leader to stay ahead, cost me SR, but 2nd place good enough. Just minor loss (to 74), there were a lot of red Bs in that room.
I saved the replay, wish there was a report upload replay to PD option. I think I have another one saved from this individual. Met him before and probably will again. Another fast dirty driver just there to cause trouble.
Watch out for this driver, he has mastered manipulating the penalty system or what's left of it.

I really want to like the Gr. 4 GT-R, but after some issues with front end grip early in my time playing the game, I gave up on it. After 3 years with the game, I could likely get adjusted enough to call it competitive, but I've already spent time in other cars & taken a liking to them.
After several rounds of getting stuck on the 44 wall I finally managed to crack it this time. Just barely, buy after struggling for ages to get there I will take it. In qualifying try an earlier brake, later apex but higher overall speed on that final corner. That and nailing the chicane line got it for me.Optimal is a cruel carrot.
