I've nearly done it, you get used to doing one thing in the pits so you do it. Twice I've mistakenly started on softs due to qualifying and when I pit I just hit X and you can't go back, I've tried it doesn't work. Now I'll take the hit and pit again, but your race is ruined so I can understand why some just don't bother and I'll bet some don't even know the tyres they are on so are clueless that they made a mistake.
Yeah, to be honest, that was an absolute car crash. And not in the sense of a possible front-right to rear-left contact when viewed through the lens of a lag-affected replay, but a full-on, head-on collision between two vehicles inexplicably both driving the wrong way down a one-way street at 70mph.
It shouldn't have started in the first place - and will be dealt with - but it stops here.
Yeah my bad on both accounts. As always thank you all drwf drivers your patience and kindness. Very late apologies to @Groundfish and @Pigems for the cocky attitude when I first found this awesome community.I keep forgetting that was you. Now we worry about you when you get lost at the Porsche dealer.
If you did your research you could have picked one of the slower TPC drivers like me and felt pretty good about yourself. But you chose Pigems.
As of late I'm now back down to a D-S and is all because that I am not as good a driver as I believed to be, and some of my bad driving has caused my being punted aside for just cause. I do not blame them, I shall try harder to improve but i will be taking a sabbatical from the dailies until i am more confident with my skills.
I think is all about having confidence with the car/circuit. I choose one race per week and i practice just on that one. And i keep improving all the week. If i start to mix cars, change race all the time it starts to be a mess. That’s what i do. Trying to be consistent. But just racing online u can improve.
It would be nice, but it's easy to muck up. If your not paying enough attention to everything happening you might not realise the guy behind has just pitted and have no idea what tyres he's on. See IRL the driver has a team telling him what to do (at least suggestions) but we have to do everything ourselves.
If someone's obviously faster than me, I usually let them through - unless it's the last lap of a race. But there has been numerous times I've seen someone behind me close a 3-4 sec gap over two laps. I almost always let them through (unless they're a massive donkey.)
The trap is set. Now we wait.
I liken it to going to the gym. Say you wanna get in shape and just bought a gym membership. You can go online and do some research to decide which exercises are best for you, decide what kind of diet you'll go on, etc. But eventually you gotta go or else it's called paralysis by analysis.
You should look up Daily racing with friends here on GTP and turn up for those Fridays. You will get to race friendlies that are clean while having fun and learning racecraft.
