Refering to the bolded part, everyone that manage to survive luck fiesta on day1 and get into the top10 will have a proper 20min qualy session in day2 prior to first race, which is good of course. The tricky part is, that it seems it's going to be Alsace N500 qualy (I love the combo btw) and the cars for day2(race 1&2) will be awarded to the players on the last briefing of day1 completely random!
It sounds like instead of racing, they should just have the final 10 drivers play a few rounds of Blackjack
If only a solution that has been suggested by the community existed... *cough* *cough* ONEMAKE *cough* ahem... Sorry, bad cold
I’m loving the GT 90’s and I hate their combo ideas as well...You have to wonder what on Earth they are smoking with these combos. Asia/Oceania having the repechage at the worst race track in the game in extremely unbalanced N300 cars and Europe getting extremely unbalaned GrB cars at RBR. Don't even get me started on the complete waste of disk space that is Alsace. I'm now fully expecting Horse Thief Mile in N1000 cars for American Regionals at this rate!
Makes me glad I missed out in Nations. For Manufacturers the worst that can happen is they throw in a reverse layout, the car is obvious and something you've chosen anyway. No need to worry about a silly N class race which is 100% decided by car choice but pleases the old school GT crowd still living in the 90s
For the Asia finals the briefing document had the list of cars available for every race and we were told to prioritise cars in the list for selection because the top 10 would be making selections in the briefing room straight after the stream was finished. I agree it's unfair but it didn't take that long to do it. Completely random assigning of cars would be interesting but I don't really want to see luck play too much of a factor, unless the cars are genuinely even. At least the X2014 final race for double points is where skill will hopefully shine.
For me it's basically impossible to get in the world championship because if I make it to the repechage race I will start last and I would have to overtake 7 really fast drivers
That's what I meantThe fact that the Repechage isn't at the very least seeded by your finish position in your block race is pretty silly
Imagine for a second, that someone goes from 10th to 3rd in their Block race but then has to start from the back again in the shorter Repechage race where people are less likely to overtake due to the slower cars... Absolute ascendant PD logic.
Oh yeah, lets not forget, that guy would also have the worst car in both races as well.
always nice to have a native speaker to help
Oh I completely missed that detail, it does say ranking again indeed so unless I get 2nd place in block race A, I will be punished again in repechage race with a bad starting position, damnThe fact that the Repechage isn't at the very least seeded by your finish position in your block race is pretty silly

Tough to do when the repechage combines two races. You'll have two guys that finish the block race at the same position.....seed by finish time then maybe?

At least the hotel is nice, will try to have fun and not think about the competition too much...
I must find someone to buy me one and send them the money with PayPal.
). My Japanese teammate seems pretty clear he's competing in both Nations and Manufacturers for the World Finals.. I believe they've already decided the World Final location and date so why not give all of us qualified for it notice so we can arrange time off in advance (also saves them a lot of money on flights the earlier they can book it!). I really need to arrange my time off work shortly and I'll have to rely on 'sources' this week which is ridiculous.
Also they really need to give greater notice to those competing about dates of upcoming competitions. Contrary to popular belief most top guys actually have jobs or studies
