Usually on a Wednesday night I can complete the 4 races of the featured challenge and 3 of the open series in about 3 to 3 1/2 hours. Tonight it took me 4 hours just to complete the featured challenge and the D open series.
This was one of the worst AI sessions I've ever seen. The bashing and the brake checking were just on another level even more than usual. I think I had at least 8 or 9 restarts at Daytona. Every single time at the kink between the International horseshoe and the Western horseshoe, if you're within a couple of car lengths, the car in front is going to jam on it's brakes. Turn 6 and in the middle of the LeMans chicane are two other places they are going to almost come to a stop. If you try to swerve around them you just run off track or spin out. Watkins Glen was fairly decent, only a couple of restarts there. But Indianapolis and Road Atlanta were just as bad as Daytona. To be fair I did hurt myself at Road Atlanta by spinning the car out at Turn 7 three times including once on the last lap. That has to be the number 1 corner where I spin out prototypes.
Now to the SC63. I would rate the BMW ahead of it. The Lamborghini has difficulty tuning at low speeds and the gearing is strange. 2nd gear turns in other prototypes are 3rd or even 4th in the Lambo. But it does seem like Turn 10 learned their lesson from the Cadillac V Series as each LMDh introduced since then has been much better.
One positive thing that happened was that final Daytona race. Coming into Speedway turn 4 I was right on the tail of the leader and got beside them coming out of 4. The leaderboard was flickering us back and forth it was that close. I think we touched just before the line but it was one of the closest races I've had.
