Going with Peugeot.
Rushed to a the 4pm GT2 slot after work.
Q11, with 3:21
Racing was going well. Reached P7.
Got punted twice by the same guy...
I started following the guy 1mm bumper to bumper waiting for a mistake. Driving angry .. not good
I pass him, then later my tire hit the grass while breaking... And lost it.
Finished P13, did not hit any car.
Need to try again once I get my zen back.

Well, that was a pleasant surprise! I wasn't expecting much given that I'd only run 3 laps of practice, but hey, I love this track.
Asia GT1 slot 2, going with Lexus this season.
Door 16 in a full A+ lobby with about 270 points for 1st.
Put in a reasonable qualifying lap for 8:08.0 which was good enough for P3! Stoked with that! Pole was 8:06.5
What was more surprising was the quality of driving - I have pretty low expectations of Manu from previous experiences, but this was very civil and excellent racing. End of lap 1, I was 2 seconds off the lead in 3rd and feeling good. Continued well without incident, I felt I was holding up the guy behind me a little so indicated for him to pass down the long straight at the end of the lap, he gave me a flash of the hazards and went on by. I followed him into the pits in P4, 3 seconds off the lead.
Fast forward to the final lap, I'm P4, about 5 seconds off the lead and 2 seconds behind P3. And about 10 seconds ahead of 5th.
In typical me fashion, I push too hard when I could have settled for a comfortable 4th - this time at the exit of Bergwerk trying to maximize exit speed, clip the fence on the exit and get damage, costing me about 5 seconds... I watch painfully as the two cars behind edge closer in every high speed section, and inevitably, they catch me on the final run down Dottinger Hohe and I drop to 6th.
Ah, what could have been. 199 points, and wishing I had the energy to stay up for the midnight race.

Only had to work 4 hours so decided to try again on my alt.
75pts for first, door 14.
Qualified on P2.
Holy moly what a awesome race. The driver in P1 and myself drove a little away from P3 and had a great and fair battle over the entire race. Some parts were I was faster and some were they were.
Got 72pts for second so I'm very happy and really really enjoyed that one.

Wow, this round really was a battle of attrition. Slot 1 and 2 were basically disasters, due to car damage and getting into battles I should have avoided.
Slott 3: I really took my time in the outlap to preserve my tyres, and crossed the line in a respectable 8:07.1xx The only problem was, GOTMAXPOWER was in my lobby and i was waiting in 3rd for quali to finish, before he destroyed us all with an 8:05. I started the race in 4th, my best position so far of the 3 slots. 4 Porsches on the first 2 rows and a Corvette behind me in 5th. We all got away without any incident from the GP track and into the forest, where I settled into my driving. 3rd place (SR7_Polesitter) spun on Lap 1 which meant I moved into the podium position, with GOTMAXPOWER leading the race, followed by Heat0n93. All of us driving Porsches. I made a slight error on lap 2, which was followed by a bigger error from Heat0n93 later, on lap 2. And then the Corvette driver dropped the ball just before the Dottinger straight. I came into the pits at the end of an eventful lap 2 in 2nd place,
(behind GOTMAXPOWER) who had now built up an 8 sec lead, from all the mistakes ŵe made behind him. I came out of the pits knowing this was my chance to grab a podium, and I drove an almost faultless race to the end, to take 286 pts with GOTMAXPOWER taking the spoils of
299 pts. A truely epic end to a great race. I missed out on the fastest Lap by a 10th which meant GOTMAXPOWER took all 3 stars and probably a clean race bonus, because he was pretty much faultless. I finish Round 1 in position 100 EMEA. Let's see if I can stay there?

Well that went just peachy. NA GT1 first slot.
Q'd in 8th. Got rammed into at the first turn and got some nice rear end damage for my troubles. Then a little later on the GP track got nudged off into the grass to find myself in dead last. Pitted @ the end of the first lap. Worked back to 12th so I wouldn't be completely demoralized. Will try for slot 2 in just a bit and hope for a better result and no one hitting me.
You know I thought this heavy damage was a good idea at first as hopefully it would make people drive cleaner and more cautious. I think that lasted for about 5 minutes. I'm ready to go back to light damage, especially on a track with an 8+ minutes laptime.

Following up on the Renault RS01 saga. Found some more pace with a free practice time of 8.09.
Slot 1 GT1 EMEA (209 points)
Q7 with 8.12. pole was 8.09
Trouble in the first few corners and I find myself in P4 nearing the end of the first lap.
However at the fast right bend after Bellofs S I lose the rear due to overheating tyres. Really weird place to spin but ok. Damage and p13. Pit at the end of the lap and managed to climb back to P10 by the last lap with a portuguese in a BRZ following close. Exiting the karrousel I spin and more damage. Crawl back home in p14.
Slot 3 (207 points)
Q13 with 8.20 (brake too late at the end of dotinger and meet the grass and Mr Barry R) was on for a 8.10
Pole was 8.09 again
Clean start and was p10 after T1 and T2 as a GTR hits the barrier in the inside of T2, but luckily gets ghosted just in time for most to get by. Plenty of battling ahead and an Ukrainian Porsche in p6 bumps someone off track going into the GP hairpin. 5 sec penalty for him. Into the nordschleife and this Ukrainian bumps TWO other cars trying to pass him and crashes himself in turn 1 into the nordschleife. Insta quit. Shameful driver really.
So now I'm p6 followed by a Belgian driving for scuderia Ferrari. Really close pace to him but he never managed but make a pass happen. At the end of the first lap, at the end of the dotinger all manners of chaos ensues and I find myself P2 , after 4 cars crash going into the final chicanes. 10s off the lead at this point.
All 4 crashed cars pit and I keep on going to try to build some gap.
At the end of lap 2 I come in with the leader. P5 out of the boxes as 3 of the crashed cars managed to undercut me. Even in clean air my race pace was really lacking and the dudes ahead just started to disappear. Guess the crash in the first slot made too cautious. Had a good battle with a Porsche in the final lap for p5 but a couple of mistakes after the foxhole made me lose p5.
Try to follow as close as I can but in the very same spot where I crashed in Slot 1 I do it again. Damage and 3 positions lost.
Finished P8 for 142 points. Really brutal experience and such a frustrating ending to an otherwise good race.

Slot 1 (7PM ET) of GT1 in North America. I was in door #13, driving for Dodge. All A/S lobby. 163 points up for grabs. @flip6981 was there, too.
I qualified Q7 with a time of 8:19.166, which was over a second better than the best I had posted in Free Practice, so I was happy with that.
The race was pretty clean and close. I gained and lost places here and there as the race went on. Got a half-second track limit penalty on lap 2, but by then the field was spread out enough that it didn't result in any lost positions. I pitted on lap 2 and took fresh tires.
Finished in P6 for 129 points and small DR increase. I'll take it.

Slot 2 10PM GT1 race in Asia/Oceania.
Frustrating quali! Got caught behind a slow driver on the out lap at Sprunghugel. Couldn't tell if they were braking or accelerating, which ended with me hitting the barrier and taking damage. Tried to push through, but the downforce loss made Tiergarten a disaster (resulting in heavier damage). Should've just slowed way down and left the decision out of another driver's hands. Went back to the pits for repairs, but no time for a quali lap. P16 with no time entered.
Narrowly avoided carnage at Flugplatz and just proceeded to punch in consistent laps (only briefly went wide in one corner which cost a second - this was fine because it allowed me to follow the lead pack's pace). Pitted lap 3 (no tires or fuel taken) and came out in P8 (about 4 seconds behind the car in front). I caught up by the time we headed into Nords but then found myself grappling with two cars who had damage. I've uploaded a clip of the last 5 minutes of that battle.
The provided screenshots are a spoiler alert of that clip, but regardless, I was happy with the fight back and banked 132 points, race left me thinking of what could've been as I think a top 5 quali was possible.
Wasn't able to run slot 1 due to a league race and a midnight race for slot 3 was never happening.

NA GT1 slot 1. Q10: endend P11.
I had a good start but behind me was a usual "first lapper try hard" pushing in tight spaces, touching everyone around him so I received rear damage. He made his way past me and later took himself out while pushing on another guy. Unfortunately, I made a mistake and I rejoined the end pack with "the pusher". I passed him while he was serving his penalty on the straight. All the damaged lost souls, including me, pitted at the end of lap 1 and we were all stuck again with the "try hard" driver who pushes so hard his car to the limit that eventually got off track again soon after. Finally, I held up the best I could and made my way to P11.
Slot 2 : I was qualifying when I received this message:
Disconnect because lost of data.
VoilĆ !

A little better for slot 2....I see @A_Higher_Place in there 
Q'd in 6th, was running up in 4th for a good bit but gave up the spot on the 2nd half of the last lap. Meh, I'm OK with 5th place on this one I think, done for the night.

After a couple practice laps (the first with a spin, the second a slow 8:39.6) and a practice pit stop, I deemed myself "ready" for 3 laps of carnage, mostly because it was already closing in on 8 pm CDT.
I wore door #2 in a full D/S room, with 19 points up for the win. I was the only Chevrolet, with 4 Porsches, 3 Toyotas, 3 Ferraris, a McLaren, a Jaguar, a newer Nissan, an older Lexus, and an older Ford Spec II, One of the Toyotas dropped out during qualifying, so my no-time sent me off in 15th and a guaranteed 8 points. Pole was 8:30.6 from one of the Porsches, and had my practice time been used for qualifying, I would have been about midpack.
The race wasn't good. I had a bit of an off on lap 1 while trying to avoid some carnage, so I came down for my stop. I eventually got onto the back bumper of 7th, while the driver who took the checkered flag first, well ahead of everybody else, didn't pit. That 7th-place driver made a mistake on the last corner, so I took advantage, and while I didn't officially take the checkered flag because of that, I was credited with a full 3 laps (the last of 7 to get that), 52.3 seconds behind the declared winner, 14 points, and surprisingly a clean race. That non-pitting driver got 3rd even after his 1-minute penalty, only 19.5 seconds off the winner.

I couldn't decide between audi and amg, so I flipped a coin. AMG it is for another go-round.
It was kinda nice to run this in the dry, I've started associating Nurb with rain in my brain.
Lobby worth 195pts. Qualy was a tad off, Q11. Thank goodness, I noticed PD were aggressively ghosting at the hairpin (turn 2?), so got away clean. Picked up a few places, pit lap 2 (thought about going around again, but decided to be conservative and get fresh tires). Kept the pace to finish P7. A few grass cutters likely cost me the crb, but no real problems. Eh, I'll take it.

A day to forget š . In slot 1, I got into a pretty strong split and wasn't doing too bad, but someone hit me and damaged my car. That was it.
In slot 2, I did a fairly reasonable qualifying, but I lost some positions in the first lap with all the chaos and then spun out on my own on lap 2.
I finished in 12th, with disappointing 191 points on one of my favorite tracks. But that's s life! Bring on round 2 š

Didnāt come in with high hopes for the McLaren at this venue but it was a great drive and I enjoyed it throughout. @JDMKING13 was in there with me too but he was towards the front far away from my pace š
Started p10 posting about 2 seconds off my best time. It was a laughable moment when the guy right behind me says ā no t1 heroes ā in chat. I watched him in action and he didnāt disappoint. Pushing past a few cars to move 2 spots up in the train š¤·š»āāļø
Had a great first few laps and pitted on lap 3 to see if I could gain some places since it looked like everyone was pitting lap one. After lap 3 I came out of the pits in p10 for the final lap and just tried to make time but not overcook anything.
It worked well because I got close enough to p9 and p10 that I was able to gain 2 places as they crashed in the final turn.
Overall great clean racing was had. I ran the best fastest race I am capable of and happy with p8 finish.

My best finish on this track, but shouldāve been better. 2nd GT1 Americas slot, first race in the McLaren. Number 10 in a 164 point lobby. Only had a few minutes of warmup but felt solid.
Qualifying was great, put it on pole by over a second (8:16.xxx) feeling smooth. Not much to say, stayed in the pits a couple minutes to leave a big gap and ran a smooth lap in clean air.
Race starts, I nail turns 1-2 and open up I nice 1 second gap heading onto the nordschleife. I build a bit of a gap until after the carousel and it shrinks back to just under a second (Iām really weak between the carousel to the ājumpā). Coming up to the mini-carousel and I spin it and tap the wall, dropping back to 7th. So my strat of āpit the lap I get damageā comes in to play. Fortunately only front bumper so I donāt lose too much time on the Dottenger.
A bunch pit behind me, so I retain 7th and start my recovery. Good clean laps gaining on the lead. After the lap 2 pitters I take over 5th, same Porsche from the first lap a few seconds in front of me. I run him down slowly and make the pass on the Dottenger. Set the provisional fast lap in the process (8:16 again) which I lose a few seconds later.
Going into T1 in 4th now, I slot in behind another Porsche. Iām able to hang with him until the carousel again and lose just a bit of time. Get to the Dottenger and heās weaving all over to break the tow. I get right up to him but canāt close the deal so ride his bumper to finish line for 4th.
Overall positive result + Pole + CRB, but I had the pace for P2 or maybe even P1 without the spin so Iāve got mixed feelings. Rouletted got me 500k credits though so a good haul between that and the race credits!
Anyway, on to Brazil!

1st race was terrible for me.. I think I saw @Yard_Sale in thereā¦ who was crazy fast.. I could of took P7 but I lost it at I believe YouTube corner and caught damageā¦ The ring is just tough for me.. I did. 8:08.9 in TT but for some reason I cannot find the pace during the actual raceā¦
Race two went better but I still couldnāt find my paceā¦ I also got a penalty during qualifying so that hurt me putting me in P9ā¦ During the race I was confident in the 458 but Iām just baffled how I couldnāt run a decent timeā¦ my pace was good enough for me to land me P5 which is cool but Iām a lil disappointed in my overall pace. Nice seeing you @Dep Fishtail thatās was a great finish by you in the end! Letās do work in Brazil š§š·

NA GT1 slot 2: I Bounced back. Q9, finished P7.
I would have a lot to say about this race, my opponents and me but I will spare you from my complaining and use this for my experience.
Todays lesson. I learned that in the qualifications, cars that have an accident to a complete stop but slowly goes back on track are not ghosted.

Global ranking for GT1 so far:
- Hyundai with zero points. Uhh...
- Nissan is currently 18th, for which I already felt they might miss out after being the defending champion.
- Cutline battle currently looks like this:
Code:9 Genesis Partner 10 McLaren +11 11 Aston M. +7 12 Lexus +3 --- 13 Alfa R. -3 14 Peugeot -6.5 15 Honda -7 16 Lambo -10.5

I still feel that ALL results by ALL drivers should be used for a Manu ranking not just the results of one driver.
Then whoever goes to the finals is another thing and frankly not my concern.
GT7 should be inclusive and having us all be a part of a result is one way of doing that.

No surprise with Nissan. They nerfed it to the ground! But why...? It was very solid all-around car and now it's very hard to be competitive with it.
