Also sorry about the double post, my internet is still unpredictable.

I have 1 more short clip of yesterday's race at Dragon Trail Seaside. All of us are SR rank S. Turned out the be quite a big mess there, just too many cars in 1 place and everyone wants to gain positions. Looking back at it I wonder why I didn't just follow @Sjaak, would've been so much easier. 
He's the only one who came out of it unharmed I think. 
Also look at @eminem09494's car, quite some damage.
Looks good to be honest, the damage that is, not that he's been hit probably like 10 times already.

Finally nailed on the Megane's setting. That thing really has a penchant to understeer.

Here's my Nurburgring run. I'll improve on my craft, for sure.

Have there been any rolling starts yet and does anyone have video of one?

Since yesterday every race I made had a rolling start and it is so much better now.

Especially at Brands Hatch. Turns 1-3 were a nightmare after standing starts.

Except for the Ring. I'm not sure that starting so far back helps - incidents before we even get to the start line!

I just plain don't know if I'm going to be in a more chaotic race than this one.

I posted my fastest N300 time at Willow yesterday in the Lotus Evora, just seconds before the last race of the day had started, 1:30.384. I decided to turn ABS on to mild for this run, as I find the brakes are a bit harder to modulate in the 1.0.6 update. I think this was just a tenth shy of @MOPARbarrett5's TTS time
Captured a few screenshots as well. Love this British Racing Green (?) on the Evora.
Also, the physics for low speed burnouts seems to be fixed. It is possible to do burnouts/donuts now far more realistically than before. The car does not snap-spin once a revolution anymore, meaning you can more easily drift in a small circle and slowly make it larger. I spent some time doing donuts just to see what the tire marks on the track would look like.
And one of the headlights (which look fantastic) for good measure.

That's well done I have to say. I was afraid they'd do rolling starts with the cars just a few metres apart whereas they really needed to be spread out so that the only person you have to worry about is the guy beside you for the first couple of corners. It could be a little tighter for the short sprints but it's a massive improvement over the standing starts and now you can use any drivetrain without worrying about getting run over at the start.
In a 7-10 or more lap race I think this will work out quite well. As an added bonus it should have a positive effect on frame rate stability at the start of the race. Well done PD:tup:👍

The whole racetrack is a mess in GR.4, with a lot of people which don't know either their cars behaviour, or the track. There is such little space to overtake slower cars, it's crazy with 18 drivers. I mean it's not professional like the 24H. So the rolling start helps a bit, even from so far behind.
Agreed. Especially the advantage of the AWD cars at the standing starts are negated. It was always very frustrating to have a 5 sec gap (or more) in qualifying with maybe a FWD car, standing in the first row and then falling back to place 10 or worse, because of the wheelspin.
So it is an improvement and helps a lot with certain cars.

I agree generally, but from a standing start there wasn't usually a whole lot of silliness in T1 because there's no chance to build speed before it, unlike other tracks. What happens with the current rolling start is up to 150 mph, then down to 2nd gear, chancer overtakes of any queue, a bunch up into the turn before the start line, with predictable jostling and carnage, and then same again into T1. IMO, it's definitely worse. Couldn't Auto-Drive take us closer to the start, to keep the spacing?
And I'm not saying it out of bitterness; I actually gained 2 or 3 places in all 3 races due to starting quite low down the grid, just driving past people who'd been pushed off.
Also, it's a PITA qualifying N300, with nearly a minute to run before the start line.

I think the dominance of the GT-Rs is finally over. Way to go VW.
And congrats @Firehuntah
Bah! Oh well, I had 1st for a while
@Firehuntah is usually quicker than me with a GT-R anyway!

I understand your point and I agree, the rolling start at the Nürburgring is not solved very well, but even if the Auto Drive brings you near the start, the last section and the section with the starting places would be the same bottleneck.
We don't have the luxury of the 24H race with a 5 car wide finish line to start from. And we don't have all professional drivers out there. I saw the starts of the 24H Nürburgring with 40 cars heading full speed into the first corners of the GP course, just wow. There where no accidents if I remember correctly.
But you can't make that in an virtual racing game. You have people with wheels, others with controllers. You have people who know their cars and the track, others don't. You have different setups for the cars (different brake points, all sorts of reactions from different cars).
There always be chaos in open online races I think.
Last time I looked (one hour ago) there was a SLS on 1st place. But the top ten usually changes a lot in the first hours.Bah! Oh well, I had 1st for a while
