Most of my issues have been self inflicted. I wouldn’t say they have been dirty drivers in my lobbies but it’s more down to they need to understand when and where to stick a nose in and if they gone off the track to realise the car handles different for a few corners.
BTCC is great fun. Like you say they run bumper to bumper in a 4/5/6 car train and somehow all still manage to complete a lap with no damage or punting each other off.
Plato and Neal always had some great fights which nearly always ended up with a push to pass.
@Fezzik this has to be the best BTCC clip ever

You'd be fine - against any decent opposition I'm nowhere close enough at that point to make a move. Too cautious through Paddock Hill, not using all the kerb on Graham Hill, consistently wrong line through Surtees. I can make up some time in the 2nd half, but losing so much at the beginning. My quali times are pretty subpar (and this is one of my good tracks).

Yeah I used to play that - if I remember correctly you could put a cheat in & get a tank?
We need tanks in GT7, only way to avoid getting punted in some races!

That's the game that got me hooked on proper racers (I never liked Ridge Racer or the arcade types).

Great games, still waiting for Codemasters to recapture that vibe again, the GRID series just doesn't do it for me.

If I remember correctly, it was quite difficult (not to spin the car), and it had a surprisingly good AI. Even other cars coming after me to retaliate when I had punted them. And I loved the tracks. Snetterton, Knockhill, Oulton Park... Would love to see some of them in GT7.

Getting back to the actual dailies, it may just be me but I'm feeling much more of a difference this week between the mediums and hards. A lot less grip on the RHs. It's putting me off driving some cars because they use up too much fuel and I'd need to do more laps on the bad tyres.
In single player I use hards most of the time in the race car (eg WTC) events and lap times/grip are much closer to the other compounds.
Perhaps it's just a Brands phenomenon.

Tried the McLaren at Bathurst, feels fantastic across the top, great turn in. Managed a 2.04.7. Jumped in the Z4 and BANG, 2.03.7.
Supra did a 2.04 flat. Cannot use anything else as I can't trust the rears on exit and TC is ridiculous.

A "load cell" is slang for when an inmate is bored and lonely in his prison cell so he takes a load off. Quite disturbing 🫣

You're all wrong because no other series runs a proper engine......... NA 2 litre 4 bangers, for the love of god. Milk comes in 2 litre containers not engines.

Ha!
Back in 95, just before Super Tourers tried to take over Australian touring car racing, I went to the Bathurst 1000 which was mixed class. 2 BMW's ran nose to tail for nigh on 7 hours, on paper it was great racing but man they were anemic. A 5 litre V8 blasting out of Hell Corner, up mountain straight, just a totally visceral experience.

You realize it is the road course right? Actually a pretty fun combo, just tested a GTI and a K swapped Integra. handles better on comfort softs than you would think.

I'll never forget my first VLN race at the Nurb. Foggy weather, I was sitting in the stands right at T1, couldn't see more than 100 meters up the main straight. When the race started, I heard a roaring sound, which got louder and louder, and all of a sudden the first 30 cars, three or four wide all over the track, appeared thundering at full speed out of the mist, with two big Bentleys leading the pack. It was mindblowing.
