plus how would you identify bugs if you don't look at these things.
Perhaps I should have clarified.I personally think it's 'fun' to analyze these types of things like DR and understand their inner workings but that's just me
I for one agree with your statements. I have to say that since I gave up on watching my DR I have much more.fun in the races.
Yeah that's a fair point when I was reading comments on the topic I didn't think it didn't belong here. I guess that's what moderators are for
Nice attitude. I agree with most of what you said but there are dirty drivers. People that will leave space only to hip check you off the track, people that will dive up the inside with absolutely no chance to make the corner without you being there as a deflector.
So what you're saying is, you only care about what can help you, and you don't want to hear about things that don't interest you.
Daily Race Discussion is really one of the few places to discuss them - DR/SR don't get affected by anything else, other than World Series events and the like.
I had an inexplicable drop in DR during that exact same time period. I stated P2, ended P3, and lost DR.

I'll give it a go, that and the Mustang seem to be the least popular cars for some strange reason.
I've contemplated giving the RX a go but haven't because of a daft reason because it's not a real car/race car.
Aye and the sound is horrific but when you see the time start falling off you can get used to it
Yeah it's one noisy car but I'll give it a run, I try a new car and go quicker and then get complacent with where to put it in each corner, gear etc. And then feel like my consistent times become slower.Aye and the sound is horrific but when you see the time start falling off you can get used to it
I've noted the Ford GT40 being more common in the last few races as well, perhaps worth a run out, I haven't done so myself yet.
EDIT on your comment above, the Mustang isn't a real car either, I appreciate it is coming but the one in the game certainly isn't a real GT3 racer, is that not counted the same as the Mazda then?
True for me too, although I have to run TCS at 3 because I need the training wheels.
Well, if you want to think about it, none of the cars are real. It's a game. But of course I understand what you meant.
Computers only - Windows and Mac.
Don't worry, I won't hold it against you.
That is true, I should have said based on real cars 😁 I'll give them all a go, what's there to loose when someone uses my rear bumper as a brake.True for me too, although I have to run TCS at 3 because I need the training wheels.

I think we recognize our own shortcomings. We try to be the best driver out there but there are many of us that are still progressing and learning. I certainly drive a lot better than I did six months ago when I was a nooby but I recognize that sometime I cause the mayhem, though always by accident and misjudging a situation and never intentionally. I think we want to call out dirty drivers when we see them as an example of how not to drive and also bemoan the fact that when there are dirty (or just unskilled) drivers around you sometime it can be a challenge to have a clean race and drive cleanly yourself. Someone hits you with a side glance, sends you wobbly, you recover but doing that you lose speed and hit someone else with your front. In the SR system you're now that bad guy. The SR system doesn't seem to penalize for side hits; which I think is wrong.
@Cherryturbo I personally think it's 'fun' to analyze these types of things like DR and understand their inner workings but that's just me
Are you referring to my 14% DR drop post? That was more a question of how might that happen as I have never seen anything like it before. I don't think anyone else was using DR to search for bugs. If not my post what was the example?
I'm all for stories. I used to do some write ups on races but I thought people were getting tired of them so I mostly stopped.I don't think it doesn't belong here, but I personally wish for more stories about the adrenaline and the fun in the races
So nice of you. Please drive with SR B and SR C drivers. Trust me, you will start crying of dirty drivers. There's some real chads out there.
The last two days I have been suffering a lot from the hip check and corner deflector crowd. Will post a video later.
I think you must be right in that PD did a mass reset of some sort because if you got this and I did around the same time perhaps it happened to everyone.
American server but I have noticed issues popping a few times this week, like stutters, and cars zooming past their braking points only to return to their positions a few seconds later. The worst one being- I was given chase cam view of the pole sitter (not me) for a lap. Absolutely none of my controls worked. I kept watching helplessly until the game kicked me out straight to Sport page without any error code. Resulted in DR reduction. Can't say about SR as it stayed S but I might have been at 99% SR before the race.Just to know: any European server users having issues? Just got kicked off a race with an error that I’ve never had, my connection is fine…I was 5th
Yes I have seen that today but it has not affected the racing. What I have seen are a lot more racers from South America today and some race B lobbies that weren't full.
Not a server issue but on one of my races I lost wheel controls just upon entering Eau Rouge. Not good! I was a victim of the dreaded Fanatec DD axle drift issue. Second time I have had to reseat it in the 6 weeks I've had it (and four weeks I've been able to play with it). Pretty bad QC by Fanatec there.
