The one thing I do hate about the Ring is that final sequence, it's so difficult to safely navigate those final curves when fighting for position.

Yeah, the whole track is sort of like that, but especially the last few corners with the win on the line and the chasers usually have a huge run on you after the long back straight. You really need a willing dance partner and someone who knows when to fight and when to lay back. When it all clicks, it is so fun and so satisfying.

I think it's OK to share this crude video of yesterday's race with @Dairyworker as we've established there is no ill-intent in our coming together. It was a great, pressure packed race that while it ended in tears, was super exciting and a real blast to be part of. Great display of sportsmanship there, too.

And yes, the pressure is higher when there's another GT Planet member involved.

Great racing at the Ring, thanks again for the fun race.

Almost as fun to watch as it was to run. Man it hurts to watch the ending though lol

I actually was gonna share the replay myself when i got home from work, although I'm not sure i saved it tbh

It's very hard to be clean early in races, if you brake too early you will get sent to Narnia so you need to brake as late as you can to the man I front without hitting him.....really tricky stuff.

I can’t get to B or C this week as I am too addicted to A again, ive never been a big fan of A but the past few weeks have really got me hooked into it.

I’m so addicted I don’t even think ill bother with the GTWS later today, that 911 is pure evil, if that’s how its drives in real life i am not buying one when i win the lottery, I wont be rich for long cos ill be deed within the first couple days of owning it.😇

Got my time down to 7,58:132 but my optimal time is low 7,56:xxx, gotta keep pushing…. I’m coming @GOTMAXPOWER you best do another blindfolded lap to keep me off you.

On the race, provided there no aliens in the race it easily gets me pole position and provided I don’t bin it, the win is mine for the taking

Nice lap and game on! I haven't raced the Nurburgring since Monday morning but will have to get some more in before the end of the week.

I don't do daily races much but I jumped into one at the ring today and I guess my pace is just too much for my level (C,S) because my qualifying lap was ten seconds faster than anyone in my lobby. I drove pretty leisurely and was well ahead of second place at the line. I had hoped for a little more of a battle but second place couldn't get near me.

It's a lot of fun though. That car is pretty capable. Might do a few more.

Managed a race B in my lunch break today which I hoped would fair better than Monday when I was punted off first corner 😁 that was in the supra and didn’t much like that

Tried the Porsche today and managed to get my QT down to 1.38.1xx and a 37s is there for the taking.

Touch wood the chicane hasn’t got me yet 😉

Hope yr all having a good week and your racing is shaping up 👍

Been trying race B this week. Haven't done a Gr3 race in so long, I've lost quite a bit of speed. So trying at the moment to get some spatial awareness back and just make it to the end. I then had a really good race above until the game decided to give me a stupid penalty.

The Mercedes was very apologetic, even though I felt he didn't need to be. It wasn't anyone's fault but those two seconds ruined my race.

There really is no excuse for that penalty, just sheer laziness from PD. Hopeless.
