Yeah 😞 all good things comes to an end

A couple of our races you had me sweating at the front, cause you were a monster the way you closed the gap between us in both of them. All I could do was not make a mistake to bring it home to the checkered flag, but watching my lead diminish in real time was distracting!

Race B cut my night short! Pace is picking up some! Driving standards are starting to drop mid B. A lot of desperate drivers. I called a lot of them out! And they settled in and was faster! Nobody is braking on he 1st corner just a send, I was able to go from 11th to a comfortable 4th, my last race of the night

It seems like a majority of A/B drivers are more hasty and aggressive in the B races, I noticed that when I did mine back in 2023-2024. I'll add you as a friend when I get my ps5 back, hopefully a high quality one. When the crowd gets rough, always steer clear and stay back until they calm down otherwise you may get in a crash and you'll lose your good positions. Just a tip and reminder for you when you're in high-level races.

Being cautious, aware of your surroundings and being a little slow is better than being fast and not paying attention all for getting to first or second place. That's why I don't worry about winning every single race.

For sure man, I don't either, enjoying the steps! I'd rather be consistent than anything! And yes I'd enjoy friends, so I'm not at the top of my 1 friend list

I just sent you a request there 👍

I wasn't on the top, in fact the best I ever got on my friends list was 10-15th, it varied from week to week but it was fine with me. What mattered was I was learning from my friends driving techniques and watching their replays or listening to their advice and tips. we weren't in online lobbies but we helped each other out to gain SR and DR together. Once you do about 200-300 races you'll start to get a hang of the rules and regulations, and always watch out for contact penalties. Sometimes they are strict and can affect your time.

If you do catch a penalty, you'll serve it once you cross the yellow line shown here.

This 2nd place finish really boosted my confidence coming back to Daily Races. Since firing up GT7 again just this past holiday season and after a hiatus since GT Sport in 2020, I had been so apprehensive about coming back to racing against other players online. I wanted to shake off all the rust inmediately, but I didn't want to be ruining other people's races by going too hard too soon.

Surviving this race long hounding from two other players, with some hard racing thrown in.... I'm sure a win would've felt good, but this 2nd place finish showed me that maybe I didn't lose as much of my racecraft as I thought. 🙂

Got a rare win today! Been a scrappy, frustrating, week at RBR, lots of door banging and dive bombing, but finally had a clean race. Started P9, got up to the sharp end with two drivers battling behind me, and then P1 binned it on the last lap. The two guys battling behind ended up P3 and P4 and were thanking each other for the clean racing in the chat. Makes a nice change from the usual name calling!
