I'm going the opposite direction. I'll blow all my budget on buying the best car I can get to be competitive. I will lose in the overall championship since that's based on credits but I'll have more fun racing
I was going to buy a new one for the next round this Sunday, but the CR-X surprised me by running competitive times at the 400 pp tracks. However, when there is that next boost to 425 pp, I might need to change my strategy.

I had a problem tonight with my DFGT.In the middle of a race just stopped working.I unplugged and plugged in again the usb and started working again.That happened 2 times so it's not normal.I will return it on Monday but at the race of Sunday I will be a little nervous.

I was having a similar dilemma with the CR-X, then figured if I am going to end up buying a car for the last series anyway why not benefit from that car now
, not like it will make much of a difference for me and my cottage cheese like consistency in lap times... But for the more solid drivers seems to make sense 
Also, awesome practice yesterday had a lot of fun... Hope I didn't make any eyes bleed with my hideous TRD color scheme

Round 1 at Brands Hatch I'm seeing times right where they need to be. At Suzuka I'll need to implement a "Balance of Performance" (BoP) as the car is too fast there.
It is the slowest here. I had the same issue at GVS during the last Cup, so the trend continues. With luck I will pull a little from a draft here and there to make it more competitive.
May be you should try tsukuba

The CRX was hopeless at all three 425pp city tracks (at least 3s off the pace). You could do it as you are guaranteed 15000cr no matter how slow you run. I still prefer to have fun

The car I would buy it's 2000cr more expensive than the money I have so I'll go with Civic EG again.It's still fast for Brands and Suzuka.I'll struggle at my favourite Tsukuba but it's ok.I will try to limit my losses.If I participate to the 425pp I'll have a quick car for all 3 tracks.PLEASE scedule one hour earlier the Novice Cup.I would be grateful!!

Lap Count is up.
Note: Also the time will be changing for the last race on the 2nd November due to the clocks changing in EU the week before and NA that weekend to 20:30GMT.
Its the best compromise we could make with the time and it should just allow people who want to watch the Gp live to join, but the first race will start at the above time.
P.s I'll change the time when I get to a PC, hopefully over the weekend.

Still working on a better option to show the cars that people bought for each event and it could take a while, but a basic table is done.
Also on the registration for each event you are able to add your racing number now.

Looks Like a Triple Post

NOTES: As you will be aware with testing some tracks if not all depending on car and driver it is possible to go under the capped lap time, please use your common sense if you run under the capped lap time.
Example's:
We understand that the cars and drivers are very different but the spirit of this is to run your best lap in your choice of car and keep within the capped lap time's so as to produce close racing, I would not pick a car were I have to purposely slow in the corner's just to keep it under the lap time, i've picked a car and power limited it where I have to push hard to keep it close to the capped lap time's. Which in my mind produced some great racing in the first 3 race's across both room's with some driver's I would normally not see on track.
Good luck, have fun and going by the first 3 race's there is no need to say keep it clean

NOTES: As you will be aware with testing some tracks if not all depending on car and driver it is possible to go under the capped lap time, please use your common sense if you run under the capped lap time.
Example's:
- Braking hard near S/F line is not acceptable, it causes problems for cars behind. Normal 3D3/WRS incident penalty's apply to this. (15 sec, 30 sec, and DQ)
- If you run a few seconds under the capped lap time do not think it is acceptable that you still must run around 2 seconds slower the next lap, use your common sense and give the time back and make sure you do not gain an advantage. Penalty's will be applied.
- Please use a main Straight if you need to slow and go off the racing line, slowing in corners causes problems. Common sense is your best friend.
- If your car is quick in a straight line it means its slower in the corners, please take this into account, remember blocking is not allowed.

To try and quantify that note, for the Amateur Cup, even though I won't be within a second of the cap at Tsukuba with my RX-7 at 400 PP, I found I had to severely limit it for the other 2 tracks. I knocked it down to 380 PP for Brands Hatch Indy and 370 PP for Suzuka East, with the hope that I won't be doing too much drafting at Suzuka.Looks Like a Triple Post

One more thing; this should eliminate the possibility of a quad post.

I'm fully planning on being online later for the races today, however there is a slight possibility that is out of my control that may force me to not be able to be there. So, if I'm not online near the time the checkered flag is going to drop, just assume that I'm not coming. That being said, I will do all in my power to be there.
