New Beginners Race in Seasonal Error 2/10/2014

[SVPSkins]

Hiya guys

just had a go at the first of the three new races in seasonals with my Xbow was doing really well, i did 4 and half laps and saw the car leading had a big wing and i was like what is that, never seeing a road on on GT6 with such a big wing. i look at the race order list, its only a Pug 905 Evo race car and its meant to be road cars only. WHAT!!!

Talk about catch the rabbit! Interesting glitch.

These Seasonals each week are becoming like a box of chocolates, you never know what cha gonna get. (odd cars, money glitch, etc.)

We also have a return of collision penalties at spa.

That is absolutely hilarious. Now let's try to beat that cheating punk! 👍
Edit: Did they already fix it? Can't seem to get it to show up in the race no matter how many times I refresh it.

With all these glitches might have to change to different brand of chocolates.
I also got the 905, three times in a row, and three times in a row lost.

Dawn that's a 🤬 rabbit! Mines were Audi R8 4.2 and BMW M4. I did that event with Ruf 3400S and I try twice to get the gold. 👍

If you manage to get easy opponents, this event is a pretty easy and quick money maker.

I smell a rat. I don't believe for one minute that the rabbits I have raced at spa are within 50pp of 500pp. If, after doing 3 laps at 2-32-5, I get near the lead rabbit, it just accelerates away like it has a full bottle of nitrous. I am doing 230 k's and it is making me look stationary. At 500 pp. Doubt it. I have done the race maybe 8 times for 8 second places, driving flawlessly, only to be completely blown away by the lead Ferrari. One race I made the lead at the beginning of lap 4 and drove the tyres off my wrx, only to be monstered at the beginning of last lap, then watched in dis-belief as rabbit just disappeared away from me. Something aint right.

In Spa, sometimes I can pass the leading cars by lap 4 or even lap 3 and win by more than 20 seconds. Sometimes they just pull away whenever I try to pass them and I end up losing the race.

BTW, I'm talking about replaying the same race against the same cars.

The AI is very random and unpredictable.

I have had same experience.
Used GT-R as I thought 4WD would be better in wet conditions, instead I got blown away out of hairpins etc by light RWD cars, I have come up against R390, Enzo and Cerbera as lead rabbit and have not got within 15 seconds at race end.

Just got signed out in middle of race and cannot log in, is PD doing something ?

I don't think I can beat R390 or Enzo with my crappy R32 Skyline.

The toughest opponent I'd faced was the regular Zonda, and I even had to turn on SRF to win the race.

I guess I have to try this event again with a better car. People were complaining A-spec seasonals being too easy, I guess they've finally got what they wanted.

 

[SJC ALPHA]

I do not mind the difficulty, it just sesms that wet conditions only apply to me and not the AI.

And the saddest fact of all: It was only 2 seconds faster than a KTM.

Probably going into pit each lap or the AI is just a ridiculously bad driver.

Expert race, suzuki GSXR/4 no rain tires. Started with 36seconds behind leader, ended with 31 seconds in front of leader.
You benefit in the corners, Ai is faster on straight, but loose lot of time in corners, that's were you win time.


Intermediate, Mustang Boss 302 '13, just added 2kg to get 500pp
3 seconds win in front of the leader.


Beginner, Honda NSX-R Prototype LM roadcar, added weight 80kg,reduce power to 550
Close win.
Second car i used the AMG VGT vision, reduce power to 550pp, has more understeer, but also a win.
Again the beginner events was more fun, the win was always less then a second in front of the leader.

 

[SVPSkins]

either ive improved massively as a gamer/driver or the Intermediate (used my '66 GT40) & Expert (used my ZZII) races were genuinely easy. won both races first time trying, which is a first for me

I would agree on the super mega acceleration of the AI at Spa. I had a nice lead in my Golf VI R 10 going into Blanchimont. Here comes that rabbit looking like it was shot out of a gun, and then BAM it punts me into the barrier at the bus stop. I mean, really?
