Nurb 24 daily race

Arg... so after wrecking and getting passed, he tries late braking and going down the inside when you have the middle... either very inexperienced, or plain jackolantern move.

Indeed, he was way too far back to make the move work too... ridiculous and frustrating that I lost DR to that idiot, but what can you do?

Just another GR3 event I’ll avoid now I guess lol
 
Are these SR/S races?

I admit to be in the middle of the bunch @ start (8th) - I'm Dr C - Sr S. Ended up 5th. but an experience I wanted to share.... Thanks for your time. :)
 
That's a really unlucky draw :ill:
My qualy might be faster than his, but to maintain that pace for 2 laps in the Nurb + tire wear is just near-impossible for me... That guy's a one in a thousand!

8:15 nice! That'll guarantee you on pole for the rest of the day :lol:
Haha nope, I got put into a room with DR:S drivers after that, then one race with pole and now P2 3 seconds slower than pole.
The race where I had pole was really close, driver who won in the end didn‘t pit and I lost by 0.006 seconds, mainly because I spun out at the exit of carousel in the second lap :banghead:
 
Strategy?

I didn't have one, i was on fuel mode 1 for 85% of the first lap before I realised it was 2 laps.
I was initially going to pit but my fuel was around 40% in the Mercedes so I just carried on.
1st place pitted (that Derek guy who is always on top10 board) so I thought I might have a chance but half way through 2nd lap i was having real trouble keeping it on the road in some corners plus i had to knock fuel down to 3 i let him by as he was gaining rapidly and no way i would hold him off.
2nd was good enough, I wouldn't have beaten him if i pitted either so i would still have got 2nd at best.

Interesting strat! Sadly I can't try it anymore :(

So close :(
 
I've been playing this daily nonstop; I love it! Was able to set a time of 8:17.729. Not my best time, but good enough to land me on pole position every time :D

Haven't won yet though, all second places. I really want that win now :lol:

I’m having this trouble myself. Got a 1.16.970 can’t convert it into a win .

Edit: I’m finding 70% fuel usage per lap if I’m going full beans

Getting my ratings down to B/B was the worst idea ever :banghead:
People brake in the most useless spots, block you albeit you‘re clearly faster and if you squeeze through they just either force you off or sent you in the wall in the next corner. The last race I had today was the worst, two french friends in P2 and P3 at the start and me on pole. P3 driver takes me out at full speed, P2 driver takes the lead and pulls a third french driver throughout the two laps. As they battle I have recovered and close the gap. Fianlly closed it then on the Döttinger Höhe and slipstreaming P2 when that 🤬 🤬 🤬 brakechecks me. At the exit of Tiergarten he bins his car in the wall, I pass him only to see that the winner had a 2 second penalty which would have led to me winning if that one dude din‘t brakecheck me. My SR is now again at 48 🤬
 
What a mess... Out qualified then entire feield by 30 seconds... Turn 1, nuked from behind. Several rear-ends later, I finished the race 4th.

Dirty dirty racing.
I had 12 poles today and got two wins, that should explain everything...
 
Higher DR isn't that great either. I have a crappy 8:28 qualifying time and get matched against the top 10. With 8:10 on pole I'm struggling to reach the last corner before the timer tuns out, starting 12th to 14th. The Corvette is fun to drive anyway. Next race might be easier as I got knocked around off track and ended up with 18 sec penalties total, down to 85 SR. B/B or A/S, they still can't brake in time for someone that brakes in time not to hit the car in front of them....
 
The races I had this morning in B/S and A/S were mostly very clean and fair and in the rare case that I was bumped it was a) not that bad because it was just a little tap and b) the drivers said sorry after the race. In B/B they shunt you off and then move on to the next victim.
 
Did the race two times today, won them both :embarrassed::gtpflag:

Such a thrill driving against god lads that know the track well. One of the races i started as second, me and pole starter where never more than 2 second between going full speed from start to finish, he could not outrun me and i could not get momentum enough for an overtake. When we came to the long stretch at the end i got into he's slipstream and he politely let me pass and finish first!
Don't know how it was racing mid pack, but up in front it was real fun!!! :D

As an B\S driver i had an qualification time on 8.23 something
 
I race Nurb for these kinds of results

Relatable :lol:
Try another car? I was first using the Vette but it's too consuming so I switched to the 911. I averaged 65% consumption

Nurb can be clean for only so long (short) :(
