I myself had so many issues yesterday. I really just did not understand. I knew going in that I was more than likely going to me in last place for each race and was totally cool with that as I wanted to be able at least somewhat competitive and learn. Well it just did not happen. I tried so hard to mimic the anticipated conditions during all race modes and it was going pretty well in my practice leading up the race. Most of the time running a 1:45 (fairly clean) but was able to get down to 1:44 and be able to competitively play with AI. Was feeling really go about things going in. I think even in practice I had some issues but I did somewhat how I expected. I think I may have even put down a clean 1:43 which I was stoked about, for me. I know you pros are much better but like I said before I completely new to this. I had no clue about racing and tuning a car before getting into PC2 but I tried to bone up on as much info as I could and apply it. I stayed with me tuning via tips and post and such as a way to learn the ropes and applying that to yesterday's race rather than grabbing some shared tunes. Still there is some stuff. In practice (at home) I was running clean laps and good lines and somewhat fluid. Yesterday not so much. I heard Old Bear (can't find his tag) you did not need to go off the track to move over but thanks, in the 2nd chicane. Well you are welcome (i really mean that) but when I applied the brakes the car locked up and slid me off to the side in the grass, it was not intentional Had so many braking issues that did not present itself in practice. Anyway in T3 the car just out of nowhere it was right turn clyde into the <insert your favorite> wall. Just retired to the pits and called it day. I can't find a choking emoticon, probably protical incorrect this days, so this well have to do to describe my day.
The more you race with us the faster and more consistant you will get. It may take some time and lots of patience but you will get there if you keep doing it.
