That's pretty lame. I've actually sent messages to chicane cutters calling them hacks and sore losers. Seems to piss them off according their responses. I tell them, too bad, cause that's what you are, a loser. Same as the brake checkers and rammers. Losers.

The historic race has boost set to on - this is why the slower cars catch you up. It's also the race where the final chicane cutters are more prevalent too. I was leading in a race last night where the guy who was in 5th place cut the last 2 chicanes and won!

Thanks for explaining why people catch up to me on that long straight. That boost feature is very annoying, especially since a lot of the slower racers are douches who will plow you into a wall! And for the final chicanes, I've just given in and joined 'em. No fun for me to lose to cheaters, and since the majority cuts it, it just evens it out. Still very annoying though.
 
Had a fun in a 2+ Hour session last night with 2 other racers. We were all at about the same level and I left the room with 7 million. lol
 
I was just in a room with you not_lefty but you never moved off the start position and got the same exact times I did three times and I was the winner. Makes no sense.
 
I didn't see you & I was just racing. There was only 2 other cars. The system is borked, that is all you can say for it. I was in a race early this evening & they all started the tire smoking, warp drive stuff. I got hammered from cars I couldn't even see...
I didn't receive the winnings, that's a drag. As I only won once out of my 3 races. What car was I running? I had the Toyota most of the time.
 
We never started in proper positions, we always started in 3rd, 4th, & 10th? Well that explains why it didn't just reset looking for players. It let me run the other night unopposed, there were probably cars I supposed to be racing on another server. Oh well, I least the weren't any corner cutters...

Yes I have but I notice I'm the only one from the US in a full room. Does that matter? I'm not sure, just an observation. I'm also up into the early hours here in Ohio when the good cleaner races happen.

I've also spent an hour trying to even enter a room. :crazy:

I'm also the guy that tries to be super clean and stops at the finish line to let other people by because I'm pegged at 50 million and have 500 cars that I don't even care about. Maybe the Kaz Magic senses that and pairs me up with other clean drivers. :D

If you keep trying you'll find the right room eventually. I've even found rooms where people on my friend list are there.

That would be too cool!! 👍👍 To stumble into a room with at least a couple of my buddies would be most excellent :cheers:,, but truth is most refuse to join the QM's ~ mostly because they really don't need the credits, they HATE being beat up and knocked off track and they,, like you guys detest the corner cutting :irked:..

I'm a little different,, I really do like running the QM's, always find a way to dispose of credits and thoroughly enjoy it IF and when I get a near the front start, get a jump on the field and hold the lead wire to wire,, OR,, when I get my typical start spot - - near the back or absolute LAST - - it's fun to drive around and through those doing their shenanigans, work my way to the front and finish on the podium. :lol: It's fun to see how many of the DIRTY, CHEATS and unskilled participants QUIT and leave. But that's just me and I'll finish by saying I am not very good nor am I very fast,,, :dopey: just driving a good line, knowing how to take the line that will allow me around or through the dirty guys :sly: is a hoot and usually helps get a decent finish :).
 
Well this blows, I have been racing for about an hour and I have just found out that I haven't been getting any money from the past few races. Polyphony really needs to step up there servers.:banghead:
 
Be warned guys, I did a session last night, had acrued around 10 mil in credits, and then the game crashed mid race and I had to reset.

Turns out none of the credits have saved!

I'd recommend ducking out every few races and saving so this doesn't happen to you.

Trouble is you then have to try and get back into another server...


On the plus note I was really enjoying the racing, I even politely challenged a couple of cheats via message: asking them if they thought they could win if they didn't cheat.

They stopped cheating! And still beat me on most occasions...
 
There are some nights when you cannot lose and other nights where you cannot seem to win. Tonight was win less. I didn't run one race in ten tries where I didn't make a big mistake all by my self.
 
Had a chance to run this race a bit today. The quality of the races varied (Sometimes it's remarkably clean, other times some wally's punting people off the track in a GT-R LM Nismo), but there was a surprising amount of variation between the car choices (No one car chosen in particular over another) and most were equally matched. The last few races I ran were as clean as could be after a couple of Kamikaze-style moves at the start, but I couldn't finish higher than 4th in the GT-R LM Nismo...

Also, in 1 Hour I added around 2+ Million Credits to my in-game account at only 110% login bonus, so this is a SERIOUS money-maker of a race IMO.
 
Does anyone know what this problem is that I'm having. I will finish first, but then it will say that I got second place, and my time will -x.xxx instead +x.xxx when it shows up on the leaderboard behind second.
 
My biggest complaint now is the guys that enter but never move from the start. Mess me up and somehow still place high. More losers to add to my list.
 
Make my biggest complaint that there's a bunch of 🤬 drivers. I hope they're kids and not adults. If they're adults, then they're double 🤬🤬 drivers. Seriously pathetic losers. Ram me into a wall on a straight cause I'm faster and you suck? Is that the mentality of these people?

Nevermind the brake checkers and ramming people for a 16! second penalty.
 
That's why I don't like QM. PD should include minus 10% of their credits rather than only few seconds penalty with any ram or short cut. :lol:
 
I was racing the other night & it was a fairly clean race, at the end the 2 chuckleheads behind me cut the final corners, & I ended up in third. I was not real pleased to say the least. I refuse to play that way. I'm slow enough that no one should need to cheat to beat me. Plus I drive the lowest powered car. I collected my credits & continued on. I think it was still over 500K for third.
 
I've had some good races, but killed the field most of the time. The corner cutting hasn't been a huge deal, but if I start mid pack, the brake checking has been bad. I think it is mostly guys just too cautious though.

If at the start when you have the start list and there are gaps then the system is usually bonkered. I had a guy blast me for forcing him off track. Called me some choice names. I didn't even have him on my list and he sure wasn't on the track with me. System SNAFU.
 
I win about 75% of the time in the prototype race and Im in a Peugot. The key parts of the race for me are the start, the last right hand turn on the straights, the porsche curves and the chicane. I can usually run the final chicanes about 1-2 seconds faster than the other drivers which helps if I am behind. I always nail the starts as the Peugot has an awesome launch off the line.

I beg to differ haha! I haven't had a night where I couldn't win yet. Been doing them for a bout 2-4 hours a day for the last week
 
Anyone looking for someone to race against?

I enjoy having a team mate on track so that we can take first and second, and maintain for the race.

Im a realistic driver in that I respect other people on track.

I had an AWESOME duel with a friend. We changed leads about 4 or 5 times and they were all results of actual racing maneuvers like taking a wide line to undercut them on exit etc!
 
Wow... I'm glad I found this thread because it helps explain quite a bit! No wonder I've been getting messages from someone I never see on track! His name stands out too cause it's a famous former racecar personality. So when there are gaps between all these drivers I DO see, those are players I don't see? Yipes!

Gotta agree with the majority here... those track cutters are way too often getting away with murder. I was having a great race with someone I've never met... less than half a second difference for about the last 5 sectors of the race, and somebody behind us cuts the last corners and wins... HATE THAT!!! He killed what was such a good race!

I mentioned it in another thread... you know it's bad when someone sends me a message thanking me for racing clean!

Cheers
