Without further delay, my track notes for Tokyo...
Track Name: Tokyo R246 Street Circuit
Location: Tokyo Metropolis, Japan
Track Length: 3.18 miles (5.12 kilometers)
Race Length: 59 laps for 301.94 kilometers/187.62 miles
Estimated Best Lap: 1:37.451 (lower fuel, tires at 7)
Estimated Average Lap: 1:39.8
Pit Window: 25-30 laps (2 pit stop race)
Safest Passing Areas: Turns 1, 3, 6, 9, as well as pit straight, and between 7 and 9
My Personal Experiences: Tokyo, home of boundless speed and frustration, it is both simple and really complex. The bumpy track is tolerable with downforce, which is certainly needed around half of the circuit. High torque cars are odds on favorites just by the sheer speeds attainable, but the better turning cars will also be up front, leaving cars like Supra, NSX, SC430, and McLaren in a relative tough choice; downforce or transmission? It's a question with many answers and one that will be easy to spot even after lap 1. Qualifying means nothing until you get passed the first four turns. Then it'll heat up between the Armco and the concrete. Don't let your eyes deceive you--this track is full of wide entry, narrow exit corners that just scream for crashes. This is a smart racer's dream, a brave racer's challenge and a nightmare for everyone else. Welcome to Tokyo, home of the Honda and house of mayhem.

Sure, but you're 11th on the Randomized list out of 12, so someone could kick you out.

It's like a lottery, the lower your number the "less important" your choice is. I'm with your feels. I have 9.
