Really should fix that, tho...😁
 
Got some work done today...started with the GT500 TT at Spa. Ran several laps in the Supra and realized I have no clue how to drive that car. Turning/Braking I'm good, it's keeping the thing 'on boil' that I struggle with. I have two modes with the damn thing, bogged or bouncin' off the limiter. Tried the NSX 'cuz all the cool kids were. 65 miles and a bunch of smiles later I was into gold territory, for now (2:20.2xx).

Then I ran some laps at Suzuka to see if I was up to a Daily B. Thought I was. I was not.🤣

First couple laps were on-point. Stickin' with the crew I started with and breaking away from the rest of the pack (P1 - me in P6). Was able to pick off a couple spots when people in front bobbled a bit and landed P4. Then I decided to try some disco moves through the fields on L3. Back to tenth for the final two laps. Groovy. Gathered up two before the finish line for P8 at least.

Lesson learned, went to offline stuff. Ran the first of the weekly races to receive my NEVER disappointing 6* parts ticket. Cashed that and my other SUPER exciting 6* parts ticket from the daily marathon. Thankfully, was able to collect the camshafts and a driveshaft I needed. With those I can now complete my build of the worlds first camthatched roof. Needed one more vertical support and some fill around the chimney at the Cafe.😁

:cheers:
 
Today I was trying to enter a GT League and I went the whole weekend to tryout for it and getting the cars I needed to join. It was so hard! I can drive the car but I didn't make it. But I did join a club. So I'll be racing with them then!
 
-Did some qualifying for Daily Race A, featuring the Mazda Roadster (ND) NR-A @ Road Atlanta. I actually got a time that's in the top 1k, which I think is amazing since this car is running Comfort Softs and not any of the sports tires. I tried the race itself twice, and both times, I got a clean Q3/P2.

-I also slightly improved my time by a few tenths for the online time trial featuring classic JGTC GT500 cars at Spa-Francorchamps, but now I really don't see how I can shave off over half a second to reasonably get into gold range.

-Finally, I decided to fiddle around with the AFEELA to see what sort of options there were for it. Decided to really just get the other two sports tire compounds, ballast, power limiter, and then just leave it. Even took it to GT Auto and all you're really able to do of note is install aftermarket wheels and change the license plate, but I understand that it's a prototype of an EV so I get how customization options would be limited.

Ultimately, I got a three-star ticket that netted me 10k credits, but I really don't mind. Much more interested in the two clean top-five finishes I got today.
