Nice one! It's that last stretch at the back of the circuit that's strawberry floating the lap up, as I can't find the dry line and have to pretty much coast the last bit of it costing bags of time. I'm only 1.5 or so off so if I can get that sorted I'll have it.

Cheers. It wasn't a perfect lap if I'm being honest, but I have managed to do it in 1:25.949.

I wonder if you could use my ghost so you could follow it?

I should watch the demo lap thinking about it, I've not used that feature yet. It really doesn't help that you have to drive for 2 minutes to get to that bit only to them immediately strawberry float up.

This is the only thing annoying me about game, had the odd 10k but never ever anything above or car, or anything!

I am still continuing to win the lowest amount of money, I have never gotten more than 10k and if there are multiple piles I always (apart from once where I had the second lowest amount) get the smallest pile of credits.

At this point I know it’s not random at all.

Finally :toot:



I think you can actually see the moment I realise I've made it through the last straight without binning it, hesitate, then out my foot down again. Cautious as hell after that in to the bus stop so there's time there but I'm not doing that again unless one of you strawberry floaters beats my time :x

Congrats.

I did my first endurance race last night (Trial Mountain in the BAC mono). Surprised how quickly the hour flew by, but I only managed 6th, thanks to a few penalties and being totally unprepared for the drop in grip moving to Mediums for the final stint. Didn’t seem to have the pace to win it ever, though. I was losing about 2 seconds a lap on the lead car even on my better laps. Looking forward to trying again, but I’ll need to do a serious overhaul to the setup to get competitive.

The real endurance is on your index fingers, though. The DualSense adaptive triggers really give you a workout.

BAC MONO :datass:

I've not unlocked the endurance stuff yet, but I like the sound of having to employ a bit of strategy.

Does anybody know what's three legendary cars for the trophy?

It seems nobody knows what they are yet. :o :lol:

One more trophy (three legendary cars) then I will get the platinum trophy. :datass:

It'll be a while until I get these three cars.

Managed to get another couple of hours on this today, my feelings on it really haven’t changed for it either. I doubt I’ll do the endurance races, these days the sound of doing an hour plus race on a pad doesn’t tempt me, in hindsight I could have got a wheel that did Xbox/PS/PC but I think that upped the price of a fair few wheels when I got my current one.

Edit, what a dire few races where you have to buy a pick up truck :dread:

So I just learnt the hard way that endurance challenges don’t repeat pay out!

Hour wasted!

Has the most recent update changed time trial? Sure last time I couldn’t TT at the Nordschliefe but it was an option just now? Obviously jumped on for a lap! Reckon I might buy a Super Formula car for TT reasons :datass:
