Race A last week, the time trial and this weeks race C all at Daytona? Why are they choosing the same track over and over :(

A fucking wonderful chicane penalty system.
Unnecessary changes.

Agree 100% but everyone is entitled of course to have their own experience :-) but I think that more people might enjoy racing this track when they believe it is about preventing big mistakes. 

In the future I would love to see this track again but then with dynamic weather and 20 laps or so, that would be nice. I know, under current game meta they are not going to do that, but then strategy and planning are much more a thing. 

happy racing!

I think many are missing out, this is a very fun race, with the track limits to look after and the 10 laps, you have to stay focused. When Iooking at the previous C at Tokyo, I agree that strategy can often be minimal.  You may know this already, but…

You may know this already, but the 156 comes up in the legend shop regularly 🙂

Strat is always minimal imho. Just drive with as minimal mistakes as possible. This track is really technical and therefor really nice. The only thing is that the alfa romeo is not available for purchase.

    Because the drivers below are in a lower DR.     As far as i know, the DR increases when you finish the race above higher ranked drivers.   And the amount of DR points depends on your SR classification

Thanks, probably. All of us in the lobby were all  BS, so I don't know. Anyway, I can only keep pushing and will see.

The driver rating is crazy in this daily. Started 14th, no contact, no off-track penalty, 8 overtaking, one x overtaken, finished with clean race bonus, but DR is dropped anyway......3 times almost similar scene in a row. Extrem confusing.

Indeed, such a shame the no strategy races. we need races of 30min plus!

Absolutely but knowing PD they would say" you have manufacturs races for them" Instead of making a daily D,the only hope is lmu being successful on console and maybe they'll do something for gt8

Hey Jeremy (great name btw 😉), I've just spotted this. 

Why not just using Circuit Experience to get quicker on the tracks of your favourite daily (/actually weekly) race(s)? 

That's my typical way to become faster, and it works with a wheel as well as with a controller.  💁🏻‍♂️

Greetings from Cologne, Germany

Hello! Brand new here and fairly new to these races. I'm a casual controller player but of course I try to get faster. Maybe a new trick for others like me to learn the shifts/throttle/brake from replays for quali. 1) Put fast person replay in loop m…

I cannot really say that this is permanent. However, if it continues next week or if we know about it in advance, we will keep posting. What I can say for certain is that we will share updates whenever we have confirmed information.

So is this a new permanent feature? If so this is really nice as I haven't seen a place before where I can know next weeks races!

Good question. This is because these are the next three events we could find in the database. They are three events with a similar structure, and that structure is typically used for daily races. These are the only events that match this pattern, so it is logical to assume they are the daily races for next week.

In other weeks, it was different because there were nine events, and we did not know their order.

Raiidiot_0196Replying to Raiidiot_0196·
I know this isn't related to this specific race, but I was wondering how future daily races are on this website and if these are accurate. I remember the predicted races for week 1, and they are this weeks daily races - so the races were correctly pr…
