Ran my first Sport Mode race and…

So I’ve heard how chaotic it gets but I didn’t think it was that bad 😂 honestly though, I didn’t mind it. The chaos made it that much more fun and exciting. The whole waiting before the race and people hopping off when they aren’t doing so good was really annoying. Now, I have a few questions and I hope someone can help me

1st
Aren’t GoP races supposed to be fair/equal? I know there’s META cars but how come when someone else has the same car as I do they seem to be faster? I understand even though we are in the same rank there’s people out there way more skilled but wouldn’t that matter only on the turns? They were literally taking off on me in the straights

2nd
Towards the end of the video you can see the NSX flashing me, it’s obvious he’s faster but I’m just trying to stay in my lane, I’m not defending/fighting, do I need to move out of the way for him?

3rd
Obviously I can’t afford to buy every META car out there so anybody has any suggestions on competitive GR1, 2, 3 and 4 cars?

Lastly, rate my driving. Any input, tips are highly appreciated. Thanks in advance

Don’t sleep on the Red Bull X2014 Junior

Amazing car! Great handling and gas saver. Perfect for the WTC 700 and below. Don’t let the 294HP fool you

Monitor Upgrade

I need some help deciding on which monitor to go with for my rig I currently have the LG 34WP60C-B 34" 21:9 Curved UltraWide QHD (3440 x 1440) HDR 10 160Hz 1ms and it’s good enough but I want OLED. I have 3 options in mind. At first I had chose the Samsung G8 (1) because I have the G7 on my desk and I love it but then I came across the LG UltraGear 34GS95QE (2) and it seems like a great upgrade for cheaper. When I asked google it threw in the mix the Alienware AW3425DW (3) which seems great too. Anybody with any of those that can give me some actual feedback?

Last but not least, I play on PS5 so google recommended me the Samsung 32” to have that 4k Res but I really want that wide FOV. Any opinions on that? Thanks in advance

I guess I’m a Pro now 😌

Jk! Got all bronze trophies but 2 weeks ago I couldn’t even clear the first test. This was definitely fun

Thank me later!

I started sim racing exactly a month ago, and playing almost every single day I felt like I was improving so much but this video just gave me a reality check lol
If you’re new like me, go watch it! Great video.

Any other useful advices?
