Did my first Formula C practice, qualify, and race and got first place!

The team i'm with is in 3rd though. Teammate AI driver didn't do so hot (which is fine like, small steps to getting Team Gold and all)

I'm surprised I picked up the pacing quite quickly though I'm still having trouble starting when there's cars all around me (ANXIETY :'] ), but I'm gonna get the hang of the AI settings I placed in as well as might change them to better suit how I want to play this game (mostly chill but do wanna win so it's on a fairly easy difficulty setting).

The thing I'm also adjusting is like...the screen I'm using now isn't the screen I used to play this game on and it's smaller width wise so everything feels SO DAMNED CLOSE when it also really ain't.

As far as the tuning mechanics go, I'm just gonna leave the tyres up to the pc to figure out mostly (like...Unless there's a VERY specific way to have the tyres pressure and...agh I forgot the second important setting), but in general It's gonna have to be a Per Car/Per Track/Per Weather basis.

I'm gonna hate wet/rainy weather so goddamn much >.<

#irrelevant babble #I also gotta stop pulling on the steering column #during practice it basically popped off the desk on a turn and...yeah...#the car was fine and I slid off into the grass but damnit #I'm definitely outta shape for games like this cos I still feel muscle tension where it shouldn't be as well as tightness in areas #But it's cos of my nervousness to drive as clean and safe as possible while also adjusting to my aggressive habits #Gonna tone down the aggression on starts in the actual race tho cos umm....#still haven't found The Trick to getting a good acceleration start from neutral to 1st gear #so yeah I'm learning and relearning. Good stuff :3
