Yes, the gap from Group B to Group A is huge, mostly because there is such a huge range of times at the Porsche track. But the tools that folks are using, the "cheaters," are available to you as well. Yes, I do ghost race. I usually try to lay down a lap on Sunday night on my own. Then as the week progresses, (and my drive replenishes) I start ghost racing cars that are a one to two tenths quicker. As I am able to beat them I just move up to the next guy (or gal)  that is a tenth or two quicker than the one I just beat, and so on.

Something else I do, is go back to a career series the car is in and try to find the same track. Sometimes they dont exist, but you can run other tracks to get a feel for a car you havent driven in a while. Plus, I can run there without the need of drive.

In either case, the career series or the TT, if I run off track, I turn around and run backwards and try that corner again. Sometimes dozens of times trying to find the right braking points and max speed for the grip needed. Practice makes perfect!

By doing this, as long as I own the top 4 cars in the WTT I can usually manage Group C more often than not. And by no means do I consider myself a great driver. Average at best based on what see posted here and looking TT times in all the career series.

As far as why dont I borrow upgrades. Well, I probably would if it was just a deal where say it was, "achieve this time and get rewarded" type deal. But that is not the case. For everyone person who makes it into a group, another gets knocked out.

So you are not really "stealing" from FM, you are actually stealing from fellow competitors. Some of which could be here who have helped me greatly. So I am not going to steal GC out of their pockets, just so I can line mine.

Plus, I am having a great deal of fun so I am ok with it.
