Ive been playing RR3 for about two years and i do fairly well, level 209, top 10-20% in time trials. Im stuck on the endurance and hunter rounds of the exclusive series for the Mazda furai. The taget distances are rediculess and unattainable. I have no assits enabled and use the default controls of auto accelerate manual brake. My best is second place. I've tried over twenty times. Can someone 'PLEASE'give me some advice on how I can inprove my perfomance.
