If what rattlesnack says is correct and your ranking goes down if you do nothing then that's one more of my 'beat the system' theories out the window. I hoped to get to a decent ranking then just sit it out for the rest of the week as I could lose a chunk of my points with just one more race. Another of my theories which didn't pan out was to quit before the race before it started if the majority of opponents had a lower rating than me - but you get a shed load of points deducted for doing that. A theory which does seem to work most of the time if your running the loan car with no upgrades is to be very selective on which tracks you race - on average I lose points racing on fast tracks like Daytona and win points on slower complex tracks like New York. I'm currently sitting at 638 (5 gold) and I don't think I can get much higher with the loan car - odds are if I continue to race I'll lose points - my points have not dropped since my last race 12 hours ago - fingers crossed it stays that way.
