These new 2019 NASCARs are unusually easy to drive. While 2016 and 2018 (I have no experience with 2017 models in RR3) tend to skid like crazy on ovals if you go flat out and take horrible line(s) to enter and exit turns, these 2019 ones are grippy af whatever you do. Is it because of that significantly higher rake? 🤔 Even other tracks, Suzuka, Hockenheim etc., they feel like a solid GT3 car - really grippy. I like that a lot, honestly.

That said, I have mad fun in '19 SMC, more than I've ever had in any prior LTS. Primarily because I'm running everything unserviced so there's plenty of very close racing and I'm intentionally getting right between those cars in front of me, without touching anyone. Bots are also not trying to pit/clip/hit me as long as I keep my line so it's very enjoyable to race that close with other cars; if I turn just sliiightly more to any side I'm crashing in some of those bots. It's excellent 🤠
