Give us races worth racing in these expensive cars. There will be 30% off upgrades sale on Cadillac in the last week of the update that is intersting, but doesn't change the quality of the series. I have made a number of posts ahead of the update to set expectations for the IMSA series (both GTD and DPi).

If you read them, you will see that Matt acknowledged that the series were not consistent with the cars. I asked if they could add championship tiers to the series and he said he would consider it.

As I also said in those posts, I have found that when Matt says he will consider something, he truly thinks about it and if it is feasible, he will try to get it done or will have a reasonable explanation as to why he could not do it.

Let's give them time and see if they are able to fix these series in future updates. For whatever reason, I think the maximum number of tiers in a series is 22, and there are fewer tiers in these series, so there is some room for FM to work with, if the decision is made to make it happen. I hear you, and saw your posts. I responded to them in a positive way and and acknowledged them in my post.

I hope they fix these series. The quality of content vs. cost is about the worst in the entire game. But the problem is not confined to these two series. Series quality has been eroding for a long time. I've commented on this many times over the years.

ALL the motorsports series need to be addressed - they all need quality cups in championship tiers, and the lack of variety in track usage is already getting old. The group C move to motorsports was very poorly executed. We lost several great races then.

And the pattern of a crummy regular series followed by a decent exclusive also needs fixing. Before exclusives we would get decent races in regular series. Not any more. The exclusives being rolled out now should be regular series content and exclusives should look more like endurance legends, the existing championship tiers the the two great GTE series, and two original R3 Spec series.
