Haha have at look at the current polesitter. He's using the obviously faster Rallycross circuit.
I wonder how many other idiots will be encouraged.
The new Devs face their sternest test. Wonder if they will pass.
@Ooooooooops I think WTT with the Agera RS last week was a bit unusual as maybe lots of faster guys won the RS late as they took advantage of the sales to upgrade during the event. Then they set good WTT times late in the week. This might be the reason that you got pushed down so close to C.
I don't think that will happen this week.
As for OMP numbers, it does seem a bit strange that there are only 200-400 participants at any one time. Maybe there is more than one OMP server.
The only way you could find out the total OMP participants is to lose a couple of races so your score is close to 0 and then check out your position on the OMP leaderboard at OMP end.
Big rush winning a couple of races at Lime Rock yesterday. I wonder if anyone has had a heart attack playing RR3? Was bleak as there were only about 200 playing so took long to get matches and sometimes only racing against 1-2 others.
When I looked at your Lightning Unleashed post, I thought your R$ earnings were very low for someone who has played for 11 years, but now I know why.
Best advice is stop restarting the game every year. If you had been playing on the same account since 2013, you would probably own all cars now, mostly FU.
WTT/OMP
Do WTT every week. You must be fast if you won the Nevera with 113111 so you should get into Group B every week if you have the top car at LTS upgrades (3333333).
WTT is my biggest earner but I have been playing the game concurrently from 2018 so I almost always have the top car FU (or I take advantage of the weekly WTT sale)
Remember the game is tough at the beginning but as you progress, you will have more cars so can take advantage of WTT. It took me 2 years before I started having WTT top cars FU and another year before I started getting into B.
Do OMP every week and get as far as you can.
DAILY REWARDS AND ADS
You must login every day to collect your daily rewards.
Try to watch at least 5-30 ads every day to earn 5-10 Gold daily. If you have the time you can get 20 Gold daily from ads (5G + 20R$ + 5G + 50R$ + 5 Gold + 100R$ + 5G = 190 ads daily)
DAILY M$ AND FAME FARMING
Win or buy a 2019 F1 car as soon as possible. FU it (Gold not required) so you can race in its Invitational Series. The fame earned in F1 Invitationals is nearly 3 times higher than any other M$ series and you finish the race much faster than a GT3 etc.
FAME DAYS FOR DAILY REWARDS (R$ AND FAME FARMING)
Race the best paying races for 25% to 100% Fame days. Always hire the agent if the fame for that race is over 7000-8000 fame. Hire the agent even if you have to pay 1 Gold.
Learn to do Endless Enduros. Buy and FU the Audi R8 LMS so you can access its Exclusive Series. Fame is always higher in Exclusive Series.
BONUS SERIES IN ROAD COLLECTION
Don't go over 75% of bonus series. Bonus series don't have to be completed 100%. Rather take advantage of upgrade sales to buy upgrades to later complete these bonus series. I've been playing for nearly 6 years and I only have Amateur at 100%.
Cars only need to be FU if they have a sale and are top cars in WTT.
STRATEGY PAGE
Have a look at the Strategy pages for Road Collection and Motorsports to see which cars need to be upgraded. Concentrate on completing Main Career series.
GOLD
Hoard gold like a miser. Don't spend it to buy cars if the car is not needed to progress.
EVENTS FOR NEW CARS
At least try to win cars in Special Events if others won it cheaply. Have a look at the Round Hub strategy page and the actual event page to see how others won it. At least have R$ reserves to upgrade to all 1's. Don't stress if you don't win the car, another FB or new LS will come around again.
1:20.259 in my FU Huayra, about 80% into B.
This is another combo that is going to drive me nuts like Suzuka and the Agera RS last week.
On a few good runs I've been 0.6s behind Lambo approaching Stowe and then lose another second after. I don't know if it's because the last section is more difficult or because I'm tip-toeing around Stowe and the last chicane.
@Ooooooooops I ran into you in OMP last night. I was leading and stuffed it up towards the end, got overtaken by you and 3rd, then you both went wide so I could overtake but then I skidded on last corner and you won, good race.
Thanks for the vid Lambo, fantastic lap even with a couple of skids and answering notifications.
I was low B 5 days ago but almost mid B yesterday without doing anything.
I still decided to try some more last night and improved by 0.04s for a 1:25.579.
At least I'm consistently slow.
Looking forward to the Huayra R tomorrow...
Thanks @RR3. Player 701140 for using your Drives on this, I thought the gap would be more than a second.
Maybe I should try with TC ON, though I would be embarrassed if I improved.
I turned TC off a long time ago but as you say with this car, it might benefit me.
Good time with the GT @Man Flu , pity you don't have the Agera.
I saw @QuickNick had a similar time yesterday in the GT (if he is Nicholas W)
Jeez Nico you improved by 1.3s after 5 minutes and I've just spent nearly 4 hours trying and the high point during that time was collecting my 150 Gold WTT/TTC rewards.
This WTT is going to drive me nuts this week. I've been 0.4s behind Alfred until the hairpin, 0.6s after then tossed it at Spoon curve. I'm blaming that mistake on having to squint at my splits because FM can't give me a consistent font during my runs..
Only improved by about 0.8s now.
1:25.619 in the FU Agera, about 15% into B which is probably not enough.
Appreciate the offer Lambo, only after you have set a safe pole in the Agera. Added pressure now that SB has retired.
Nice split Lambo, a good luck omen?
@GreenDevil97 unfortunately learning to use TC off with the Agera RS for this WTT is going to be very challenging. I'm tapping my brakes (Tilt-A) all over the place when I don't have the correct trajectory for a corner. If I brake too much for a corner and drop into a lower gear then it wants to skid on exit because too much power. This car is a handful here.
It would be interesting if Lambo or another group A racer did a lap for us here with TC on to compare their laps times.
Hey Nico I'm also struggling here after a couple of hours last night.
I also have all 3 cars FU.
Yep pity the Ford is not competitive. I remember that you might have got your first A with the Ford GT at COTA GP and I got my best WTT result (419th) there as well.
I tried the Lambo for a couple of runs while the Agera was servicing and managed to catch my initial Agera ghost at the hairpin but then lost time after.
With the Agera, I can keep within 1s of Alfreds ghost until the hairpin but losing a further 2.2s after.
1:26.442 with my FU Agera, about 60% into C
1:30.475 with the FU Lambo.
I got the first and second ads OK.
Luckily I only have last engine upgrade that needs ads.
Ouch see you in 2 days if you can't get ads.
I don't know if leaving your PUSH team and creating your own private team will solve this problem.
@Kedingus23 posted a comment on how to delete TSM friends data for Android but be careful if you fiddle with game files.

Congrats did you manage to keep both headlights intact?
The insanity here is that you didn't go offline when you started to get rid of the 600km second place TSM bot.
Or is that a team mate because I see you are a member of PUSH now but weren't in the team for this run.
Do TSM team mates not get removed when going offline?
That's one reason why I didn't join a team.
To maximize fame and R$ earnings when agents are hired and to bypass having to service your car every 5 minutes.
Yep I sometimes get the same problem as SlatBH where the ad stalls at 1s left but eventually resumes itself. But this only happens with dual ads, i.e. ads that have 2 ads in one.
Check if it's not a network issue, when ad stalls try toggle airplane mode off/on to see if ad resumes.
I still think RR3 has a bug knowing if it's connected or not.
Today at work, connected to WiFi, I wasn't getting any ads. OMP also said I wasn't connected but I could go into WTT and scroll through the leaderboard OK. Toggling airplane mode got me my ads back.
Improved to a 1:09.330 after an hour last night, 50% into B which should be safe.
Was wondering why I was struggling to get used to the car again now in the first 15 minutes and then saw that my SS was at 2. I had changed to SS2 for the Performante in the WTT.
SS2 to SS0 makes a huge difference for me with this car.
Congrats to all who made it into A and B. I reckon this TTC is the truest reflection of our pace as most will have the Z4 FU, similar to the F1 Academy car TTC we had a while back.
In this weeks WTT I'm competing against 1000's that don't have the top car or don't have the top car FU so my B is not really a B.
Pity TTC rewards are poor compared to WTT rewards. As TTC's are more exclusive than WTT, I think they should pay more.
I remember back in 2019 in the McLaren Shadow Project TTC, I got a 50 Gold reward for being in E with the R$ McLaren 600 LT. I don't remember what the rewards were for A.
EDIT just had a look at Jan R's video, group A rewards were 350 Gold.
Lets hope that the patch notes are correct and we don't get a nasty surprise like we did with the Acura NSX Type S.
All 3's will cost 485 Gold less the 100 Gold LS reward and should get up to 75% in its series which is 9 + 15 + 21 = 45 Gold in rewards. So 340 Gold nett.
Sometimes we moan about one car series but in these cases it's advantageous.
Yep @Nicomarx59 and @Michael Pedrosa , getting the Utopia at R$ upgrades and then upgrading during sales is always the cheaper option but the devs have a nasty habit of having cars we just won being WTT top cars in the same/next update.
So during Week 5 of the next update, the Utopia will have to be FU to be competitive in the WTT. FU is 1340 Gold, even with a 50% discount that's 670 Gold which is a lot to cough up at once.
See Lambos comment here..
Ferrari being overzealous maybe.
Rimac PR is shown in ME7's video
93.2 to 110.3
110 seems a bit excessive.
