Yeah, the tuning bit is going to turn me off when I get to that point, I don't have the patience for that either.
But working on SR and now racing against other "A" rating drivers, this is a lot more fun. I'm not winning anything, but there is a refreshing lack of the shenanigans of the lower SR rating races. Having said that, I did just have to take a poor line to cut inside of someone on the last corner of the last lap in Kyoto Driving Park daily race. My defense is that if I'd been in a real race, I would have done the same thing. I actually bumped the other car a bit, but the game agreed that it was a legit move on the last corner of the last lap, and I wasn't penalized. Managed to outrun the other car to the line to take that coveted sixth place
