Brands Hatch Career race in the rain

Just done this in B class. Not bad really. One restart due to the Drivatar in the 3 series punting me off but otherwise no drama.

This track in the wet has made me hate everything in the world. I’m doing it now in an R class vehicle and don’t think it’s possible to do without assists, rewinds, smashing 80 controllers, and killing a goat.

I have to disagree here. Brands hatch in the rain requires a little patience and lots of skill, that’s all folks!

And a goat death apparently

Brands Hatch in the rain is nothing! Try the Nordschleife!

This is by far my least favorite track rain or no rain. I can’t stand it.

Look up the BTCC rounds 3 and 4 from Brands Hatch in 1995 on Youtube or something. That shows how bad the track is in the rain.

ooPAYNEoo:

Did anyone do this race yet? I finished the A class race. I am on very hard drivatar level, which I recently bumped up to make the game easier ironically.

That was one of the most difficult, frustrating race I’ve ever done.
The Drivatars are so unpredictable, I now understand what everyone is saying, no need to repeat all of it here. You all are absolutely right about the Drivatars… and the exgagerrated slipperiness overall.

I had to restart so many times, until I was screaming out loud at the AI, “MOVE” “What are you doing”, ARGH are you SERIOUS"
After awhile, I have to say that it wasn’t fun. I do not think I like the rain. And we cannot skip these races, I believe.

Anyways, if you find yourself in this predicament, take your time. Just drive slowly and easy. Brake early, if you have to scrap AI in the mud, do it. If you’re in 5th, 6th place by the last lap, keep going. Someone will mess up and you should get 3rd. But mainly, DO NOT force this race. Do not throw your controllers, and keep a few napkins around for your palms and forehead. Lastly, Do not use the SLK. LOL

I was so upset with this race I wanted to impale myself with the Xbox remote

I know completely how you all feel. Despite having the RS2 Avant, I restarted this race probably 7-10 times. Probably one of the most frustrating races I’ve ever done. Glad to have it behind me - until I have to race it again lol.

Brands Hatch in the rain is a comedy track just add the Benny Hill music.
