League racing I'm pretty much done with at this point and have been done with for quite sometime. One reason is because of my weight disadvantage (being out of shape) being 250-260 IBs and trying to outrun guys that are say 170-180 IBS and just are leaving me in the dust on the backstretch at Autobahn (lighter weight = lower downforce and COG = faster lap times) while I have an anchor (extra weight) riding on my back. Secondly, the participation started dropping off around the 2nd league season (when I was still qualifying and competing at the track) and nobody was coming around to show up and race...so I just felt there was no point continuing to waste money on this any further (I don't know how the participation is now a days over at Autobahn but I hope at least Autobahn is doing fine with just the public racing financially) I believe the only racing I'm going to do going forward is racing box stock engine flat karts (gas not electric)...maybe get back into some 1/4 scale R/C Racing or try my hand at some street stock/LLM racing at my local short track (whenever that's going to be...I don't have any plans at the moment) and of course SIM racing (NR2003, ACC, etc.) that I've been doing off and on now

As stated in the intro, there is no Part 16 in my Dirt to Daytona Career Mode walkthrough due to an audio issue on my part...I disabled the audio because I was putting together some troubleshooting gifs for a technical article I was writing on my gaming blog. I forgot to re-enable the audio and when I went to save my progress in the career mode, it was too late when I noticed my screw from the race I recorded. As for an overview of the parts upgrades I use on my dirt car in the game, the only upgrade I intended on maxing out was the aero because it is vital over having the biggest engine or exhaust upgrades to being competitive since there is no way to adjust the ride heights in this game besides the spoiler settings which I almost always set to the lowest setting to give me the lowest downforce possible for straight-line speed advantage.

It depends on a few factors...Batteries starting to die (say after a 14-15 lap run) and starting to lose time (.500 or more a lap). The other factor is getting off sequence from everybody else (pitting sooner or sometimes later) to pickup time (unfortunately I didn't quite get my strategy right and lost more time just trying to get strapped into a new kart)

To me, this new track layout takes away some of the challenge as the old layout; but, there is more room to pass and there is more draft potential on that long backstretch.

Very nice lines there. Just left that place and seemed to be locked down in the high 31's and low 32's. Being somewhat unfamiliar with electric karts I was just using the steering as a brake to slow the kart down which induced plenty of wheel hop, looks to me like you're using some brake to hold the racing line on this track?
