World Rally Challenge Gr.B: Willow Springs International Raceway Big Willow
Car Choice: Toyota 86 Gr.B Rally Car
Items purchased in the tuning shop:
Racing Hard Tyres
My Brake Balance is set to 3 for this race, this is personal preference and not required.
Strategy: Start the race on racing hard tyres, change the fuel to level 4 and keep it there the entire race.
Pit at the end of lap 5 for new racing hard tyres only, DO NOT refuel.
NOTE: You can get to the end of this race without pitting if you’re good at managing your tyre wear. I chose to do a 1 stop strategy because that’s what most people would be more comfortable with.

World Touring Car 700: Dragon Trail Gardens Reverse
Car Choice: Lamborghini Huracan Gr.4
Items bought in the Tuning Shop:
High-RPM Turbocharger
Racing Hard Tyres
Heavy Wet Tyres
Intermediate Tyres
My Brake Balance is set to -2 for this race, this is personal preference and not required.
Strategy: Start the race on racing hard tyres, at the start of the race change the fuel mix to level 6 and keep it there the entire race. Pit on lap 6 and only add 4 laps of fuel and new Racing Hard Tyres. If you can manage your tyre wear you can also try a no pit stop strategy if it doesn’t rain.
This race has a chance of rain so keep an eye on the weather radar and change to wet tyres if necessary.
