Car Development

Yes but you are all racing with the same level of competitor otherwise it would be very unfair.

But that is realistic. New teams are new teams and must not win from the start when entering a league with experienced teams.
Don't you think?

after one season you'd be up there in the top 7-8 teams in the league nae problem you just have to get the balance right between performance and the right kind stats on your driver. i have noticed by looking at the spiderwebs of most teams drivers that 50% teams need a different type of driver to a 100% teams

The fact that you don't have to win to have a great race makes this game so good. If you know you are in the midfield and not in the top you can get yourself on the podium sometimes which is a great achievement.

You just have to pick 5 or 6 teams you want to beat during a race and set that as your goal. 

Your car can be competitive in your second season if you focus energy on developing it from day 1.

Most of my parts are over 90% in my second season. I could make them 100% but I'm concentrating on next season again. I'm aiming to get next year's car around 60-70% at the start of the season.
