has anyone been able to beat the seasonal bonus race 2, particuarly the last track where you have to use a stock car on nurburgring? I bought a stock car but fuck it's almost impossible to catch up to jeff gordon when you start off in position 12.

Now they completely removed all restrictions thus its 100x easier, change the oil after a few laps round an oval and you get close to 900hp or about 60hp above everyone else. Buy racing soft rubber. Tune your car for a FR setup with bias towards oversteer and you will be golden.
That should give you a big enough edge over the others. If all else fails turn on electronic aids.

You have to know the track well to drive this car on the edge. You can catch up huge on the straighter sections if you can keep the gas pedal pinned and the car on the road. If you're having issues try increasing traction control and ABS first, as a last resort turn on skid recovery force.
I had one spin on my second lap and still managed to catch 1st place on the last turn.

You can just buy a stock car and go at it, no one says you must mod the car to 1million hp and smoke everyone within the first lap. It's actually a good move IMO, I was stuck for 3hrs+ for that stupid mini race and was really frustrated (i.e. Not having fun). It's kind of the same reason why wow became so casual friendly, cause 95% of the paying customers are casual gamers who do not have 8-10hrs to spare daily for progression/events/races.

Draft
You have to pass the first car clean on the outside and stick as close to Johnson as possible to stay in the draft. You should be able to read the decal on his car while taking the first corner, otherwise you're too far behind - quit and restart. I almost had 1st yet ran into Johnson trying to pass in the last corner.

I done seen it all now as far as online glitching and how bad it is in GT.
I just finished 5 races where I won first place in all of them, OR SO I THOUGHT.... the whole time I kept wondering why there were 15 players in this room but only 5 were racing each time, found it weird that there is just 10 guys in one room sitting there watching 5 guys race....
so it turns out I've only been seeing 5 people racing when in reality all 15 were on track and racing each of those races, I didn't see any of these cars and it kept showing the race as a normal 5 guy race and me getting 1st place each time. I happened to see that finish 20 second countdown start appearing when I'm close to the finish line each race so I was thinking, hey wtf why is the countdown starting I'm first and I haven't crossed the finish line yet...
turns out I been getting 2nd all along, and they've all been seeing me but I only been seeing 5 guys
I don't think a patch can even fix this, Gran Turismo is new to online world, so no wonder it sucks balls
