It looks like Fanatec Global Challenge (Cadillac CTS-VR) @ Daytona, Sim Lab PCC (Ford Mustang FR500S and maybe Mazda MX-5 and the Pontiac Solstice) @ Lime Rock and Spec Racer Ford @ Nurburgring GP are the road racing choices for me this week.
Lime Rock is base content so I assume that we'll get KJ and Pat in the Mustangs again.
I love Daytona so I might take a chance with FGC. I'm unsure whether this is the paid or base content version of Daytona.
Weekend Warriors SRF will be racing on Sunday so I'll skip the public race aggravation and just try to get some practice in during the week.

Only two races for me this week.
I don't have the pace to compete with the fast guys Weekend Warriors SRF group and was especially off at Nurburgring GP (3+ seconds on a 2:11 lap) but it looks like I finished 4th of 8 drivers in the under <3000 iRating "S2" class so less depressing than the lonely race that I had after a front lockup put me wide, allowing two or three cars to pass me and I lost touch.
Sim Lab PCC with the Mustang Sunday evening was shaping up to better with me about 0.5 sec off the fast guy, qualifying 3rd with a 9 driver (full?) field of Mustangs and P2 after T1 on Lap 1 but sadly I looped it exiting T2 and got collected by at least one car for a 4X plus another 1X for rolling of onto the grass to be towed with an undriveable car. I was gifted a new car (Fast Repair) but was at least one lap down. I half-spun exiting the last corner to be collected by a lapper in another Mustang despite my spin being slow developing and him being quite a ways back. Tragically bad result, 10X and P8 cost me a big chunk of SR and iRating. I almost entered the next race but reminded myself that Lime Rock isn't my favorite and even running up front with no pressure, lapped cars can be a problem; more risk than I need to take for a track that I don't enjoy very much. Maybe I'll double down at Watkins Glen next week.
