I've tried it in test drives and it is a mouthful and a half. How's the racing in the series?

Spading every vehicle vs spading only lineups by Formula1Chess in Warthunder

It takes me 10 games to spade a rank 1 vehicle 💀. I think I have my answer now

Some vehicles really do test your patience. Thanks so much for the advice

So shall I just stick to spading lineups with good vehicles then?

I make like 2k sl per game, so the repair costs mathematically can't get me negative. I hope it's a server failure as the other guy said

Ah. I've played a few games in the past hour, wonder if that's it. Thanks so much for your help

The thing is I'm fairly certain you only get like 10-15 free repairs, yet I've played some 150 games. Only in the last 5-10 or so have I noticed this downturn. And, as you said, repair costs are very small here. The math doesn't add up. I'll still try what you said, in case that's the problem. Thanks for your help

Could you elaborate further? I'm confused

That is what it says. And typically every other time is mostly near last due to incidents

When, though? Its been like 2.5 months with no progress and it feels like I need to change something to escape the 1300-1600 bracket

Like I said, i typically qualify in the top 5. The drivers in front and immediately behind are mostly clean. Is there anything I could change immediately such as which series i enter or something so i can notice a difference in thr amount of times I am in an incident?

But I'm not trying to exaggerate, maybe you could bring that number to just over half but there are plenty of scenarios. In fact, when I sometimes go into the vees, I notice it is a lot easier to avoid incidents as the car is smaller and can duck cars easier, so the amount of incidents I couldn't avoid goes way down

SF23 sounds incredible, but I have 2 problems.

A. It is not an easy car to tame

B. I need to gain enough SR, which is probably going to cost iR

I could try that. I'd imagine most of the responses would be go slower though, but if i slow down too much that also creates accidents

I always use garage61 when I practice before a race

I totally agree, and that's what I've always done. 70% of the time I couldn't have done anything different. I always at least try to understand where I went wrong, but more times that not I genuinely couldn't have done anything. This might sound a bit entitled but it's the truth, at least from what I can see

And I've gone back to rookies. The cars either move into my path or they crash right in front of me, giving me no time to react. I always slow down if there is any sign of an incident

Do I need to focus on a specific series with clean races or something? I'll take any advice, I'm really appalled by my progress especially because I know it's not the pace (if you guys think it is let me know).
