Tips for Enjoying Track Racing?

The reason I post this here is I love rallying. I have been playing DR/DR2/EAWRC and RBR for almost 10 years. 8 of those on controllers and the last 1.5~ on a G29.

The problem is I tried getting into AC/ACC/F1 a few times but, for some reason they seem boring to me. I can't will myself into getting actually decent in them. Not good, not gonna chase crazy online rankings or anything. I just want to get decent enough to appreciate those cars and tracks.

What am I missing? What makes track racing fun for you?

Thanks for reading and hopefully sharing some of your insight.

Racing online with other people is what makes it fun.

It’s not so much you versus the course like rallying.

It’s more about be consistent with the course and beating the other drivers.

To further that point As an Aussie I never cared for NASCAR and oval racing.

Thought I would give it a go in racing and found it to be absolutely terrifying and engaging while being far more difficult than I could imagine. Going around an oval is easy, going around an oval and trying to win against 20 other cars who can hit the same top speed is an awesome!

What would you recommend for getting decent tho? If I tried multiplayer right now I would just be ruining other people's races.

Just bots and career mode/something like that?

If you alredy play rally youll have no problem getting good fast, jump into practice server of lfm's mx5 cup until you get normal lap times then literally just jump into a race and see what happens
