Trial took two attempts. I’m usually able to handle the AI with ease on Bahía de Plano, but I found the HSV to be miserable to drive. Somehow it manages to both significantly oversteer on throttle and massively understeer when trying to roll through a corner, which is an awful combination. The first attempt had a teammate who decided to park it for half the race all three times, thanks a lot for that. I pulled off some serious blocking from first on Emerald Circuit, but my next teammate was so far behind it didn’t even matter. On the second attempt I started last at Bahía de Plano and got stuck behind a massive pile-up at the first corner with multiple sideways cars blocking the whole track, lovely. Fortunately I had a competent teammate or two that time and we won the remaining races easily.
