Day After Day

Hello everybuddies!

So it's a brand new day, and brand new gaming adventures. I overslept a little (well maybe not so little), so my gaming today started fairly late. I decided to give a first shot to Real Racing 3.  As I wrote yesterday, I'm currenly going through Exclusive Series, in Mercedes-Benz 190E 2.5-16 Evolution II (yes, that's a mouthful) and BMW M3 GTS. I managed secure some nice wins in both cars - especially an epic comeback from the very last place to the lead in Indianapolis cup driving BMW M3 GTS. Other wins included Mount Panorama cup, speed record at Nurburgring, and speed snap at Red Bull Ring Morning - all while driving the Mercedes-Benz.At the time of writing this I decided to play some Need for Speed Shift, but at this very moment we had a blackout in the whole building! Now that's what I call a bad luck. Waiting for the power to come back and noticing I still had a decent battery life on my phone, I decided to go back to Real Racing 3 for a little while. I won after quite an entertaining race at Daytona as a part of Mercedes-Benz 190E Exclusive Series.

Electricity came back shortly, and I could start my Need for Speed Shift training. What I'm doing for my driving practice is I pick a car, fully upgrade it and then take it for 5 runs on every track available in the game. I note all my times in a notebook, so I can trace my progress, and I'm doing this for every car in the game. It's an intense training, but one that I hope will bring some results. As of now, I have finished all my races in fully upgraded Mazda RX-8 (yseterday I completed  Spa GP, Tokyo Circuit, Tokyo Club, Willow Springs GP, and Willow Springs Horse Thief Mile) and with well over one million in bank (the game give you credits and EXP even for quick races), I bought and upgraded Audi S3. My goal - aside from learning how to drive well - is compare all the cars. One of my future plans for Racing Spirit Youtube channel is reviewing cars as they appear in different games, as well as one specific game.

Wth that done, I decided to watch some fellow racing Youtubers' video, one particular being Viperconcept, who delivers a really funny text commentary - the thing that I tested myself for my channel. Then I visited gg.deals to see if there's some good price drops for the games (I can honestly recommend this site for every cost-concious gamers, it's simply awesome). There's actually a Fanatical game sale going right now with Project CARS going for 4.49 euros. To me, it's a steal. What else? I played some Half Life 2 wih my friend Karol, and then played some more Real Racing, winning a couple of challenges, and spectacularly failing at one of them. I'm actually saving up for a new wheel for my PC and Xbox One (which I am als nci planning to buy, because of Forza reasons :) ). Nothing to say about my current Tracer Zonda, but... well, it's crappy, and the pedals don't work. So a nice Thrustmaster could go a long way. Especially given what kind of YT channel I'm making.

So what's next for Racing Spirit in the immidiate future? Need for Speed Shift, episode 12 ;) And that about it for this entry. Stay tuned and stay safe.
