Hey, I started racing relatively recently and had quite a bit of success in class E and spent all of my racing points in upgrading one of my class E cars. I didn’t realize that after a while I would get to level D and with no racing points I keep coming last in races and have been stuck for a while. Any tips on how to get out of this situation?

Just keep driving, maybe get a different car for dirt and tarmac, you'll get out of D after a bit. Follow this guide to not be stuck again in the future. - Lightor [2215463] Officer

Its good advice for climbing and prepping for the next class but I'd suggest you'd follow Baldr's Guide as best as possible, it will set you up with a fully upgraded car in class A the second you reach it … - Lightor [2215463] Officer

After crashing my NSX 2 times in 2 days in Class A, I always came in last in Official Races. Then I crashed in my Cosworth - so dirt tracks didn't look good either. With no other way to earn Racing Points, I joined a Car Dealership. Now, I am back to winning - and have 80 extra Racing Points just in case.
you might be able to win with yer fully modded e class car for a few times. if you have torn tools, check to see if the percentages on the E class are slightly higher. i had the same issue goin into A class. my unmodded cars couldnt stand up against even the lightest of modded A class. i fully modded my B class before i learned the records were set with A class mods, so its able to win some races.. you may not win every race, but atleast youll get some points occasionally and build the other car. just make sure to only upgrade the new one. *this is a pic from tonight, i have lost alot of races to get this far*[image: i.imgur.com]

I had the same problem when I went from E to D, as racing was new to me at the time. I thought I'd be able to compete with my Citroen Saxo, I was wrong.
When I saw the BMW X5 was getting quite a few scores on, I decided to get the Hummer H3 instead. It seemed to beat most of the cars on Stone Park & Mud Pit. I'd come in 2nd / 3rd quite a lot which would give me enough for a few upgrades. When I upgraded the car enough, I stopped putting on upgrades.
My tip would be if you're seeing 2nd / 3rd places on some maps (maybe even 1st on a specific track), that's when you should stop upgrading and save your points for the next class.
I've been racing about a week and now in Class C winning most of my matches in 2nd or 3rd with a Holden SS.

Its good advice for climbing and prepping for the next class but I'd suggest you'd follow Baldr's Guide as best as possible, it will set you up with a fully upgraded car in class A the second you reach it and if you get the cosworth for class B, you will have 1 and a half car contenders for class A.
Absolutely, I plan on making a save on racing points as per the suggested advice.
Just wanted to give a small update, after some luck and constantly racing the past days I have managed to come on top and now consistently winning most races or going 2nd or third, I have around 40 racing points and almost in class C.
Nice work! I'm invested in this journey, as I too am on one of my own lol. 2.58 racing skill now.

Wow my racing skill is 5.2, and I'm lucky if i dont come last in my class C races ( ; - ; )
I'm afraid my low driver skill is restricting how much I can win in B
Your RS doesn't matter that much in officials at your skill level as you think, lower laps are quite random.
3.84 RS
413/475 racing points so far. If I can do it Ovee, you can too!

i have the same problem but i stuck in class C.i had a good ration of winning on D and even better on E.the bad thing is that when i promoted to C i had poinst only for 2 upgrades and now i end up always 6th or 5th.
