Comgrats! Now the difficult job is trying to hold on to it while getting to SR.S!

It doesn't have to happen. You have the radar screen in game to see the position of other cars near you, plus it warns you by dimming the screen on the edges when a car is in your blind spot. The mirrors are fully functional, and it even displays the exact separation between you and the car in front and behind you, in real time by the millisecond. There's no excuse for cutting corners, pushing other people around or to blatantly hit them. And there's no excuse for the game giving you a penalty for getting hit by an out of control car or passing a ghosted wreck.
I love racing and GT is very good at it. Plus SR is an improvement in that it increases the odds you'll find good people to race against. However it still does a bad job at teaching people how to drive and is ineffective in stopping the bullshit. It has removed the joy of climbing up in the ranks for me by constantly having to worry about people ramming you and dropping you back out of SR.S class.
Plus matchmaking is very inconsistent and downright bullshit at times. I finally bothered again with setting a qualifying time and while I'm SR.S DR.D I get put between 2 laggy SR.A DR.B drivers at the start. Went from 7th to 12th thanks to that. I rather go from 16th to 7th avoiding first corners bullshit. You can't even quit out before the race starts when matchmaking does stuff like that as that's still an automatic down rank and reset of a clean streak.
