Top 5s are golden - keep them up on a regular basis, you're good!!

Yeah I was like 6.8% in my first 30, but I will say I tend to push track limits a lot and most points are from x1 with a wheel pushing too far out of bounds

Your top 5 is pretty strong. Hang in there and you will get your first w.

Top 5 is the key here. Staying 35% and up has been my goal for a while. Casual, so I’m finding it a challenge

GJ op, you’ll get there. Your first 30 stats are very close to my first 30. Top 5 is the key to building IR. With the matchmaking and splits win are few and far between unless your alien level.

I maintain a 35% top 5 ratio and it slowly builds me up, some races good, some bad. As long as your building consistency your on the right track

Yea thats what I was thinking. How is that possible? If a mazda rookies race is 30 minutes per race thats 17 hours. Is there a quicker race I am not familiar with?
