As I was unaware of high deg setting in Q7 for the eSports qualifier I over trained in the slower med deg conditions, and couldn't complete a solid run to qualify as a result.
Weeks later I turned DR2.0 back on to test a new dual action (push pull) shifter, and decided to re-practice that stage with high deg in the R2 (stock setup). Within an hour or so beat the top times with 6 mistakes and 3s to make up on a clean run. Makes me both salty and happy at the same time lol.

How this win was achieved with Stock engine, competing against fully upgraded cars, in order of importance:
1. Recce of Poland with Dirty Pacenotes the day before.
2. RaceTrack Data Acquisition to generate a decent setup.
3. RaceTrack Data Acquisition to monitor pace during stages.
4. Ultrawide gaming monitor with TrackIR 5
5. BN Enterprises Fanatec Handbrake Hall sensor kit for reliable repeatable HB application.
6. Tyre conservation due to service gaps. Heavy understeer near the end.
Counter productive: had a crash and roll in the early stages, losing 15s.
