I agree completely. Depending on which Seasonal Event it has been, I have been having a LOT more trouble getting Gold. Some of the GT Academy based Seasonal Events I never did Gold, as was the case with the Lambos at Nurburgring. The best that I got there was 2nd Place, about 5-6 seconds behind the leader. I don't mind the challenge at all, in fact I am happy that the Seasonal Events got more difficult.
To reiterate my favorite point someone( probably Ex) said in another thread about this," it's about the commitment not the equipment". People on the top of any TT have spent countless hours playing the game, and because they are committed to being the best, logic dictates they want to use the best tools. You can always compensate for lesser tools if you work hard enough.
I'm sure your skills are fine, I'm not inherently fast by any means either. A wise man from a mysterious land says to break each race down into smaller chunks and attack it that way. If I lose the first race I note the winners time and break it into laps, that's your goal, not the race itself but the lap time you need to win. Go to the practice section and work on your laps their, it's easier to change your setup and get immediate feedback. Just some thoughts.
