We just ran a couple of races at Mid Ohio at Saturday Nite Racing (SNR) in SCGT.
I thought my driving was pretty smooth and with good lines. However, when I reviewed the replays to write the race report, I was literally shocked to see how wild and erratic I was.
The moral of the story is, ALWAYS review your replays. The lines you think you took may not be the ones you actually took. And they may not be the best either. Mistakes and improvements can always be found.
I've given this advice before, but I've gotten away from following it myself. You PU'ers are probably better about following it, but it is an absolute must for SCGT'ers. SCGT races (and replays) can sometimes last as long as one hour. It's easy to pass up watching the replays.
With over 100 tracks available for SCGT (I only have about 70 or 80), it's imperative to review the replays. If the lag isn't too bad (a persistant problem with online SCGT races), you can study the lines and techniques of a faster racer and learn a lot.
