Really enjoyed Sunday, cheers guys. Special thanks to whoever punted me off at the first corner, saved the embarrassment of me being overtaken by everyone or stuffing it in to the scenery myself. Had great fun chasing Harry in the Astra until my ambition outweighed my ability and he waltzed past.

Do we want to allow a car change?

I’ve had a couple of messages about after the first race, people found their cars really uncompetitive.

I’m happy to allow one car change, but once it’s done - you can’t go back. Maybe you have to change now (after the first race)?

I for one would be thankful for it as my car was an absolute shed rofl

Happy to go with the majority smile

I have no issues with, tbh it was my car that dropped me in it for the PI drop and points reduction for fastest lap.

I prefer chasing to being chased.

Thanks again for a fun night and future races, great concept Tim

There are some others in C class that would work too.

Many of the cars I've listed would need a small dose of ballast to make 690 minimum.
Don’t want to derail the hot hatch thread but built a few of the above and a few more as well…

Expecting the more obvious ones to be taken before I get to select mine so have a couple of left field choices.

Does anyone fancy having a go at tuning these?

- BMW M1 (I normally run a BASF livery so good chance to put it on the right car)
- Alpine A110 (justifying having one)
- Megane R26 (not sure putting >400hp through the front wheels is a good idea)

Been using Catalunya short (with final chicane) as a test and think they need to be in the 1.17s to be competitive. (None of these are anywhere close currently!)

Does anyone have a list/screenshot of the fastest lap times in the race? Curious to see just how off the pace I was.

Yessir.



I’ve just built a new car at my C480 and I’m getting mid 1.29s so I’m happy with that.

Thanks Mr suffel. Had a play with another car, but have managed to get the Clio down to 1.29s consistently after a few tweaks.
