Who's kushy? Is that g???

Flip I've been thinking about ways to have a pace car. My thoughts were that if there is a big crash within the 1st 4 laps then those with mics call it and the leader drives around at say 50 until everyone catches up/repairs damage

Just a thought but think might be hard to implement.

As for the fiat what we doing I've not tried it but can imagine its dull. Norbs is the chaser a bit quicker??? hehe

The Fiat isn't actually that bad if you're racing in a pack - in fact it can actually be quite good fun - but if you drop out of the pack it's just terrible.

On your own it's about as much fun as a colourblind person playing Twister.

Indeed it is.!

Flip... Lets hope they introduce some sort pace car feature into GT6, unlikely I know, maybe obe day.

Chaser is surely a better option. smile

I think I downloaded that a long time ago! Will check...
I should finally race this Sunday, I have a spare chaser I think if anyone needs one. mx5 quali-races must be superb from what I remember of the excellent ring race :-D

I have about 3 spares I think.

I think the source of the trouble is the track rather than the cars, Fuji only works with specific cars, you need a reasonably fast racecar to make Fuji come alive. Slow FWD cars of any kind will never be great around there.

I'm predicting lots of skids with the comforts soft's, should be lots of fun.

G, it's right up your street, it's like a full-on drift car in this spec. It's going to be painful trying to drive it and preserve the tyres.

Flip, I will send you one now and confirm the spec.

Ok, here's the spec for the Chaser:

Standard weight, sports ECU, sports intake manifold, racing air filter, sports exhaust manifold, sports cat, semi-racing exhaust, 5-speed close ratio transmission.

Comfort softs and mediums. Very fast wear.

Mine is 396bhp, 1490kg and 487pp. And sideways. Veeeery sideways.

I did but no matter, I'll pick something similar.

I won't be around for this week as I'm at Spa on Monday biggrin
Trackday? Swine! I'm trying to get there this year having promised myself I'd do it for the last three. Still not made it dammit. Been every year for events but not a trackday.
Yep biggrin in a mates 7. I'll be flat through eau rouge while your at work cool
Pfffft.
Turns out Eau Rouge isn't flat and if you attempt it you come over the crest "a bit" sideways and new pants are required...
