I still maintain the biggest difficulty is braking with a controller, and a 1mm bit of trigger travel that goes from no brakes to fully locked.....

Time updated a bit, image in previous post. Final drive as short as possible, probably a bit extreme tbh but stops you bogging down in gears.

Got some planned time this weekend to give it a go.

Had a quick set of laps last night and the car takes some getting used to. Seems very easy to over do it

[Merry]

Got it down to here, took a few laps, seemed to have hit a wall though. Not an easy car to drive!

[griffchris]

Lot of effort gone into this, very addictive!

hmmm, maybe I'm missing a trick by running the shorter gear ratios, seeing as everyone else leaves it on default?

I was on shortest ratios, just didn't update the table

I enjoyed that track n car combo very much,


Looking forward to the next challenge !

[ChemicalChaos]

With just a few hours left to run, will griffchris knock ash73 off his perch? Will FWD make a very late entry and beat them all?

In the meantime, I'd like to introduce you to Challenge 12

This week's challenge - "Pure Italian Driving Pleasure". Beautiful handling car, smooth flowing track..... what could possibly be better?

If you quote on the post before you can copy and paste the table and adjust it in a new post. You'll see how the grid/table is constructed
