That Belga Mustang looks good!
You could get the black border on the Belga logo in a few minutes.
For example, select the D and change it to black. Now duplicate it and change it to white.
Tap the R3 to the left (or right?) to make it slightly smaller.
Job done smile

You'll love the Tokyo daily.

If you brake, you get hit.

And the fastest times are set by people who have ridden around the walls in a way which hasn't gained a penalty.
nono Don't get me started on that race, my SR is E now and I only did it once.

What about the Megane, they tear away on the straights as well.

Tokyo is hard enough to get round in your own. I can only imagine how bad it must be racing other people rofl

Track dependent, obviously, but it remains very hard to beat.

They need to add more tracks and races ASAP.

Why it's always a one make race with dogturd TTs I do not know.

I hate any of the Tokyo tracks, they’re far too narrow

Yup. I gave up.

The Audi race is slightly better. The Maggiore race is less frequent but better again.

I did both twice this morning and enjoyed all four races. The TT was terrible grip wise but ok once you got used to it, where as I loved the RSR one. Laps 9 and 10 were interesting grip wise as the tyres went off!

Been wondering why I seem to be getting overtaken a lot just lately, even in BoP races, and whilst I still manage the odd win, it turns out that my R2 button hasn’t been working properly frown Only been getting about 4/5s of the power and hadn’t realised, so swapped controllers tonight and the difference is like night and day...thanks Crafty for pointing it out smile

That happened to me in GTA in races with customs turned off, I couldn’t work out how they were so much quicker than I could!
Challenger suffered from it too.

Looking forward to some more racing after work, I won’t lose an hour trying to beat a lap record today laugh

However, it really does help you learn the circuit better, I was so glad to see one of today’s races on the same track, it certainly helped a lot

The Audi race isn't too bad, they don't have the grip/pace to really hammer you off the track.

Feels like fake 4wd though. More like FWD.

Aren't most VW/Audi 4wd systems fwd until they need to send power to the rear??

It behaves as I expected, no power oversteer though like in the Evo/Impreza, makes the TT feel a bit stale.

Hey chaps, I’ve lurked here for a while, just never got round to registering.

I’ve switched from Project Cars 2 on the PC to this as I’m having much more fun online and I’ve had some really great races where everyone is racing cleanly.

That said, the 10 lap race yesterday by about lap 7 or 8 I was really struggling to manage with traction even though the tyres were about 25% worn if I understand correctly, is any one pitting in these longer races?

Also if you could add me on PSN that’d be great, I’d finally have some times to compete against in the “friend ranking” bit. smile

I think there's a subtle way of getting the best from it. I'm doing my best to control understeer and wheelspin (wtf?), quicker people are throwing it about and getting drive where I can't.

I cannot for the life of me race these. I always end up taking corners too quickly and going into a 4 wheel drift. So I just stick to the Gr3/4 races.

Are they changing the one make car every week?

It's been the TT for few days now, so I wonder if they are going to have a car for a week at a time and change the tracks so everyone can get used to the car?
