Yep, the usual amount of fuel etc.
I assumed that being race cars, the "factory" settings for ABS and TC were equivalent to "off" because they don't have any, however if that is not the case then factory will do. Feel free to put it in pro mode if you like the extra challenge though!

I was in Pro mode and it felt that the Ferrari 599 has some factory TC or ABS built in as the Corvette was much more prone to locking up the inside front tyre until they were warmed up. Didn't get on with the Skyline but might try that later.

Remembered to update the RSR app (didn't catch my time last time) - http://www.radiators-champ.com/RSRLiveTiming/index...




I'm using bog standard G25 steering wheel settings for my DFP and it's so much better than I was using previously, steering wheel now feels connected to the wheel via solid metal rods and not elastic bands.

I knocked a few tenths off with a pad in the Ferrari @ 2:02.331

Looking forward to the next challenge

Beast, so smooth and in control.what setup you got ?

[FourWheelDrift]

Logitech Driving Force Pro (G25settings) clamped to my desk. As I mentioned earlier the settings make a real difference I get a much better feeling of being connected and no control lag.

Cracking lap FWD!

This is very intriguing - whenever I have used a force-feedback wheel in the past on someone elses setup, I can't abide by them as I often start to put on opposite lock to correct a slide before the feedback comes through the wheel - this then causes a huge tank slapper as the feedback makes me overcorrect.

What the next track/cars etc etc ?????

If no-one objects to me suggesting it again, let me experiment tomorrow afternoon and I'll let you know!

OK, so by popular request please find challenge 10 below!

Challenge 9 is still running, how do people feel about running on a rolling basis where 9 finishes on Saturday but 10 launches today, then Finishes next Saturday but 11 launches next Tuesday? Or would we prefer to end challenge 9 now and bring forward the cutoff for this one to this Sunday?

Anyway, after looking back at all the cars and tracks so far, and doing a lot of comparative research (lots of ideas for future challenges in my head now too!), I have chosen some relatively easy to drive cars but a real humdinger of a track

[Insert snazzy graphic here as I can't do them on PS4]

Pistonheads Assetto Corsa Challenge 10:

Mclaren 650S GT3 vs Lamborghini Huracan GT3
at
Black Cat County Short

Featuring:
Factory TC and ABS, no stability control, medium slicks, free adjustment of final drive ratio (but not individual gears)

The Mclaren feels like it has a lot more to give, but I find it slightly more skittish than the Lambo so each really hot lap so far has been ruined by a spin

End challenge 9, I thought it was dead on Sunday ,

New challenge accepted! Seeing you've a PS4 aswell your my competition

[FourWheelDrift]

Hate the circuit, though.

Pro settings on AC, nothing changed. My final gear ratio setting says 12/47 for the Huracan and 12/45 for the 650S I guess same as CC's metric default?
