Really?
I'm dropping 3 pi so I'm losing not gaining, surely thats my choice as its a maximum pi and plenty of others in previous rounds have not gone to maximum pi.
I used kitch88s tune so really do not see the problem?

If we use the same logic, then neither yours nor cutters time will stand either laugh

Yay, a point. I was going to have one last go lastnight but I watched TV instead. I got to where I was with the standard 1.6 rally engine, wider stock tyres and a few bits of gearbox, suspension and aero. The next go would have been adding engine mods and taking off other bits. TC definitely helped with the rally engine and stock tyres.

Happy to get to sub 3:50. Sub 3:40 is just ridiculous and unnecessary hehe .

I was using the kitch car and was actually very surprised as to how good it was with that much speed laugh because it handled well too, my runs were error strewn though so I was well happy with my time but as aj said, anything under 1.40 was just ridiculous, I just don't know how they make such clean passes frown
I was smashing down fences on my best run laugh
Well done von

Some fantastic times this week, don't think I've ever seen such gaps before. I'd always assumed TC would be slower but clearly it can be faster under certain circumstances.

Well done for the win Von.

Thanks all - i do the seasonal challenges with my mate and we often do 1800bhp B class monstrosities which are impossible to control just to make it fun, so I've had a lot of practice with this sort of thing hehe

Thing is its not a sim and has always been better on a controller.
You know you can play it for fun rather than trying to be in a real car.
You are missing out if you do though.

I'm getting mx5 flashbacks laugh

What are all your feelings on cars, the mustangs have the speed but I cant get any of them to handle, the camaro is a nice mix of speed and handling, the 09 corvette is a peach.
Its a good track and you wouldn't want a higher pi, the jump into the fast left is a tricky one laugh

hehe

Car history in this so far: The first car I set a time with and liked was the Camaro ZL1, tried a few others and didn't get in with them so much, then tried the Holden Gen F (I think it's called that) and set a better time, then the the 09 Corvette and with the setup I've got I like it and went better again. I've packed in for tonight but I'm trying the 13 Mustang now. So far I've needed the better tyres for the fast corners, it's not like the Fiesta where you can hoof it round with stock tyres and twelvety hundred horsepower (for me anyway).

I've gone race tyres on everything so far, race suspension, gearbox and final drive, 4wd (of course laugh ) and not much tuning.
My limit is me, I need to properly nail the course and be consistent.

There's a very sharp right hander after a fast downward sloping section that always catches me out, I either brake too early or too late and go head on into the barrier.

Really like this track though cool
