I got d/c'd and couldn't get back in.
Norbs' DC2 was massively faster than the one I took out of my garage and threw tyres/turbo/ballast/restrictor on to.
We were discussing this after. Power was everything not sure in general or just that circuit. Norbs' DC2 was massively faster than the one I took out of my garage and threw tyres/turbo/ballast/restrictor on to.
Also to note we discovered no difference in PP between carbon and sport brakes.

Switched to the Integra and chucked a turbo on it with ballast and a restrictor to get 525PP and was a bit quicker but still nowhere near in terms of basic pace in the car. I need to spend more time understanding PP vs components and setup tuning.
One issue with this is the number of credits you have to invest to buy for parts to test, when credits are so hard to come by with how the game is set up at present - hopefully a short term thing. Just buying tyres for these 2 cars was a gold circuit experience worth of credits.

Tried to join last night at 8:22, but I don't pay for the online bit, and hadn't paired any headset so gave up. Will join next time.
What was the fastest lap last night? I want to see how bad I am in comparison
In the Race, Norbs was deep into the 2.12s and had a couple (I think) in the 2.11s.What was the fastest lap last night? I want to see how bad I am in comparison

If we're going for a re-run on the same race as last night for next week could you possible post what upgrades you installed on your Integra?
Off the top of my head, it was sports suspension, sports ecu, sports filter, sports exhaust, sports clutch/flywheel, fully custom diff, sports brake pads, bore up and camshafts. My livery had a splitter and a wing so I fiddled those stats to get me to 525pp. Added ballast to get to 1200kg but didn't mess around with it's location. My car had 227bhp. Noddie has tuned his to over 230bhp and is now quicker than me.
I have done a 2:10 once and Noddie has done a few now. 2:11 is more the usual time for a good lap for me.

Its all about the bhp. You want as much of it as possible. On this track BHP is king over good brakes/suspension.
Were you adding as much power as possible above PP525 then using the power restrictor to bring you back in to the PP525 target, or just getting just to around the PP525 point?

Would it not be easier to just all run the same car on fixed settings?
We were talking about that maybe for another week. I know that with some being late in with little practice we going to run same event next week but with more practice so hopefully it be a bit closer. For reference 2nd 3rd and 4th were running 2.14-2.16 per lap but I found out I was down on power as I focused on big brakes etc. For anyone in the chat if people want to get together for a evening test more than welcome to set up a lobby. I will do one Wednesday night for anyone wanting to join before Thursday. I did try a new civic type r which can be made to work but it is heavier than the integra. May be another car out there that may work better.
