2.08 affect on drag racing

[Tkpwns]

I personally think this was the most pointless update ever after messing with the aero I can only get my 8.999 acr to run 9.014 you guys have any tips and what are you guys running on rwd

 

[Slash]

I haven't run it.

 

[X3sgteX]

I know the ACR still runs faster with max DF since its a qs.

I'm not gonna retune mine...nor any other 130+ cars. The new update is minimal in terms of online play. Its only .015 slower than YOUR time. Everyone's tune is slower, not just yours.

Yeah it won't make a difference online anways.

My acr got .014 slower, now runs 9.004 , my 09 gtr stayed the same and my HPA Audi is .010 quicker and it has built in and non removable front and rear aero, I figured it was gonna be slower.

 

[Swara]

Anyone test out FF's?

 

[X3sgteX]

I retuned it lol... but it is for sure slower now

before 8.987
Now 8.996

@ swara
I tested the Taurus before the update and it to is slower now. No aero so it has to do something with the ride height they tweaked.

Hey it's still in the 8's though good job 3s

Thanks. I'm sure some of the guys who use the retro launch can get it back into the 8.98x's

Lol I still don't get how to do the retro launch I just do timed

 

[Street Racer]

I just always do a black screen launch. Then, when I get a good time, I press x at a random point (I found it be right after the '1' starts disappearing). But, I mostly just do a black screen launch on my tunes.
EDIT: And so does anyone know what will happen with the leaderboard?

The drag community really is falling apart. Lots of people including myself care.You might or might not care, but me and others do. :facepalm|ur|mom:

What, you've been here just under 2 months and it's already doom'n':censored:gloom! I agree with ptk. We don't need a leaderboard to tell you who is quick or not. Get a name, then you'll know who is and isn't quick..

I heard with the update there getting rid of the ghost, that'll stuff things up

 

[Madtuner]

Anyone test out FF's?

I'm testing them now will be posting when available but some are alot slower. Some are about the same times. As I have not changed any settings

Ex. Pre 2.08 Prelude SiR S Spec '98 11.717
Post 2.08 Prelude SiR S Spec '98 11.821


Pre 2.08 Prelude Type S '98 11.767
Post 2.08 Prelude Type S '98 11.770

Only if you turn on "deactivate collisions" so that draft gets deactivated in free run mode.

Leave it off if you don't care about having draft.

Yea you just need a good host to get rid of the bad people

i dont know man, my Ek still runs the same time for me. im running consistent 11.818 (yes its slow but decent online), even with the update it still runs the same. only thing that changes the time is if i shift wrong. i dont tune highpowered cars but i dont notice a difference in hondas.

 

[seanneedscar]

Theres no way the 2.08 update made his lude slower by .1

you guys are polluting this thread with your mis-shifted cars

 

[c-losk]

I only did a single run on my EK RM on and found it slower by .018 it might have been bad run cause I think that's too much but maybe tonight I'll give it a better run.

Last night I ran them online and really didnt see a difference. Its only on the ssrx, I was tired and maybe just not shift right. Its just seems that the 0-100 is most affected with the new update

Edit: Just ran my Ek and RM, And Im seeing very little difference only a +/- .003. I know I'm not pushing them to the limit. But they seem to be about the same, I can confirm that.

 

[ripcurl]

At least in 3k, seems like some cars that had traction "issues" are running quite a bit better, the likes of ciens, speed 12's, z06 rm....

The speed 12 with wing is much slower, the z06 rm too....

Cien is faster, that's true.


High downforce cars are slower on the 3k, low downforce cars faster. Non downforce cars hit about the same speed though.

 

[ripcurl]

i havent ran them, someone just mentioned they get better traction and faster then their non wheelie counterpart

 

[Slash]

I realy wish disable collisions was implemented differently. You can't ghost because it makes everyone ghost (unless you use lights). Ugh.

Yea it would be a good feature when you try and hit the car it goes ghost but otherwise your car looks normal and you can ghost then it would be a great feature
