we almost had the same accel in the tunnel (if I entered it right). My gearing was off a bit as well, 1200-1500rpms off redline on 6th gear coming off the tunnel..
Yeah, I know how to brake iforce. It's no big deal though, I recovered, then cenk got all crazy and I got run off the road trying to save it. I do want to apologize to Nic, I bumped early in the Schumacher S, and he spun. I really didn't mean to do it.
Cenk, I said the tire thing like 8 or 9 times, and it sounded like you responded, because somebody did.

All I heard from you was: "this is nice corner to spin" at the ring when you were chasing me and I spun LOL I wish I had a mic
yeah, really I didnt get your warning before the race (at the ring).
at GP/F, I remember exiting super wide and losing some speed at the turn after the shumi S, and I tried to flip the car to the right without much braking but lost all 4 tires for a second and leaned on you when you made your way all the way to my left I literally saw you at the moment of contact. apoligies..
thats my mindset as well, but I think every car has a happy weight spot. It seems like it wouldnt lose much cornering ability if lets say I went up to 1140kg. Another 10HP might be a better gain rather than 50kgs..
We really have to tune power/weight per track, but its just too much work I just do the gearing when a car is setup..dont even change suspension settings from the ring to the smoother tracks.
I had mine set at 266 hp/204 ft/lbs and 1208 kg with a wing set at 7.I built 2 cars,one with and one w/o a wing and compared top speeds and i was only losing 1-2 mph with the wing.
my setup
-4,0
9.0,10.2
6,10
5,5
3,3
2.8,1.0
0.00,0.20
10,30,20
wing 0,7
Which cars have already been used?I'm looking at 2 cars now but i think one of them might have been used before.
Here's my S2000 setup. It's still a work in progress – I think the dampers need to be stiffened and the transmission could definitely be better (suggestions welcome ).

@Nic: I double-checked the weight and it really is 1390kg. How did you get 302hp/1316kg @ 450pp? What am I doing wrong?
@IForceV8: I watched the replay from GP/F and you're right, there's a 1-2kph difference between us at the end of the back straight (me: 205kph, you: 203-204kph). Not much in it one way or the other in terms of top speed.
The premium Jaguar XK Coupe Luxury '07 is the car.
Two other good picks i considered were the Clio sport V6 and the Esprit V8.The Clio didnt make the cut because it's missing a couple of spark plugs and the Lotus is good @ 450 but it would be better @ 460-465 pp.
I had some fierce lag on S2K night. Very odd. I set the third fastest lap during practice on only one hot lap but was 3 seconds off my qualifying pace during the race. Cars were just flying by me like I was standing still.
Lightweight classics? I would love to do it again! I can't remember the exact details, but it should go Lightweight Classics Pre-1975 400 PP CS? All this means is that I get to race my Bus, Alpine, and Kubrlwagen.
Fun racing last night. It took a few races to get my Alpine dialed in...and I still didn't have much straight line speed, but I enjoyed throwing it into the corners by the end. I'm guessing Bowtie and Cenk added significant weight to theirs to get them that fast. I couldn't draft pass either of them, which means I was down on horsepower.
I literally saw you at the moment of contact. apoligies..
