Like all the track except corkscrew :scared: never get it right at all. Rome is easy just got to get the setup right
 
Seca is awesome and Rome was great in the FGTC, could be a merc track though.
Oh and bouncing off walls is an offence according to penal code 6, PTRA directive 30 paragraph 6 👍 :D

Basically Ferg and myself femaledogged about it because people where doing it at GVS in the tunnel :lol: :sly:
 
True and it was a discraceful act, thats why the person in question recieved a massive 20 point penalty!
 
Well I could publish the entire list which includes corner cutters but I dont think that would be necassary.
 
Was looking at the torque curves for the 3 cars and the Alfa one is quite wierd, it goes up quite quickly to 34kgfm, levels out, then drops a bit at high revs :confused: Thats probably why the Alfa struggles at the end of the straight, yet still has a similar top speed - torque lasts for longer at mid range so still has the pull, but at higher revs it has quite a bit less than the Merc and Cally. And also could be why it goes round the corners better than the Cally, because the torque helps it round - the Cally has a normal curve so realtively low torque at mid revs :) Right, thats my pointless bit of information done for the day :D

Yup I know. Thats why I wanted a turbo when we had 400bhp, because our torque was very low compared to others so out of corners we didnt do well. That was the problem but everyone thought I was moaning about power, when I was talking about torque

Its annoying because I have to go into another higher gear to get the torque and pull out of corners, something Ive had to learn.
 
A Welshman was washed up on a beach after a terrible shipwreck. Only a sheep and a sheepdog were washed up with him. Looking around, he realised that they were stranded on a deserted island. After being there a while, he got into the habit of taking his two animal companions to the beach every evening to watch the sun set.

One particular evening, the sky was a fiery red with beautiful cirrus clouds, the breeze was warm and gentle - a perfect night for romance.

As they sat there, the sheep started looking better and better to the lonely Welshman, soon he leaned over to the sheep and..... put his arm around it.

But the sheepdog, ever protective of the sheep, growled fiercely until the man took his arm from around the sheep...

After that, the three of them continued to enjoy the sunsets together but there was no more cuddling.

A few weeks passed by and, lo and behold, there was another shipwreck. The only survivor was a beautiful young woman, the most beautiful woman the man had ever seen.. she was in a pretty bad way when he rescued her and he slowly nursed her back to health.

When the young maiden was well enough, he introduced her to their evening beach ritual, it was another beautiful evening .. red sky, cirrus clouds, a warm and gentle breeze- perfect for a night of romance.

Pretty soon, the Welshman started to get 'those feelings' again, he fought the urges as long as he could but he finally gave in and realising he now had the opportunity, leaned over to the young woman cautiously and whispered in her ear,

'Would you mind taking the dog for a walk?'
 
Andy - Yeh, that makes sense, the torques at lower revs so changing up earlier will mean more torque :)
Etid - What I was saying was that the Alfa should have good pull/acceleration out of the corners and round the corners because its torque comes in at lower revs, but less acceleration at the end of the straight where your revs are obviously going to be higher, which makes it seem as though they have less straight line speed, when actually its the same :)
 
Hehe, thought you'd like it buddy..... Apparently it's a true story based on one of your great great grandfathers :-D
 
He was probably greatful to escape all the dogs in Wales lol........ Oh! You mean the DOG, canine... Lol, i thought you meant the skanky council house dross haha
