All sounds good too me I will find there psn names if they don't add me 1st 

only thing I don't like in race setting is boost it seams to make other players lag and that dose drive me nuts when they skid all over the place and you end up spinning around like a stuck man in a V8 in the rain

Hey everyone. Looks this is starting to get some traction. Not sure what people would like to do but there are three car track combination I wold like to try/practice this week.

Renaultsport Clio V6 24V '00 @Grand Valley East

Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione '08 @Rome

Caterham Seven Fireblade '02 @Autumn Ring / Reverse

If anyone would like to try them out also that would be fun.

That sounds good to me Joby. I love the 8C. It can be a bit of a handful, especially on used tires, but there are few cars that look as fine as that thing. I pretty much love all Aphas. I’m sure I have the Renaultsport Clio somewhere, but don’t know if I’ve driven it. I’ve run the Caterham quite a bit the last few nights running with Alleycat (who’s a good dude, by the way). I’ve started to get used to that twitchy little car.

My connection can be a bit spotty at times, seems to be related to what the weather is doing and if there is Vog in the air (volcanic “fog”), but maybe it’s just a coincidence, I don’t know. Working on going wired. I say this so if any of you see me lagging, just tell me and I can fall to the back as to not disrupt races. Most of the time if the connection is spotty, I just get disconnected.

ADzstat and Jay, feel free to go ahead and shoot a FR if you want. On weekdays, I get on a bit later than most since I’m in a different time zone than the rest of you (well, halfway around the world from you ADzstat).

I will run sport soft on the 8c and Caterham and sports hard on the Clio. I run all aids off (abs1) but I will not restrict the rooms. And boost will be off, slipstream weak, off track grip real. Of course these are just my preferences and in no way do we have to run that.

For this group of cars they all have an oil change and have been run in (200 miles) but have no tuning. Feel free to tune or not tube as you desire:)

No problem. I just want to have fun. And I will be jealous of your gear ratios;)

...maybe I will grab another Caterham and throw some custom gears on it and see how it compares:idea:

Alleycat, looks like I just missed you last night. Got home late from work, then spent time with the wife and kids discussing the "swamp romp" race we are all running in next month. By the time I got on, you had just signed off about 20 minutes prior.

Pretty sure I'll be on earlier tonight though (hopefully).

Working on an idea.How are you all at running dirt tracks? I hope you all are as bad at it as I am.If so this might be fun.Thinking American muscle cars,and the Buick GNX on dirt.Kinda like the local Friday and Saturday racing you would see in most town in the U.S.Lots of metal bending and beer drinking.we would use easy created tracks...What do you think? now go make us a track and share it.nothing too darn hard though
 
Add me, I am in So Cal
