He gives his car setting before starting the lap, have you tried those?

No, I'm not sure the game is accurate enough that real world good settings will be good in the game, and also I really couldn't be bothered messing about with all that. But if dialling down the stability and traction doesn't get me past his time, maybe I'll try that.

Oh ok, so based on that you too think that this game is turning into a ”cookie-cutter GT3-at-Spa sludge?”

Adding GT3 cars isn't a problem, IMO it's that a lack of career mode/objectives will naturally make online the only thing to do. Hotlapping can get boring after a while, which is probably why Shuto servers in AC are so popular.

Anecdotally, I only see people driving road cars in AC on these types of servers:
  • Drift
  • Cruise
  • SRP
  • Nordschleife
The other populated servers in my region tend to be:
  • GT3's at Spa
  • GT3's at Monza
  • MX5's at Laguna Seca
Unfortunately, I think Evo will be a hard sell to most people. Better physics and graphics alone might not be enough to convince people to buy a new game, when the older one covers 90% of their needs.

I’ll admit that if free-roam is scrapped, it will be a hard sell indeed. If it makes it to the game however, and turns out to be as, or close to as big as promised, it will be enough to keep me occupied for a looong time, considering how many hours I’ve spent just driving around the SRP map.

Only thing missing for hotlapping in EVO is a leaderboard for single player.
The ability to load best lap ghost would be great too

Has anyone here managed to beat his time? I did a couple of laps, and unfortunately ran out of fuel just before the end of the 2nd lap, but I reckon it would have been around 5 secs slower than Misha. I think I had traction and stability set too high, as the car was a bit understeery, so I'll have another go with those turned down a bit some time.

I did a 6:54 yesterday without touching the car. No DRS either because I didn't have the button mapped. I'm going to make some adjustments and try again later today. The car as-is, handles really well. I spent most of my weekend racing on Paul Ricard in the 488 EVO. The VR in this game is just insanely good.
