final results for me

All of the cars feel great, especially the Renault has surprised.
I have not tried too many different options, so no clue how it all compares.
This looks awesome! I might come back and ask you for some tuning tipps of the Megane.

The current TT at Tokyo has eaten a lot of wheel time for me lately and it is some time ago as I have been at Road Atlanta. I hope for a final stint with my Supra at the weekend - but nothing you should be worried about... 😂

Almost the same for me. The Catalunya and now the Le Mans TT are so addictive, I've almost forgotten ATAQ :embarrassed:(shame on me!).

The last time i jumped in my GT3RS last week, i came no where near my old record. So i'm afraid i'm done with this one. Still need to share my lap and time.

NO BORE UP! too much torque for less power

Once again: thank you!
 
@Meythia Thank you so much for the tuning and sharing. I'm excited to try your Renault.

From my testing the FL5 Civic is the fastest in the Forgotten Wheel Drive class. More power and more aero. The Integra feels amazing, but it needs an engine swap to be competitive. Even then, the Integra may, ironically, be too light for this competition. My Renault was still refreshing quick amongst all the Hondas.

I'll post everything and finish my entries around this weekend. I wanted to try more [read: ALL] of the cars, but this required a lot more mental energy than the previous round. Definitely not complaining because now I have a bunch of fun [insane] road cars around 700pp on Sports Softs that I can use elsewhere in the game.

Thanks for setting this up @Gorefast
 
@Gorefast What is this thread about ?

The info is there (and updated).

Thank you for all the lap times! There are in deed some I was faster... 😂

And I am happy that you are slower with the FWD than AWD and RWD. Now my times feel more "okayish" for me... Congrats to these impressive lap times!

Goodness gracious man, you gotta be exhausted after doing all that work! Congrats...
 
No return to Road Atlanta for me because of some interesting regular time trials and other stuff. That means for round 2:

AWD: GT-R Prem. Edit. '17 - 1:20:935 (thanks to the settings of @Meythia ) /
RWD: Toyota GR Supra '19 - 1:21:679 (despite my own settings...) /
FWD: Volvo V40 T5 '13 - 1:26:301

I wait for the results of @ikon_313 before the summary. For next round I tend to stay with the rules and move to the old world to Brands Hatch.

(The one after Brands Hatch should have some changes to keep it fresh in my opinion. So far we were not in Australia yet in regarding of continents and could add a forced motor swap. Just one quick thought and I am waiting for your ideas...)
 
Here's my results from the other day. Didn't have time to go back for another session or test 4WD and FWD and wanted to try @rheinaoi 991 tune, but I doubt a sub 19 would have been in the cards for me, anyway. Great lap times everyone :cheers:

Lap is shared #ataq

Very loose setup... don't think it'll work with a wheel.

What about only use cars from a certain time, like between 2000 and 2010?
Or only cars from one of the 3 continents?
Or only FF cars?
Or a combination of that? (allthough to much conditions might make the choice to small)
But i'd stick to the power/wheight ratio!
Limiting to certain drivetrains seems like a good idea to me. Even though there's a pretty long time window, I struggle to try out each category and only having to focus on one would free up some resources.

Also sticking to the power/weight ratio and tyres felt like the perfect ruleset, without complicating anything. Maybe changing the ratio from time to time can spice up enough to bring variety to the car selection. Adding a maximum/minimum weight or power limit might also be interesting.

Sounds all very good to me and please keep 'em going. Maybe you also have a favourite track? Because of geographical reasons I thought about Mount Panorama but this one is rather long (something that I usually not prefer). At least at the moment I vote for tarmac.
 
Mount Panorama
Maybe a min. power to make the track "shorter" (on the straight and after its basically only slow corners) coupled with a max front downforce so its not all "diffuser" enabled cars (because all of it is short slow corners)?
First thought after reading your suggestion.

My problem with the track is that these corners aren't really slow... but I confess that I struggle there a lot. Any other suggestion is welcome. As we are a small group at the moment and the poll function is suboptimal I suppose that a regular chat might do it. I will keep your ideas in mind. 👍
 
Last stretch effort, as always.
With the Japanese Ferrari this time around. Samba pizza outdated settings applied.

Did few outings for about a dozen laps and quite frankly didn't expect to go this low with the time.
Satisfied with this one.

I love Bathurst, but wouldn't want to ditch the diffusor. It's really only fun when you can go flat out through the uphill and over the crest and we need all the downforce we can get for this ;)
