Just saw that. Well, that was dumb. He could create a dupe account and get it back if he wanted to though. :)

I could yeah but that would take too long to get it in time for Wednesday :(


Think I will get one of the top clios and test that out and maybe try and trade a veyron in the next day or so too. 👍
 
Alpine A110 1600S '73 is my favorite French car.
 
Right, I have bought a Veyron so think I will try that out.

Any tips for setup on this car on the Madrid circuit?

Cheers
 
In my honest opinion, I think a fully tuned Citroen C4 2.0 Coupe is the best. It reaches 190 easily and can lap the 'Ring in around 7 minutes. Oh, and did I mention it can beat a Wedssports IS200 Touring Car on Daytona? It's an amazing car, and best of all, I got it from Gold+Silver on Loeb Challenge.
 
Try the 2CV. It's a beast, especially if you paint it pink. Somehow that makes it go faster.
 
On the Veyron, it takes a bloody long time to get it to stop on the Madrid circuit! Any suggestions for settings to the brakes?

Also, it doesn't like turning around corners either!! Should I add rigidity improvement?
 
I really like the Hommell Berlinette, though I am nearly unable to drive that little monster. With Race Meds it is really fast..

Up the brakes from 5/5 to higher values (eg 8/8), keeping whatever bias you prefer.
I can't say if the chassis rigidity does much. It seems like it increases understeer but I can't be sure.

I'd stiffen up the rear, or soften the front.

Lastly, often the problem with turning the Veyron is the driver. It goes a lot faster than people may realize, so you've got to slow down a good bit more too. I often find myself plowing into walls as I just didn't realize how quick I entered the corner. 👍
