Expert Level NRC Ascari Challenge Winner!
[Pic to follow]
Since I have been tagged on this tune and a challenge was launched (

) I decided to spare a few moments during week to do a little test... So I decided to drive it like a maniac and the result was quite unexpected...
Without knowing the car behavior, a "drive like it you stole it" test was mandatory... And it passed quite nicely!
The tune handled everything I threw at it and still wanted more. Superior balance and handling, combined with a suspension on the spot to handle the fast/tight cornering of Ascari... The gearbox is flawless, like usual, keeping the car reving... No understeer in mid-corner/exiting acceleration and almost none oversteer.
The speed/top speed is incredible, the 7th gear was never used, but I believe on faster tracks it smokes the competition. And the extreme diet sure is present...
But two things failed to match the performance of this ride:
- Brakes - for me, while driving to the limit, was kind of "weak", failing me in 1 or 2 situations... (Sorry Mr.B!
)
- Tires - the tyres were the main issue. Despite being SS, they were no match to the car. I found out on the 1st test session that, has they turned red and started to make the car slide under heavy braking and fast cornering...
Overall, now I know why
@Bowtie-muscle says it's his favourite tune and I agree... It is indeed super easy to drive, fast and very stable... With a better engine sound (PD!

) it would almost be like watching IRL...
@Bowtie-muscle - Many thanks for the challenge, outstanding tune and a nice little GT6 session on working day...

Also on the weekend will do some more sessions...
PS: BTW, I chose the Gray Metallic!!
