So you guys say 1:50 is a competitive time? Is this after your tires starting to wear out? Or just after a few warm up laps? Just curious cause the maserati is still no where near done tuning and I'm running a consistent 1:47 on 7-8 laps
 
Run that Monza lap and see RP remember around 1.50's ish 👍
With 543bhp, 1423kg and racing medium tyres, I got a 1:51.9. Could probably get another 1/2 second off of that. Sound ok-ish to you?

Is that Camaro RM'ed? I thought RM wasn't allowed right?
No, its not RM'd. It just has all the aero parts as per spec 👍

Bloody hell, thats quick! :eek: What tyres did you hit that time with?
 
Ah ok, thanks 👍 I'd hope to get similar times on racing softs

As has been mentioned though, imo you won't be able to go race distance on them

What do you reckon?
 
I did 7-8 laps and they are maybe 1/3rd worn out. Working great for me if u ask me.

Again my times where in the high 1:47
 
1.47 and people say that the M3 will kick ass... I think not! i can only get 1.50 at mo.
 
I suppose some cars will be harder on their tyres, and that'll go for drivers also :lol:

I'm having a few beers and doing some testing tonight, so hopefully I'll end up more aware of what I need to be doing

I'm tempted to put some bigger wheels on it and paint it matt black 💡 :D
 
I'll see what I can do with an m3 tonight. Racer Paul n 69 add me n we will hang out n do some practing
 
Real basic tune with M3 ran 1:47.0XX, Lexus I ran a 1:42.XXX... I know I am in the American League... but I'm always up for tuning!
 
So I think I must of been in some groove last night lol. Been testing n tuneing for about an hour now before dinner and best is a 1:48.7 lol idk what was with me last night or maybe it's tonight idk but we will see

1.42 ouch.. well im glad your not in our one.
I need a lot of practice as im only getting 1.50+
 
Who else thinks we should all meet up in the next few days for some testing?
maybe tmw night as johnboy is away till then.
 
Ya I should be on. 69 add me. I tried adding u today n it didn't work. And don't worry 69 you will get faster. Maybe I'll grab another M3 and help you out
 
From what I could always tell is that the 07 M3 has no where near the same gearing as the CSL. ThR newer3 gears seem almost lazy, I would change them gears separately one gear at a time and get some very aggressive gears in it first.

Thats one of the things that im not familiar with.
I find the brakes on the M3 are so lame.
 
Spots still going, also couple of people need team mates.
 
JB is back sounds like theres alot to catch up on!!! Did i notice some 1.47's in there ouch!!:nervous:

Remember guys must do atleast 1 pit stop race 2.👍

Had a chance to run the M3 round Monza yet SVT?? 💡 Hope you can do a similar time in the BMW more than likely me and 69's lack of talent hopefully!!
