Its not set in stone yet ;) and sure I'm not even sure if I'll be available yet.. But trying to make sure I am 👍
 
Think my M3 will make it's return to S4 I feel so comfortable with that car and it has good pace
 
Just so you all know I am not available as a teamate as Ive already signed a contract for S4 (cyber 1 anyway) lol
 
This thread moves so fast even JK2 can't keep up, you guys need a news section on the front page for important stuff. What's the skinny on re-runing GVS? I suppose we didn't quite reach >90% on the 2nd rave of D1 but 1st race was complete. I am fine with re-runing, that night was a disaster with all the dc's. 1 lobby for the re-run?

BTW Jonzster would you consider fitting a tow bar to your S4 car?? Reckon i will be able to hook my car up going by lastnights race.:sly:

Yup best option we finks.

Very true but the weight split is terrible compared to the Alfa, Jk2 reckons its by far the worse car!??! Its torque value drops to 77 without so the options there to drop it, things subject to change remember. :) M3 is around 54/55 torque wise for the record its all round game rescues it.;)

I tried the cars a bit yesterday.

I have to revise my opinion about the Dodge with RH tires. Its now one of the better cars without supercharger. I think the lesser grippy tire changes things a bit. The rear needs to be more stable hence the front heavier cars do not have the same disadvantage as with RS tires.

I'm a bit at loss which car to pick. I tried some othe premium V8 cars. The Mustang with its 35/65 weight distribution just want to go straight. I also tried the MACH 1. Nice car to drive, but its slow. The Merc AMG C63 is timevice the closest to the other but a bitch to drive. Tried quite a bit to tune it but its still very twitchy mixing oversteer and understeer. It also seems to have less grip in the corners that the other cars.

Maybe I just take the least popular car of the six listed.

Hmmm it is a worry and i havent tried it yet didnt want to spoil things will have a word with them Duke boys:dopey:, is there a General Lee horn in GT5?:sly:

Johan not to blow our own trumpet and all that but i dont think theres a weak car in the 6 to be honest, not suprised you found the mustang impossible (KING!!). Will need to come up with something to balance the racing no fun for any of us otherwise will chat with my co pilot.

I might just be sticking with the Jag, the RH do help in that regard.

I agree, and that's why I looked at some other V8 cars slower than the 6 listed. If it will make me end up 5th (as an example) in the end result that's OK with me. As long as we have fun and close racing along the way. The most fun race for me was Monza where I ended 2nd.

But I don't think the difference is that big as many might think. The Vette and the Camaro were the best cars in S3. I wanted to use the Dodge and tried to get Immortalpilot to also use it, but he didn't want to. When he picked the Camaro which he thought was the best, I picked the other good car. I actually regret I didn't still use the Dodge. It would have been more fun. But I will not make the same mistake twice.
