Well it seems that everybody hates Fuji (mainly for the wideness and therefore for the invitation to cut/run-wide).
=> Why do we still stick to that Track ?? There are plenty of other great Tracks to choose from.

Madrid, Spa (well I know not all of us have the DLC), Indy Road, Daytona Road, Deep Forrest just to name the few.

I like the challenge of the Fuji Track (mainly the last sector) but for online racing ?? meh
I hope PD brings back all the oldschool Tracks I like:
Fuji 80´s/-90´s, Apricot Hill, Midfield, SSR-11, Rome Night, ElCapitan .....

Well maybe it happens and PD is working on this :D


If we keep Fuji I would assume to make some real big penalties if anybody is using the runoff´s too much.
Tire wear in R2 isn´t an excuse => brake earlier because in Real-Racing it´s the same.

@JB/Gedi: Further suggestions in Steward group
 
Im happy to drop it if thats what everyone would rarther, im still remembering season 1's Fuji race possibly the best race we ever had?? But things were a little raw then and i guess we pretty much let anything go back then!!:indiff:
I also have a concern with us using 2 divisions how we implement any penalties if the hosts/stewards are all rammed in one division?:crazy:

How about SSR5 not a track ive taken much interest in until very recently deffo an anti Lexus track though!:ouch:

Some cool night pictures to be had too!👍

So JB is cool to roll with the majority.:cheers:

I don't like Fuji, as I've said before, I don't seem to be able to find a flow there. However I'm happy to race there. All adds to the flavour, you have tracks that are good for some people and bad for others. Plus I think if there's a precedent for changing the track list it will open the floodgates. Just my 2c.
 
Can we try with more than 10 people someday, with different settings probably (damage off)? At least TOCA is coming back this week like that...

Do I have you buddied? Add me if not, I need moar laps! Found a 1:41 last night, but I'm still a ways off.
Andy, I'm still yet to try your setup, but found that shifting the brake bias made a world of difference. I've got the balance close to perfect for me (pointy, with a smidgen of oversteer if you're taking the mick). But it just doesn't seem to be quick.

Also, the driving line on fuji is a LIE! LIES I TELL YOU! :yuck:

yeah brake balance does a lot of difference. You just have drive smoothly, don't throw it into the corners, it doesn't like that

Hope this helps 👍

Tyre wear (so the "flaw" thread says) dosent effect the bug:crazy: I say we keep things to a minimum GD damage/visual damage off may help.

Jhodas keep pluggin away so Fuji F stays?? Good!👍

Will pm you im gonna sound stupid otherwise lol!!
 
Agree with all of the above. I don't like Fuji but thats the challenge. Every one has 1 or more tracks they don't like, but thats not an excuse to cut it from the calendar or not show up to race. Also would be good to get a few in a room to familiarize (had to use spell check there) them selves with quali rules etc.
