My race sucked again.

I now have a new problem lol. Im fine with the car I just wish I had a wheel so I could control the wheel spin without being slow. :lol:


Any idea on the cars next season BTW?

Anyway I am thinking Monza may be a good race for me. :)

Traction is the best thing for the dodge

Turn it up more otherwise your losing tons of times

My LSD is all the way down. I don't want to play with the setup too much because it goes round the corners very well ATM.


Anyway enough moaning roll on monza.

Ok. Thanks. :)

The problem isnt straight line traction. Its when I am turning the car it will spin the wheels if I straighten the wheel I have almost perfect grip. :odd: But that means I can't put the power down in the exits when you are turning but can easily go full throttle.

Yeah your car is oversteering too much. Its better when its more balanced - its difficult to setup but you gotta drive it smooth too
 
Turned any laps yet Jonz? Expect the Jag to be good here with its baseline speed:scared:
Had a quick go earlier low 149's in the Lex, felt off the pace to be frank.:crazy:

We going High performance FR route? Ie SLS, SLR, California, etc or going back to MR or what you planning?
 
For my Dodge-Heads:
I run 5/20/5 for my LSD.

Helps with turning (less understeer) and I have decent Traction out of turns (ask Gedi and Nel who are the ones who followed me the most).

I still drive with DS3 because no space and time for a set-up. But me think wheel is definately faster than DS3.

Bang on reserving Citroen C3.

Truth is Haitch havent thought to much about it or discussed with toad leader just realise as great as these are their a little tired and need a season off. Not to mention Stu misses the mark 1 toad.

You thinking of a whole new lineup?

Something along the lines of S2 would be good if we can work them close take the R8 out of the equation and the cars didnt seem to far off. Really though all just speculation chat done no real field testing to date.:guilty:
