Standard V8´s :D
The Premiums are overused IMHO

Trouble is so few seem to have aero available hense why i mentioned the Callaway thing. Cars like the Saleen dont and are real tricky to handle.:nervous:

Not PP toad yikes!!
 
Than no aero, because rearwing isn´t always faster (S2 Carbonox at Suzuka comes to mind where he annihilated us).
And the rearwing kills the looks.

Why yeeks at pp ?? was fun and close racing.
 
PP is an awful system IMO. Do it as you are doing with weight and power caps.

SLS was pathetic using PP as a guide granted others seemed fine i think.:dopey:

Yeah, and the McLaren was rubbish at most tracks with the PP system, good at Le Mans and High Speed Ring I believe though.

Yup lesson was learnt:ouch: Do use PP as a rough guide though other than that pretty plop.:yuck:

Ak correct was a bit of a handful be nice to work it in more competitively though.:drool:
 
But S3´s Benz SL ??
So both systems have a flaw... they don´t like Mercedes xDD

R8 was too strong because you didn´t limit the power// added weight due to it´s AWD (every RL-Series does this)

The problem with the Merc in S3 was you could not do enough weight reductions on it not the rules.

Correct King C63 had the same issues no matter how much help we threw at it.:grumpy:

R8 was a mistake King, perfect we is not but we have learnt from it. Tyre dynamics changing midway through the season did us no favours killed the season really.:ouch:

Nope, it was just the PP system was wrong on it, it should have had been a few more PP anyway, not all 4WD's are PP killers, in fact, the 3 cars which murder at 500PP are the Lotus Evora, BMW M3 CSL and the Honda NSX, so 4WD isn't the PP-beater in this game.

I fought with Ford GT almost for Championship => she was maybe too strong too :)

But the effort you made for S1-S4 is immense and overall result is very good and provides decent racing.

@akmuq: I know, but if you do shuffle Races and get a R33 or a Subie/Lancer you give above Cars a lesson or a tight race.
AWD gives you more stability and if you have wornout Tires you have more control left. In addition RA-Function of the Center-Torque-Split in race, if worn tires 50/50 and normal 20/80ish so you have even more control :D (hope you know what I want to say :D)

Can we just start from S3 again? I am bad luck brian and I just found a good setup for all the cars for both this season and last. :lol: I complained last season that even the Camaro understeered or oversteered now I have a setup where it will turn brilliantly. :lol:

I think I can sort my dodges problems with a bit of camber so I should be ok now.

I hate 4wd cars - like the Alfa 155, just felt horrible :yuck:

I dont think theres any need to focus on S5 yet, due to S4 being only 4 rounds in so I'd focus on the championship ;)
