It's going to take a while to get used to the extreme toe-out of the Jaguar, but the Cobra felt very nice.
Speaking of Jaguar, would it be okay to use the chromeline version, as it matches the Cobra livery better? I noticed that it has one PP less than the normal version.
If you have a Chromeline XJ13 already, by all means try it on the comfort soft tyres and use it if you find it faster or it suits your driving style better. I tested the Chromeline version and for me it was slower and more difficult to control so if you haven't already got one (or lots of spare credits) give it a miss.
Team Chevrolet drivers can opt to use a Z06 Corvetter Race Car 1963 in place of a Jaguar XJ13 if they wish - anyone planning to do this please let me know asap.
Team Shelby drivers can opt to use a Cobra Chromeline in place of a Jaguar XJ13 if they wish - anyone planning to do this please let me know asap.
The Test Round 0 was very successful. The cars were well matched and Harsk, who won all four test races, produced virtually identical times in his Jaguar XJ13 and Art Morrison Corvette. There were some interesting variations with IfAndOr producing an outstanding result in his XJ13 while some struggled with this car.
There were some incorrect colours on the Team Shelby Cobra's - embarrassingly including your Host Sick Cylinder - I have several versions of the car and I hadn't noticed that the one I had painted had the bumpers removed and therefore wasn't allowed in the room - note removed bumpers are not allowed in a tuning prohibited room as they count as aero modifications.
All Team Shelby drivers please refer to the following guide:
A small number of drivers (including Sick Cylinder) will be allowed to run their Cobras as Allen Grant replicas in Daytona Yellow - for information on Allen Grant and his famous yellow Cobra named "The Executor" refer to the first few posts of the thread.
All Team Chevrolet Drivers please refer to the following guide:
The Test Round showed that we have too many dark coloured cars on the grid therefore I have withdrawn the Forest Green colour from Team Chevrolet. Please refer to the revised colour charts below: NB all Team Chevrolet Jaguar XJ13's are Garnet Red and fitted with a race number Type A, Font A. The Art Morrison Corvette cannot be numbered so all are given a different colour as detailed in the following guidance.
All Team Shelby Jaguar XJ13's are painted Guardsman Blue with a race number Type A, Font A. Cobra Chromelines are painted Guardsman Blue except a small number of Allen Grant replicas which are painted Daytona Yellow - race numbers as usual are Type A, Font A.
All cars have stock wheels except the Art Morrison Corvette which uses American Racing VN500.
) but that's what made the racing so much fun.
