I am definitely going for a RWD next year, maybe even a standard car.
 
I'm not gonna be taking part anytime soon... As I said in the USCC thread I'm essentially homeless... Sorry guys :(

Serious!!:grumpy:

Mother of god Furi that Hyundai is one massive pile of donkey fuzz!:yuck: Has the Nissan had any upgrades since the OP was done (Heaviest and least power!:eek:)? If not would you or even better Joe give it a spaz round and tell me if its on par in your opinion? If so guess i'll go with that thing.:sick:

So sorry to hear Storm, hope things work out for you.

I've been speaking to steward about RWD, have you applied 10hp boost to Hyundai?

Yep think i remember Joe saying it was a bit plop i cant help agree:sick:. Let me know on the Nissan that'll do.:indiff:
 
I think Nissan is on par with atleast 80% of the field.
BMW is the fastest but me can´t handle her but as you saw Gokartman did and demolished everybody.
Civic faster too but thats because more power and way lighter than the Nissan.

Rest of the Cars are very competitive as DrifterJoe showed a couple of posts before.
Didn´t test the Renault but every Renault driver says more power (or just a LSD ?) => try and give them a boost too

So if Nissan gets a power-boost (or a LSD) I wouldn´t say no but atm its on par as said before (atleast for Silverstone and Ascari, will test on Spa too).
 
With the Hyundai getting a boost, all cars should be able to run 2:30/31's at Spa now. I always thought the Hyundai was overnerfed. The Nissan does definitely not need a boost. It handles like a dream and it's decent in a straight line.

I'm not sure how much the BMW will be hampered by the part-change. I hope it's not too much, because it deserves to be one of the fastest due to its behaviour.
 
The Hyundai weight nerf actually works at some tracks. I'm faster at Silverstone National(Which I will only do Race 1). BHI I lost 0.3 of a second.
 
Put one of the fastest drivers (if not the fastest driver) in the series in the best handling car in the series on a twisty track and that was always going to be the case.

The BMW's disadvantage is it's much harder to be consistent in. Spinning it out is very easy to do.

Plus it's a boat anchor in a straight line.

Forgot to mention that it kills you when it catches a whiff of surface water.
 
Concerning Ascari extra points (from my point of view):

Pole: Gokartman 2:08.5
Race 1: Joe (2:09.2 - Gokartman's 2 fastest laps were over white line braking for second hairpin)
Race 2: Yeratel (2:09.7 - Gokartman's again not clean)
Race 3: Gokartman (2:08.2 - this one was close, but I think it can be considered clean … and very impressive!)

So, the BMW's fastest lap was 1 second ahead of everyone else in all races. :scared:

:eek: So maybe the parts tweak is fair enough given the pace of someone like Joe.:confused:

Kartman's a better driver than me, JB.(Someday I'll get a wheel, or at least use L2 and R2 for brake and throttle. Might improve then.) Just tends to be let down by his connection or the BMW's stability.
 
BMW changes still being discussed. I'm very busy at moment so apologies for delays. Hyundai 10-hp boost is final however.
 
2:31 dead for my first test session isn´t bad maybe I can cut a few tenth´s off of that time.
But I think high 28´s are the times the pro´s out here get (some Civic and or Beemer driver :D *joke by the way*)
