@gokartman78 how was the Honda?

got down to a 17.9 with 3 tenth left in it after about 7/8 laps in it, with new tyres it could do a 17.5 and maybe a 4 of you hooked everything up. Kills tyres though, not sure how it will do over 15 laps

Right because all I have heard is whinging and moaning about it all the time about how bad handling it is :rolleyes:

It understeers a but and isn't as responsive as the Hyundai, and people will complain because we haven't been to monza or silverstone yet, those tracks suit it well.

It's isn't as responsive as a RWD? Shock! Sorry for sarcasm but this season seems everyone is going RWD because they have no idea how to tune out understeer.

Just stick loads of toe out on the rear, I was running about -.75 and it livened it up a bit. @Niop taught me that trick back in the day, works wonder 👍

That with @hsv 's +10 +10 camber?
 
gokartman78
I'm pretty sure there was a glitch with 3.2 camber in gt5 @Akmuq might have said something about it...

Ahh good old one from NASCAR? Cannot remember numbers but it made tyre wear almost non existant.

Understeered like a pig. Was really not worth it, apart from a 46-48 lap race.

Ran it one time in that 50 lapper at Daytona. 10.0 3.2 IIRC? Was too slow for continued usage.

Yup, I was rekt and you were caught by Niop and knelly and couldn't compete.

Spurgy won with it in the NW race earlier that day though.

No offense to those who ran in NW but it wasn't entirely strong grid wise. I remember running near front for the entire duration of an NW race at Daytona supporting Grinols charge.

BTW guys - test saturday and official registration opens!

Suzuka east they were fast, pulling times that were good enough for mid pack in SC with lower specs

Weren't the NW cars actually faster at SuzE with their RM tyres?

They had RH in the season we were talking about, RM for the first season under Chqr and RH when Mule was in charge.

Ah, seems about right
 
I was just wondering, which time zone are the times in the OP for? I would absolutely love to compete if it is possible, however I would not be able to do so if the times work out badly for me

No worries, will be GMT when clocks change as well!
 
Just a heads up: From next week, I won't be on as often as I'm going on a work experience placement at my local Vauxhall dealer for a few weeks. I will still make the races, but I won't be on as often for testing and practice.
 
If anyone has any photo's from the ToCA test from last Saturday could you send me them before tomorrow :)
 
I expected more things to happen this week. Oh well.
