So I'm back (finally) :). And I am asking for someone to give me the gist (summary/overview). Of what update 2.08 did. For drag racing of course. I want to know because it crashed the day before it and I don't want to come in blindly. Thanks

P.S. I got the new super slim ps3 and assassins creed 3. So I will try to get on but AC3 looks pretty good :). But I will split the time lol.
 
The only thing you need to change is your downforce for AWD cars, those are now minimum and not max. Everything else remains unchanged.
 
Ok. Well I have some news. Bought the newest model of ps3 the super slim. And it doesn't work. And the other games still don't work. It's not my internet I tried it at different locations. Sony said they have never seen this before. Also the guy I talked to said buying a new system would fix it but it didn't. So I'm not back.
 
You guys arent fully correct.

What 2.08 did was give LESS of a benefit for both downforce, and max front ride height (on applicable cars)

FR / MR cars that got a .020 benefit from a wing will now get about .010

Same equation with ride height (for the most part)

The following is my list of cars that I re-ran. The time next to the car name indicates how much slower they are. We will need a new Leaderboard for sure

Cuda - .012
Mach1 - .021
Superbee - .022
Chevelle - .020
Charger - .020
SVT - .016
SL600 - .014
Spirra - .007
No Stripe - .009
ACR Viper - 0.011
McLaren F1 - 0.011
Enzo - 0.010
Camaro Z28 - 0.020
Camaro Z28 RM - 0.010
Supra - 0.018
ZZII - .009
SLS - .008
Cougar - .008
GTSR Viper - .008

As you can see, muscle cars and FR cars got hit the hardest. MR cars got hit slightly, and AWD cars did not get hit at all, except for the ZZII with its default downforce

What you need to do:

Remove the wings from all of your AWD cars, and / or set the default downforce to minimum

A few cars are faster now without a wing. Off the top of my head, from what I can remember:
Ouillum Spirra
Benz SLS
