Latest online race event, I think we're supposed to use LMP cars there.
However I've made new account, and was buying all the DTM cars from the OCD.
To test those cars, I decided to drive the Nordschleife 24h in the latest online event.
And behold, thats tough racing :D It's fun to drive with 630-640PP cars against the rest.

Recipe:
DTM car, fully upgraded, racing soft tires.
All aids (except ABS) off.
With the old Toyota in from the CPU does about 7:50, but when the Minolta is starting in fist place he does ~7:41
SUper fun racing :)

I didnt realise online events could be fun with underpowered cars, because I have no self eehmm restriction? How you call it. If I can drive with 900HP in a 50HP race I can't be bothered to use 50HP I go for the 900HP immediately.

My question is: anyone know more races that are fun to drive with cars not actually 'designed' to use for the race?
So, anyone know of races where Pd wants you to use car-type X, but are much more fun to drive with car-type Y?
 
Compact car seasonal, I used a go-kart. I dunno if that's a "wrong" car but it was a good challenge.

Didnt even know that was possible :D
Gonna try it out, thnx for the tip :)

Anyone else have good idea's?
 
I've once gone in a race for cars with range of 100~180 horsepower with an underpowered Fiat 500 tuned to match equally to their performance - Well manageable in turning in at each section of corners but soon overtaken in every long straight on the whole track. :rolleyes:
