OK, I'd like to forfeit my locked in spot in run in Pre-Q please. 👍

How come?

My pace at Laguna is abysmal, I'd rather earn my spot on merit. Technically, yes, I have already done that, but getting an early car choice is reward enough. I get the feeling that there are people more deserving of the place looking at representative laptimes. :cheers:

Players/Member List displays the BHP and Weight of cars on track, tyres can be scrutineered through the replays, everything else on lobby settings.

I found where to locate the pp and bhp etc. thanks for the responses. if you are running street cars and you want to confirm what modifications have or have not been installed is there a way to do that as well? thanks in advance.

You have free choice on tuning and parts, provided the car meets it's weight and BHP limits specified on the OP. Of course, tyre restrictions are there as well. In terms of aerodynamic parts, splitters and wings are permitted, flat floors are illegal. Again, this can be scrutineered through the replays. 👍

Are you feeling okay? Did you fall over and bump your head? :banghead:

@True-blue-8 - So this now gives us 5 people that can advance through the pre-Q?

👍 Yep, it's a little worrying to say the least.

💡 Maybe at the start of the race, instead of an old Le Mans start where the drivers sprint to the car..... the BMW's could look more like this..........

......BMW drivers can then assemble their cars while we get a head start??

EDIT/// On second thoughts, that won't really help you @NinjaEvo! Oh well, I tried mate.
 
As your aware I cannot make this week's test so that gives another place up.
 
Last night was great @Ian_83
Our pace was even at Rome, although I kept clipping the walls in race 2 :banghead:
I am very happy with my tune, and those times were all my PB's :rolleyes:
@sb360 am I right in saying that you mentioned you was in the 1.32's at Laguna?

Yeah, not done it online yet, but in offline time trial I had the Integra in the 1:32.7s, think I have been mid 33s online but it varies lobby to lobby I find.

What sort of times are you getting?

Edit: to tag @xflow1390
 
Online mate, I try to do all my testing online
 
Right blue me not moaning at all trust me :)
Last race I had Ninjaevo finished 10 secs in front at laguna, he was not fast really if you take in Xflow times.
Best lap was in the C4 but not me who done it, I still have to get the C4 in the 1:34s.
Do it in a golf but not in the C4 Grrrrr.

Been doing race 1 format 13 laps pit window 5 to 9, FF cars not got any tryes left with the setting on Fast.
Now think on 2nd race few more laps and tryes on very fast ok we can use SM like us all.
But I'm worried FF cars just eat grip to much on the settings.
I think Rolo did normal to help keep the car even, not 100% sure maybe Ian can give some light.
Maybe Skeng or maybe ask rolo on his thoughts I know Rolo spying in here.
I'm sure a Pm chat with Rolo Skeng and Ian there all post there thoughts and help you anyway they can.
I'm not saying there be right but they may help in findings on grip with FR to FF cars.

Race 1 format my C4 and the golf hitting 4 and 5 or was it 5 and 4 on the front?
FF cars on 8 and 10 on lap 3! where a nissan 9 all round on lap 4.

I know this post will but Ian right back in test mode looking at it, but Mikey wanted me to watch him.
This where I noticed grip lvls goning off FF cars really fast to FR cars.

I don't think this happens on all tracks not 100% sure I'm right on laguna.
Pam can hit 1:32s in the honda I think that's FF, but I can't get close to it :(

I don't honestly think there is going to be that much of a problem, FR are always going to be inherently better at looking after the tyres. There is nothing you can do about that, it will always happen and thats fine. FF have an advantage in straight line speed and this will make them difficult to pass.

We need to run the format test with a full grid on Wednesday to really identify problems but from what I have seen I don't think we are going to have any problems.

It also may be partly down to tune, when I was starting out with testing I threw a tune on the Integra that was absolutely awful on its tyres, spinning up everywhere and losing grip very very quickly, my current tune I was almost the same on tyres as the BMWs after a long race, I think I was 1 point worse on the front but 3 points better on rears or something. Try softening the suspension and taking a look at your diff settings if you are struggling with tyre wear, it made a night and day difference to my wear in the same car around the same tracks.

Hang on, if I follow your saying that race 1 tyre wear should be normal? It is meant to be 👍

I'm sure you hit high 1:31s last night Xflow, and there was no draft for you as you was in front all the way lol
