Thanks!

I think my time is 1'36.8xx (or 1'36.6xx; I can't quite remember) with the CTR.

I also attempted to improve my CTR2 time, but struggled with my tuning (trying to reduce the oversteer feeling) and only got a slightly better 1'34.8xx.
 
I thought the feeling of not being able to accelerate coming out of a corner is called understeer?? Isn't it?


You're right... I meant understeer, not oversteer!

:ouch:


On a lighter note - I did improve with both cars, but only by a tiny amount.
 
The CTR2 has around 500hp, and 4WD, so understeer would be common.

I'm nearing my final times. All I can say is... My combined time is under the 3'10 mark. :D

Didn't mean to nit-pick, you just confused me - but i'm easily confused. By how much did you improve your times? 'Cause I'm nowhere near as fast as Dan and you:nervous:

CTR 1'37.0xx
CTR2 1'35.1xx

It's not you, it's me! I'm 'Mr. Confusion'! Trust me... I'm easily confused in my old age.

ha ha ha

Dan is way faster than me in this challenge. My combined time is in the 3'11.xxx range. You're less than a second slower than me, pvr. I'm guessing that Dan is about 1 and a half seconds faster than I am at the moment.
 
Not sure if I will get a chance to do any running tomorrow so I will upload my best times so far remembering the replays this week just in case. Cars were quite a handful but really good fun to drive and it only made it feel so much more rewarding than usual when you finaly managed to get a good lap without any major errors especially with the YellowBird. Great choice of cars easyasashii:tup:.


CTR2 1'35.060


CTR 1'37.667

Total 3'12.727 Great job getting your combined time under 3'10 Dan360:bowdown:

Thanks for the kind words guys!

This week was a great challenge. It is the first time that I didn't use TCS, as I use it regularly. The Yellow Bird was very hard to handle, as seen in the Nurburgring vid (massive respect to the driver), and the CTR2 has massive understeer. Luckily I have overcome both problems. And thanks to easyasahii for this amazing challenge!

RUF CTR 'Yellow Bird' - 1'35.866

I tried to best Dan's times last night, but was simply unable to do so - though I did manage to improve my time with the CTR2 by about a tenth of a second. Challenging event this week... and I loved every minute of it!


CTR: 1'36.534

Man I had a blast trying to get the CTR under control. I had totally forgotten how rewarding it is to see how you improve over the laps. Hope I can be a little more competitive in the next challenge.

This week, Dan was the man with the master plan and a killer tan who ran with his pimped out van! Congratulations, Dan... you were very fast this week (more than 1 1/2 seconds faster than your closest competitor). Easyasashii narrowly missed grabbing second place all for himself with a great run under 3'11. Good job guys!

This challenge was special as we were able to celebrate the return of an old friend and racer, pvr77. Welcome back to the WTAC!

Overall, Pitch (idled this week) still retains the top spot with 29 points, but his grasp on the lead is tenuous at best. Why? Well, because Dan360 and easyasashii both are tied with 28 points and charging hard for first place. Sylar is in a tie for 4th overall and Jochemvanberkel is only two points behind Lion-Face (our multiple cup winner) and likely to pass him next week for 7th.
