@Snake Nope the engine used in the Cuore/Mira and Copens is a 4cylinder.👍👍
As for wheelspin I'm not getting any with my FC transmission and LSD.:D

Also just for the record I used a 192hp Cuore with the High RPM Turbo to win the original Supercar seasonal race on the custom Eifel track against all the Ferrari's and such...granted it was on RS tires for that but considering the power difference...:crazy: Man I miss that seasonal and track.:odd:

I'm only getting wheelspin in 2nd @7-8.5k rpm and 3rd at 7.5-10k rpm. Only on uphills though.
 
@JC which turbo are you using?

Also we should get in a lobby together at some point...though I seriously need to learn the track better...current times are embarising due to my poor driving and not knowing the course...:drool:
 
High RPM. I'll delete someone and add you. Need to get 4 hours of sleep for work. I'll be on tomorrow 9 est ish. Btw, it's a prototype, but if you're on my friends list, the mira is on share. Not satisfied with the lsd yet.
 
I'll be home within an hour or two. I'm gonna be hosting a lobby or lounge. Anyone can add me if your wish, I may have room for a handful. I gonna finalize the FD's gears and post that setup as well as tune the EG for the next T200 round.

Being as I work at a night club, there's no set time for me to leave. Even though I'm off the clock, I'm still chillin here with people drinking and smoking, having a blast!
 
So... Are these correct?

Also, a note for Tak.

If ever you can't find a standard car in the UCD/don't know the setup to some cars, feel free to ask. 👍 I'll be free for the whole next week.
 
Eh, Mat, mind doing me the enormous favour of passing my car around to Tak? I'm still too lazy to post my tune…especially since it's so similar to a previous tune of mine.

Nah, it's cool. :lol:

Can't wait to see what you manage with my Dragon. Speed wise it should fair well but kinda guessing it's going to take a beating in the handling and drivers feel portions of the test process!:lol::crazy:
 
ugabugaz
Can't be worse than the Yellowbird :dunce:

You had to deal with oversteer which if you managed to reign it in could be used to the drivers advantage...
I had massive understeer to try and get rid of so the car could actually negotiate the hairpins at something above 5mph.:crazy: Think I managed to get rid of the worst of it but car still has a little bit on corner entry and a tendency to push wide if the throttle is hammered to soon on corner exIt.:drool:
 
On the other hand, I've got exactly...no issues with my car, because I was sensible with the power in my car. :p
 
XDesperado67
Yeah but your also slow and dull!:crazy::lol:

My James May approach of minimalism outweighs (actually…that's the wrong term, isn't it? I'm at 1250kg, you're at 1.5+tonnes :lol:) your Clarkson approach of a big hammer and unrefined POWERRR and shouty noise. :p

And you remember my Impreza from the Japanese Celebration shootout? Fantastic to drive, just no real top end, right? Well guess what you're up against, on a track where top end doesn't quite matter. :p

Who says top end doesn't matter?:odd:
If top end didn't matter I would have used something like a maxed out Audi S3 or TT instead of my "plus size" Dragon!:crazy:

Fine, correction- top end (as in top speed) doesn't matter on a course where you can't go beyond 160mph without flying off the track. :p And though I'm in no doubt that the RS6 will very well beat anything we can throw at it in a straight line…I'm not all that certain about the corners. :lol: Mat, test nao. NAO! :lol:
 
ugabugaz
Hey, I was sensible too!
My Yellobird only has 655HP.
The maximum is somewhere north of 730HP.

Yea, it's not like having the same level of power as a Ferrari Enzo is much to shout about, right? :lol:

It's exact 730hp, I think.
 
Pretty sure the Dragon's acceleration on anything remotely resembling a straight will more than make up for time lost to your Preza in the corners.:D

I trust Mat has the skills needed to guide it round the twisties and apply that power...just sort of doubt he'll find it the most enjoyable experience doing so.

The car was meant more to put the GT-Rs on notice that they didn't hold a lock on speed, than be a fun easy drive on the Touge. You can have a very fast car that requires some skill to use or an easy to use car that's fun to drive. Getting both into one package is a bit more challenging though. Decided since this was the Max class I'd go crazy and field a real Max monster. Just think if this was season 2 the Dragon would be over 200kg lighter and really quick.:D:crazy:
 
I'm not too sure, haven't looked at the other entries' figures, but at 547hp, I might have the least powerful car in this shootout. Possibly the lightest, as well, tipping the scales barely over 1150kg with a perfect distribution of 50/50.
