[Strawman Andy]

it's the LFC one,

Have to say this is a horrible car to drive and I hate the 7 speed :/

Round the nurb it's not brilliant, but round indy it was a good drive really suited it.👍

Yes they do yoy have to do max speed first, 124 then make final ratio max then change it


Room is open

Tried that, but none of the ratios go down low enough to your figures

JB wins again, both races! 4/4 wins can anyone stop those pink cars?congrats to bountyfuzza on his podium too.

Any incidents pm me.👍

Thanks for all those that showed, next week should be 13 cars.

 

[Gazza123]

Nice going by the pink cars again your pretty fast, tonight was a disaster setup compromised my race big time which sucked couldn't even keep up with Andy..

On a plus note testing went well today at Mallory, driver was well pleased i managed to take like 4 seconds off hes lap times

Suddenly its bad to be slower than me -_- I've beaten you before so.

Also found my engine was losing power, ended up running 538bhp for race 2 which would explain why I suddenly struggled

Yeah your crap

No but you know we are very evenly matched usually

 

[Strawman Andy]

No but you know we are very evenly matched usually

Thanks. yeah we are pretty close, your Rome times where close to mine so I think you'll be better at Rome.maybe nurb a bad track for you?

 

[bountyfuzza]

Great racing today. I enjoyed every minute of it.

Possibly could be that, think was more just have the setup right to compete for podium had terrible under steer, if you had it like I did on a real track you'd be in trouble alright lol

 

[V8-Johnboy]

Dont know Rome very well at all but in one of these jeeezz

Glad you did and congrats on the podium.👍

I had a lot of understeer issues. Go to Rome and car is perfect. Weird but just made best of what I could

Dont know Rome very well at all but in one of these jeeezz

Amazingly the car suited Rome really well.
Was miles better at Rome than the Nurb. No understeer, car suddenly felt balanced again. Its a good fun track, bit like Tokyo only shorter lap.

 

[bountyfuzza]

thanks strawman

Not really sure how I felt about that race tbh, was expecting to be slow so not to worried about that but I really didn't enjoy the car at all. Not sure what it is but it just seems crap! Not a fan of Nurb tho anyway as I just can't seem to get the line right.

Not sure of the set up of the races either, 2 at the same laps felt abit boring, no pits or no sprint/feature race set up.

Anyway roll on Rome :/

Car was a bit unbalanced at Nurb so think most people struggled a bit with understeer.
I can understand how two races the same seem boring. But I wanted to keep it simple for now, but I was thinking of adding a pitstop or something in the future.

As for car it is better at Rome, ive found the understeer has gone and its back to being balanced again

You also werent slow considering we have had more time in the car so you did a good job.👍

Yeah couple things being looked at

 

[priesty_lfc]

Around 3s of the pace is slow! Haha Nurb is just somewhere I struggle at, I find sector 1 pretty difficult and lost most of my time in that sector alone.

I'm free ever Wednesday so I won't be leaving, ill just practice more and try and watch the lines you guys run to see where I'm losing time. No biggie!

Well I saw when practicing you only went into 7th gear, unless you changed ratios before races you lost a bit of time in speed.

Only 3 seconds of isnt bad, plus if its a bad track then maybe at a good track you'll be right up at the top? 💡

Any room?

Yes there is.👍

What car number, colour and team name please.

Once you get to learn it the car is very fun and very fast the gearing is what you really have to work , lots of shifting .

Havent looked at any replays since the start of the season but i wonder how everyone sets their gearboxes
