I finally got some quality time with the game after the recent patch, and wow, it has transformed the game for me. Before the patch, I was struggling to get consistent laps out of any car on any circuit and starting to doubt my driving abilities to the point of not bothering to drive any more.
Now, I can lap consistently, change my style to suit the car and have the car respond in kind. I still doubt my driving abilities but that is because I can now see where I am slow and KNOW it is me that is slow - now I drive to improve !!!!
It is rather impressive that you have managed to model a game where you can see the effect of changing a style of driving and the car reacts in accordance - like truly amazing. I go in too hot and lunch the fronts on one lap with catastrophic understeer the result - the next I ease in and power out and pow!! LAPTIME! No set up change, just a change in dynamic loading of the car on turn in. Really amazing!
You really have done a great job on this, SMS, truly epic. Cars, circuits, driving, fun, graphics, performance...sounds (most of them ) - awesome!
Thank you from this "middle aged delighted to have a rebirth of racing pleasure" guy
