Hi, did a quick search but didnt find anything so hope this thread is allowed.

I have discovered a 'bug' that allows use of racing tyres during shuffle races.

Here's how:

Host picks a change weather track from the list and chooses rain and checks the 'fixed' button.
Once the track has loaded everyone should pick their cars. (Change shuffle ratio if someone picked a car before the track changed) They will be equipped with racing rain tyres.
Once everyone has their car change the track (or vote) to a dry circuit. Players will still have racing rain tyres. These tyres will last about 5 laps of a medium length track (eg grand valley) before running out of life. If you pit during the race you will get racing hards.

There you go, thats it, pretty simple and might add a new dimension to your online fun.
Cue the repost and grammar police
 
Suppose the rain isn't fixed... Would some people be stuck on comfort tires since they entered the race sooner than those that entered during full-blown rain? Would comfort soft tires out-perform racing rain tires once the track is dry? SO MANY QUESTIONS.
 
I did two of these races in your room, and it sure was fun.

10 laps tsu ku ba and having serious effect from tyre wear last 2 laps, or 8 laps deep forest and pitting after lap 4. A slider for tyre wear would be nice, so just like the time, you could speed up tyre wear. would be great to have a 10 lap race, where you either drive to conserve tyres, or got flat out and make a pitstop.

Hope to try some more next weekend.

@BradKinder:
people who pick a car before the track gets set to fixed rain do indeed get a car on comfort softs. And Racing rains out performs comfort soft on dry tracks.

post there... we dont need 5 threads of tire wear "bug"
 
not really... he can throw his question in this pool

but now we got 2 threads about near the same

They are completely different 🤬 things!! Small_Fryz was talking about tyre degradation in an online race where they use the same cars and same setups, ADEuk is talking about a trick in shuffle mode to allow those cars to use racing tyres instead of comfort softs!! Try and not be so narrow minded next time.

Great trick ADE, I'm going to have to come in one of your rooms over the weekend and play with this. 👍
