Hi, How was the tire wear??

P.S. Are you going to watch the F1 on Speed TV, Sunday Aug 28th, (replay) at 3:30 pm.EST? Seb. Vellel is on pole, Hamilton is on P2. Things are looking a little closer between Red Bull and McLaren but Seb. has such a lead... Cheers.

You sir, are the Master of Off Topic posts!

On the subject, I'm sitting on my verandah, sipping a nice red and smoking a cigar.

I set front toe to 1 too

In real life, for good front grip, 1/8th" to 1/4" of toe out is great depending on the car, I would assume thats .13 toe out in the game but I'm not sure..... And sometimes 1/16th is good, but 1 I would say is too much.........IMO

Anyways, the escudo dirt trial car is great for reverse cyclones (no drifting, its 4wd)

Mercedes E55 AMG fully tuned with the supercharger. Lays down rubber and smokes the tires through all five of it's gears. When I decided I wanted to learn to drift I took the Cobra and SLS AMG from the arcade mode and just hammered the throttle going into the corner and watched 'em slide. I'm lucky that countersteering came natural to me.

The Stratos is deadly at the rear, very hard to keep the thing stable.

Hi, did you mean "front toe -0.1" not 1?? The Red Bull X1 only has a front toe angle of -0.5 and that's a negative value. "+1" seems a lot. The rear toe angle I usually set to +0.2 or maybe a bit higher.

Nope I meant 1. I use it to really loosen up my NASCAR at Indy.

Uhhhhhhh....... There is something completely wrong with the game then, 1/4" let alone 1" (approx. For game measurements?) toe in will make a car push (understeer) like you wouldn't believe, and it's scary.......not the scariest thing I've ever done........ But scary nonetheless looking straight at a wall with the gap closing in 1/2 a second....... Or if you try to pass someone. But loose is just not going to happen without rear brake being to strong.

Its most likely a glitch, not something I would have thought of trying to make it loose because the right front is basically trying to tuck under the car, sliding up

It's exhausting to hold the car in steady leash especially when wearing comfort tyres, easily goes outta control.
