Why hasn't that been notified in the first post in the actual thread?

I may have to rebuild the whole car after breaking it in.

Just limit the horsepower.

Sorry for the double post

I thought I put something in there about it being the stock HP, but I'll go put it in there now. The only reason it's 446 is because that's how much it has when you've done all upgrades, and because some people will go tune their cars now they can end up with an extra 30 hp, so they will need to limit it come race time. I suggest limiting it during testing aswell so you don't fell down on horsepower when the races come

Im not taking part and all but honesly thats a pretty silly way to do it IMHO. Why not limit it to the hp the car has once fully tuned and broken in? It just seems weird the way your doing it.

Because it takes awhile to break a car in. I've done about an hours testing and it's only gained about 7 horsepower.

So? I still fail to see the problem. So it only gained 7 horsepower in an hour, Go and oil change it then see the difference.

If it means so much to you then you can drive it for a few hours and then tell me 👍

 

[Nismo34]

Im just confused as to why you are doing this way. Another thing that caught my attention, Why no body ridgity?

 

[Stavingo]

Because it's better turning stability.

On a side note, why don't you make an oil change a mandatory process? Thats how come people are ending up with more HP.

Okay, i've put all this in, and now you have to break the car in.

It makes it understeer a helluva lot more though. Cant go as fast through the corners. Keeps the racing closer.

 

[Stavingo]

Really? Interesting.

Can't stand understeer, it's a horrible feeling. We want oversteer, which is partly the reason why we chose to go with no ridigity


EDIT: Done 81 km and only gained 4 horsepower by the way. Oil change did nothing the second time round

Well, unless someone goes and plays for 24/7 they are going ot be in the same boat. After a few of the races in the championship, the cars will break in and then they will all be level. Its only the first race where there will be a difference but it wont be enough to be noticeable.

Yea I cant seem to combat the understeer in my NSX. thats probably why Im so slow.

 

[yellomello]

On IC-7 there is a dirt test and try and reverse entry the hairpin I wiil post a pic when I am at computer

LOL Cmon mate... Making excuses already? lol

I played with my suspension for awhile and I got a great setup that didn't understeer, then I got cocky and thought I could make it better, I changed all of the suspension setting and I'm back where I was when I bought the car. I wish I never touched it.

This drift car is just Porn. got really close to the wall on indy and pulled off the drift. i do plan on making a drift comp vid some day as i have heaps of footage and a capture card.

Mess with the Weight ballas. i got rid of most of my under steer messing with that. best time ive done on controler is a mid 53 seconds on tsakuba.

 

[yellomello]

I have a Matte dark blue SLS drifter

 

[BEAST260Z]

well i think im gonna setup my wheel on my computer desk and do a lap time through the capture card in the NSX. man cant wait to pay off my new 42Inch tv. cause ill have a 32Inch LCD tv for my computer screen LOL

 

[MONSTAR-1]

1.49.4xx with the NSX at GVS

It's for the championship (i think). In the championship, there will be no weight ballast changes by the way

ummm u didn't mention that on the thread man. i though all turning would of included that as its a form of turning...

There was a thread made and then changes made to it, that's why there are so many things that people are questioning me about, and complaining that it's not in the thread. I'm sorry if it wasn't there but when I remade it I forgot some things.
I'll talk to midjetv8 about it when he finishes work...

 

[BEAST260Z]

that really sucks. i got my car going really good now. now got to start all over again.

Dude, chill. I'll talk to midjetv8 when he finishes work. Originally we wanted no ballast but I'll talk to him

Um am I the only one that noticed you are midjetv8
I'm assuming he's your brother/friend and you share an account

We run the championship off this account. The real midjet is useless at doing stuff with threads, so I do that.
