Spa Time Trial

[Sputnik]

Hey all...

I've been trying to get in 1.55's with a Mazda 787B, but the best i could do is 1.59.2xx. I've noticed that top cars are '92 Peugeot 905 - Audi R8, Am i in a wrong car, or i just suck? I know Spa very well, but Lola's are not my passion! Any advice?

Those 2 cars are diesel-powered and have massive torque so that you can shift earlier and accelerate with less wheel spin. Any of those will work well.

not true. they're both petrol. the R10 TDi and 908 HDi are diesel

Try the Bentely Speed 8. If you get it setup right, it handles ok, and has bags of torque like the diesels do to pull you out of the tigher corners.

I got down to a '56 something, but with potential left to drop another second or so.

hello how come everyone i see gets to 220mph on the straight and i only get 205mph i also only have 645bhp when everyone else has 754bhp its annoying me man i tryed everything literally.

I'm using the 905 at Spa @916hp. I have a setup for it in the other thread if you'd like to check it out. Best time so far is 1:55.658. I also have a few other setups on there also for the Speed 8 and the Audi R8 Playstation TEAM ORECA car. Maybe those can be of help to you. Peace.

I used the Escudo dirt trials car and got it on my first go

Same problem here man.

What could we be doing wrong?

I'm not as fast as the top cars in the list.. and I have 700pp.

EDIT
Ok, you get more HorsePower if you take off the Aerodynamics and increase the Power Limiter (Engine).

I'm gonna try this out and see what happens..

Or mess around with Weight..

Try KB18's tune. It's a goodie. Cheers & thanks, KB!

Do not take away the aero. Instead, max aero and add ballast, 150kg @ +50. or whatever kg. you need to get your car at 700pp. With noe aero, the car is a disaster. I just posted my complete setup in the other TT thread. My time so far is 1:55.037 with room for improvement. The car can go flat out through that first high speed section with no problem. My top speed through there is 217-219 depending how I hit the apexes.
