Hi everyone, this is kind of a rant and complaint about the cloi, especially as people are using it on 550pp suzuka RWD with racing tyres on the back. I myself am using a NSX 02 with S3 tyres and am enjoying tinkering with the set up to get a more confidant and direct feel from the car (its a very tail happy car out of the box).
Anyway I've got my lap times down to 2:18:3xx and I'm quite happy about that. But the problem is when I'm racing there it is usually against a bunch of people in the Clio with racing tyres on the back. And while they are not as fast in the straights they are supreme around the corners, due to the car, and are always close enough to slipstream and then side-ram or rear-ram me off the road.
One french guy rammed into the back of me and he came off the worst for it (even though he was in a Clio) and then he cought up again and side-rammed me aff the road. After the race he sent me a message calling me an idiot because I didn't get out of his way.
So I explained to him the concept of the skill of overtaking and defending from overtaking (basic racing 101). He rather unsurprisingly disagreed and gave some colourful abuse.
Is anyone else finding the Clio is, to an extent, cholking the event, or is it I'm just too slow?
Any thoughts?
