@bjl23 about the MGF CHALLENGE some doubts at the beginning but race-2-race is becoming very interesting for me. The car is really a surprise for me.
 
bjl23 about the MGF CHALLENGE some doubts at the beginning but race-2-race is becoming very interesting for me. The car is really a surprise for me.
When I was designing it I thought some of the races would be a bit boring in since they would be very easy to win. (like the tour of Europe races, when I did those I was just trying to drift every corner as I was so far in front).
But as we do the international A races I thought it would get a lot harder and I think some of the races will be impossible to win.

As for the car, I found you can have a lot of fun in the easy races by throwing the car around since it oversteers a lot. Tuning will become key in the harder races.
 
How are finding the MGF challenge, good, bad, fun?

Right, setup is fundamental for more difficult races as full maxed without changes the car is a "natural drifter"...
At this stage, due to my limited time, I focused just the suspension setup getting interesting benefits
 
Not had a lot of time to play recently what with work, holidays, training and life, so went with some 'easy' races in the MGF. Hoping to do some more challenges over the weekend.

NIKI LAUDA TROPHY

@Mario 8A
INVITE ME AGAIN
 
Your whishes and prayers take ( good) place and am back having more than half of my holidays sleeping every night at a hospital imitating the nurse .
Good end....... All good

No time to respond at last round and @Mario 8A and @bjl23 destroy me both.
We also find out that @RMan72 well known as Boogeyman suffers from " nostalgia " and make his holidays behind the wheel of an MG .

Glad to find you all and in good shape and as soon as my back reach the " straight " line ill try to get my blood back.
Maria will help me on this as she offered to borrow me her red nail polish to look more agresive :boggled:

Somehow i feel out of " shape " but we have lot of time and hopefully Terminator and Bruce Lee may feel my breath at their back.

Edit
At last smile come back to my face .
I was suspecting that might be on wrong tyres since needed to buy this corvete and was just trying to find my brake settings and yes i was right ,was on SH not SM .
Didn't save a vid hoping that there is room for improvement .
Am not hiding that when i read from @bjl23 ........ Just a quick go ....... I felt my legs been cut .

So no tune entry
