It's better than the fights from S2.

Anyone know if the DP's can take Eau Rouge flat out?
 
Most likely but I haven't lapped Spa yet.
 
Not going to be here for Spa, on Thursday I'm going on a week vacation. So I haven't been testing for Spa.

Anyway the S2 fights you seem to be mentioning a probably nowhere near the comments on a certain Youtube video.
 
I have a love/hate relationship with Spa right now… I always find a way to wash out and hit something LoL but I love the layout to the point where I wouldn't mind throwing some dirt on it, build some jumps, and convert it to a MX track :D

Hopefully so. Group c could.
 
Remember these have; Less DF, RMs not RS tyres, more power and more weight. Even so I think flat will be fine just not like group-Cs where it was a non corner.

We were on RM tires last season, and I think I was good to go flat out in testing, I just can't remember.
 
As long as you're fine about taking a really wide swing at the base of Eau Rouge, I can take it flat out in a GT car.

I was flat out on mediums last year with Group C. The only difference is front df from last season. It might take some white knuckle driving like you said opposed to a slight bend to the Group C cars.

At least you have front downforce....
 
Now on worn tires and/or when you're following close behind someone, you might have to slow down a bit.
 
Eau Ridge scares me D: lol the life of a rookie driver lol

So, does anyone fancy a little knock around in some Opel/Vauxhall VX220 Turbo's in my lounge?

Edit: Scratch that, I'm going to watch some TV and drink some tea.

PolarBear did you get my message? JW. By the way I might be able to drive at Spa this weekend. Not sure yet however.

On here. PM relaying exactly what I told the president of MotoStar... Just so you know what I got you into 👍
 
If anyone is interested in a little practise room in the next 10-15 minutes. I'll open one as I wanna have a little practise but don't wanna be alone.
 
No one wants to be alone :(.

If I remeber correctly, I think I got a 2.10.7xx at Spa. Ran with the same tune I had from Tokyo.

I wish I could run with you guys this weekend. I may have to practice with the ds3 and just suck it up for one race.
 
Tomorrow I'm off of a weekly vacation so I won't be racing at Spa.

Any more S5 Teasers'.
 
Providing it doesn't rain i hope I can do well here. I've always loved driving around spa.

You won last season! If it rains the Audis will have to fight themselves. Hopefully it's an exciting race!

Only because of the 4 wheel drive! Which is why I hope this time it'll be dry ;)
 
Shame I'll be missing SPA then I'm going to race at Hell (Monaco).
 
I'm happy with my current pace at the moment. FH and I ran some laps at Spa last night, and the cars seem pretty even, with one exception. I think low 2:24's are the times to get in GT, but with the FH blowing a 2:23.669 in the Audi.

Polar, how strict are you going to be on the GT guys with regards to the crest of Eau Rouge? Getting the right line, even with a bit of lift off the throttle, takes a little bit of tuning and front downforce. You've got to be bats**t crazy to not lift and still manage two wheels at the left curb.
