I intended the S3 cars to be based on the new BTCC NGTC regs, 300hp, 1250kg. Now I may begin working backwards, after all TOCA was set up as a tribute to the Super Touring years...

Well, Akmuq, I tried.

Your turn! :D
 
That spoiler looked stupid on the Volvo anyhow...
 
Getting to work nice and early on the artwork as well this time, as there will be lots for discussion. Each car will be tested across multiple tracks in the same configuration.

Hehe, stintwork to persuade Furi, that'll do pig, that'll do...


Anyway, Furi, I just don't like the idea of running in a race where there is no point in throttle control, as that is way to predictable, an pressuring people is pointless as they won't understeer off, with racing tyres if you out-brake yourself, you don't lose any time, like I proved at a pre-season test when I completely balls'd up trying a different approach, it should have been race over, but I kept it on track and made the overtake stick.

With the Suzuki Swift, you can make mistakes on your own, the margin for error is a lot more realistic and the level of grip changes from lap to lap.

Also, different techniques can be used in the Swifts and they vary from track to track. I drove a completely different style at Madrid then I did at Autumn Ring, and have an idea how I'll be driving at Eiger tomorrow if my GT5 is working.

RM's did make them maybe too easy to drive...

Huh, akmuq won 5 races last season, so something must have happened to the stats... :D
 
I'm still waiting for Tank Car and SambaBus that Furi agreed to add to the series, wait for your turn please.

Ok.

I think he should add a Mazda MX-5 though. That would be great.

He's trying to forget how he let me go.:D


But Yeah Furi it should be 6 wins for the Volvo.👍
 
Fixed. From raw stats the Volvo is a torque monster but certainly is a little beast.
 
No guesses as to what car?

We were supposed to guess? :sly:

I guess it's... an American Standardbred.

Anyway, anyone interested in a DBC seat for the re-start of Season 4 (which I at least want rather than cancelling the whole thing), PM me please. ^^
