I spent a little time with another unconventional off road vehicle. This old timer has a 3.6L up it's bottom, and a suspension that I can't for the life of me find a good balance for, which you'll no doubt witness in the video. It's about as close as I can get it to smooth without adding a bunch of weight (which I still might do). Still, it makes for a pretty nutty replay. Enjoy.

I love that that race allows any car that you can put dirt tires on and is not limited to Gr.B cars. Seen some great videos this week.

I wish you could install dirt/snow tires on the race cars, but eh... I'll take what I can get. My next foray into rally builds is going to focus on small FWD cars, starting with the mk1 VW Golf, likely.
 
Looking for a good combo as a go-to for visitors new to VR, so I was experimenting...

Top of the short list is:-

High Speed Ring
Dawn
Porsche Speedster

The above seems to be a good combination of speed, ribbon simplicity, attractive lighting, general three-dimensionality in the scenery, open cockpit and not too much nausea opportunity (vertigo-inducing vertical changes).

A pleasant day of just driving with a somewhat different goal.

PS The Reprehensible Wheel ™ reward was 5,000.

Sunday gaming time, I completed the remaining 3 weekly races and the final ticket gave me a Toyota Supra VGT. Or whatever is called. Meh.

I also set a laptime in the AMG/Monza time trial and sold a bunch of cars, which brought my collection down to 189 cars. My garage is basically made up of UCD and LCD cars, next I'll start revisiting brand central in order to test and select those.

But that's a task for next weekend.
 
I got my birthday car. Mazda Vision GR.3. I'll keep as I want to put a 787B livery on it. I bought bought BMW's in the UCD with turquoise color. I bought like 4 Speed Sixes to get to 20. So I will probably create a spec series using 10 swapped and 10 non swapped. Did the WC got 100 from 5 ⭐ 🎟️
 
  • Front Wheel Drive Rally Series
I spent some time with a couple different FWD cars (mk1 VW Golf GTI, and Peugeot 205 GTI). The last few days I've been focusing on FWD rally builds (primarily SMALL vehicles) in rally stages. First off the 1983 VW Golf GTI (mk1), which turned out to be an absolute joy to drive on the rough stuff. The suspension could use a few tweaks (softening the spring rate a touch wouldn't hurt), but overall I highly recommend it. Great car!





Next the 1988 Peugeot 205 GTI, which turned out even better. Very balanced chassis. Super quick for what it is. I'm looking forward to trying it out in the snow next. Stay tuned for that.



Next will be the little Autobianchi A112. My initial testing with it was quite promising, so hopefully it handles the loose stuff well. We shall certainly see.

Logged in and dropped 6.5mill on the Ford race car for the 3 legendary car trophy.

Did 2 more of the S license tests.

Decided to have a go at the Tsukuba/Mazda MX5 1 hour endurance. It was going okay, consistently lapping at around a minute. The race ended for me around 30 minutes in.

The race allows tuning as it has a 610PP limit, and we all know that the bot cars have "creative" tuning that may or may not exceed the PP limit. That isn't what killed me.

Running in 7th place with Lopez less than a second behind approaching the final corner. The rain was coming down, nearing the top of the second section on the moisture meter. I brake because at that level of dampness I'm understeering. But those bot cars with creative tunes are just flying around as if the rain doesn't exist. Including Lopez. Where I need to brake and slow down to maintain traction, Lopez just ploughs straight in to me at full speed, punting me clear off the track.

Making an RX8 Cup grid and detuning my E30s to Spec E30 racing.
Larry Chen has been posting about his Spec E30.



Tuning between Spec E30 in the USA and here, in Australia. Keeping the 160 BHP, but leaving the weight as standard 1200kg. USA weight is 1224kg for the 318-325. Australia weight is 1150kg across the same models.
