I'm really not fussed Silver, you guys can vote and run it on strong. I just prefer more realistic racing. The weak draft is more than enough,I mean you can come from five car lengths back on Suzuka's main straight and still pass into the first corner. What mote do you need? Strong is more like bumpercar mania. It takes no skill to win it just depends on where you find yourself coming out the last bend. Pure luck!
 
I have to agree with Canu, it's more of luck how u cross the line at the finish when it's on strong, take Autumn ring for example, those that were quicker would not gain places, reverse grid would be a balls up, increased bunching may cause more accidents, it is quite easy to sit in the slipstream possibly saving tyres while the guy in front works his butt off and lap times probably will be slower due to all the door scrapping. It's more realistic on weak and more rewarding, go off the driving line and u pay but on strong u get pulled all the way from around a second back.
 
Weak...Weak...Weak...Weak...Weak...Weak...Weak...Weak...Weak...Weak...

Gotta be weak, all those that spend time perfecting set up and putting in practice get all their efforts smashed out the window.

Trust me, this is going to be a really close series with it on weak, you will see now at Suzuka, we will be running same times as there is no real advantage on the track anywhere. Same for Rome and the rest.

Autumn Ring had lag issues and a few guys getting used to the format......its game on now.

I don't think it's fair I should have 0 points when I couldn't make the first race nor knew it was occurring. Can't I have a DNS or something?

Also, not sure if I'll make any of the races in this series, so I'd like to cancel my entry into this series. :(

Other than that, iJigg very nice leaderboard you made there. :)

I will also gladly leave if there's arcade draft. I have chosen to boycott every single event with that on, and will do it here if necessary.

personally I like the weak draft better. But you have to be kidding me with this kind of thing, its only a video game.

I don't care if it's a game, I'm in here to earn success, but everything goes out of the window if I get arcade drafted and lose only because of that.

Dont be that serious Carbon. Its only a game. The success in live is in the actions you take. We dont always agree on stuff because we are all different individuals. You have to say what you like or think, but forcing it onto others with things like boycottig or quitting the championship has got nothing to do with success. There will be a decision on this matter and only than the success can follow depending on your results of your actions. Hopefully your action will be to try and win the championship
 
I need help!!

Does anyone else in the series race with a steering wheel?
If so, how the hell do you stop your tires from smoking even on a gentle corner. My tires smoke and smoke and smoke on every single corner I take.

Even with driver aids off, Force-Feedback off and power steering off, it still smokes. It smokes even worse with aids on. If I go slower it still smokes but then I wont be on the pace at all.

Please help as it ruining my tires so quick and been struggling with this since the Rising Sun Cup.

BTW I'm using the Logitech DFGT - the official GT wheel
 
@Onemanriot

You have to be on the wrong tires , that's my only guess. Make sure your on racing soft.

I'm always on racing soft Skeng...
Doesnt matter which tires I'm on. It will smoke...
 
I already told that I don't care if it's a game or not. I only accept to play it if the rules are what they are, I've suffered way too much only because of the arcade draft.

Referring to the lupos (front wheel drive)

I don't race with a wheel, but I am trying to think of what could cause this, what comes to mind is maybe your turning circle is too great, meaning too much of an angle, so when cornering the front wheels are just turning to far and when adding power you may be burning rubber without you actually feeling it.

I don't know if there is a setting to adjust how much turning sensitivity you can run. Maybe this could be something to look into.

Hi Driver

Nah its not the angle. I can hit the apex on almost every corner going out wide and straighten before the accelerating but even so the tires still light up. Even if I leave the accelerator and just let the car coast into the corner it still smokes. Doesn't matter which car it is it all does the same...

Thing is, if I let the wheel straighten itself when coming out of a corner(Like in a real car) it still smokes. Even trying to manually straighten it, it still does the same but little less but means I cant get on the power sooner.

The other eve Homes, Silver, Byo and myself were doing a few runs and everyone could see at every corner the tires were smoking even with different suspension settings etc...

Also for the wheel there is not turning sensitivity setting.. only how much force feedback (vibrations, grip, etc) can be felt through the wheel..
 
@onemanriot

Possibly could be an lsd issue , your lsd might be way too aggressive.

It could either be the torque/accel or could even be the decel.

I would play with the lsd try it at default see if it happens or not and adjust it from there .
 
Jeez, I leave you guys alone for 2 weeks and look what happens. I had to buy a new ps. So from tonight I have a 320 gig one, booyah. My old one took 8 hours to do a restore, this new one did it in 3 minutes. It took 15 minutes to rebuild the database, so my old one was completely poked. See ya online later

No offense but this kind of thing is just over the top. Im guessing you havnt suffered at all becuase of the arcade draft, at most you have only lost a video game race. If that's your idea of suffering then I wish I had your problems.
