Yay, Dragon ZX.
Time for my Derwent Green Z32 to have some love.
Thanks, ma.

So I took the Dragon ZX to a shakedown at Spa Francorchamps...
Why do you say that it's flawed and temperamental? XD
It clocked nearly 280 km/h at the straight after Eau Rouge, so top speed and acceleration is decent for a track car. I felt some understeer at corners like Eau Rouge and "the Uzi's buttstock", but seriously, I like how it handles. It's pretty balanced because of it's slight understeer, and when you prod the throttle a little too early, it kicks out the tail, something us maniacs would love.
Plus, the lack of straight-cut gears seem to be an advantage instead of a disadvantage. Yeah, the car can benefit more from a fully customizable transmission, but it's still beast as it is.
I made a 2:24.927 lap, but there's some room for improvement there. It would beat a GT-R GT500 Stealth and if someone's better than me, it would match the Shmo LP640's racing hard tire lap time of 2:20.407. After all, it's just a 2-lap shakedown
I like this tune, though it can be a little looser and nimbler. Tested on offline physics. Manual, SRF off, ABS 1.
