gtpanozHow will the NASCAR Motegi race be run? Stock setups or the custom use we done during the oval races this season?
I seen people hitting the 28 sec range with a great setup but most likely killing the tires. Best I have done is around high 29s if I get a great lap.
With default tune at 808 HP on mediums we were in the 31s. The racing at that time block was good and we had a lots of side by side racing. We worry that allowing setups and getting down into the 28s may make the racing bad like it has been at indy of recently.
I say we keep it default tuned, biggest reason in past we allowed tuning was basically to tune the tranny and not redline with all the draft around indy and daytona. Tire wear is could still be discussed as you as a driver would be soley responsible in how ur tires look. I easily was able to go 10 laps on mediums, could of gone more, by not redding my tires in the corners. Although it was very easy to be at the borderline of turning em red or not. I see people pushing their cars a ton cuz tire wear is off, so everyone will have to drive right and not ruin others races.
Running on Racing Hards could be a way that keep the tires going for a longer period.I agree with the default tuning. Seemed to result in some good side by side racing between you, king and myself. The wear is definitely debatable. I like having it where you must conserve your tires other wise people will drive way too hard and 10 was definitely do able. But I feel that we would still be pitting a lot and make take away from the overall fun of the oval. Wear or no wear I think that one pit stop should be mandatory either way though. Just my opinion
Atleast we have a while before we get to that oval race so we have plenty of time to figure it out

KingBestJrLooking forward to this series next year a lot of different cars and tracks should be interesting.
I'm in, really like the no tuning thing, even if you bang the limiter here and there. #80 please.
Thanks
some HP on cars will be lowered from defualt, prohibited tuning your still allowed to adjust power limiter on engine, we'll set an HP to where we'll use all the gears up and not ground out the engine even with drafting.
That works, sounds good. I guess changing oil is ok since power may be limited equaling stuff out.

We are almost a week away guys so make sure you have your RX7's ready for Indy
