This is quite a fun car when you get used to it. Am using the Penso tune, thanks for that @Johnnypenso
Also, there's a bump in the penultimate corner exit and it can go wrong.
Very wrong.
I've run about 10-12 laps and every time I'm doing well, for me, I do something and screw it up. My best registered time, thus far, is: 1:47.785... BTW, all of a sudden I can't take screenshots of the New Personal Best screen by pressing F8. What's up with that?

What Sureboss said, or use a third party overclocking/recording/measuring tool like Afterburner or Precision X. Also, could it be that you have software running in the background that uses the same key and overrides AC?BTW, all of a sudden I can't take screenshots of the New Personal Best screen by pressing F8.

Hmm...I'll have to check and see if I have anything else running that might have taken control of F8. I don't think so, off the top of my head, but you never know. Thanks for the suggestion! I've just been pressing Print Screen and then pasting into Photoshop the last couple of times that F8 didn't work for me.What Sureboss said, or use a third party overclocking/recording/measuring tool like Afterburner or Precision X.

You might as well run with damage on, looks like others are going by RSR.Is everyone running with damage on or off? I don't want to post a time with it off if everyone is keeping it on.
I have damage on all the time but the OP says you can set it any way you like. If I go with RSR Live Timing or something similar next time around I'll be able to specify but this time it's open.Is everyone running with damage on or off?

Had a go with this a couple of nights ago. Liked it so much I made a video:
I agree. Based on the entrants in the previous rounds, I am clearly one of the slowest drivers who has participated. Now, once again I am several seconds off the pace, but I wouldn't say that I find the car particularly scary to drive. I'm just finding it difficult to put together a lap where I don't make a BIG mistake. Usually my mistakes involve too much throttle. Either I'm bombing into corners with too much speed, or I mash the throttle on corner exit and get the car all out of shape. Still, I think there are much scary cars you could have picked. I'm sure you will, in future rounds.Looks like this combination is scaring off a few people. If you haven't tried it yet, give it a spin, don't be intimidated by this car, especially with the tune I posted. It carries big slip angles quite easily and it's quite controllable with the throttle.
I don't know if it was the combination of SLS and Zandavoort, or just one of the two, but I did not enjoy driving that round at all. I really like the look of the SLS...I always have. Yet, for some reason, I had a very difficult time getting that car to perform.i enjoyed the car more than I thought I would. It's a good combo, I prefer the car to the SLS.
Good to hear:tup:👍 Did you try my tune? It really stabilizes the car and makes it easier to drive hard. It's worth a few laps to try it out. The gears are a bit taller than they need to be and that helps to get the power down. If you are tuning and struggling to get the power down, stretch the gears out a bit, add 10-15 kms to second and third gear so you can exit the corners before the power curve really peaks. It's often faster around the track that way anyway. Glad you are sticking around though, I thought we had lost you after the first roundI agree.

There are some very impressive times submitted thus far. I hope that I give this round some more effort. I know that I can knock time off of my submitted time. No, I will not find myself sneaking up on you, Saidur_Ali or Aderrrm, but I'm okay with that. I just want to be able to say "I submitted the best time that I could, for where my skill level is currently at."
I didn't submit for a couple of rounds already because I didn't put in much effort and my lap times reflected it greatly. I'm not embarrassed to come in last place each round. It is what it is. I'm sure, in time, I will improve. But, I do get upset with myself if I'm not concentrating and giving it my best.
I'm not scared off, I loved it (stock) in the 1hr I spent earlier this week. 👍 But it was a 1:48.3 and I knew that there was 1 or 2 sec out there, and I guess I like to put up a good first effort. Will definitely make some more time and try out your tune.Looks like this combination is scaring off a few people
I think I'll have to give your tune a go then.Did you try my tune? It really stabilizes the car and makes it easier to drive hard.
Getting some hardware issues, latest driver from Nvidia causes my 980ti to freeze up after a couple laps. Here's the best I could do so far:
