Yeah the Clubsport GT4. I can get it to spin around very easily if too much power coming out of a corner. Saying that, I have the traction off... I'll usually only turn on traction control if the track is 96 - 98% grip if the car supplies it.

The Porsche 911 GT3 is lovely and oversteer-y as well. Which boggles me how that is a GT3 as it isn't as fast as the GT3 class so, whys it GT3 named?

I have TC on so probably makes a big difference. Assumed that car was designed to run with TC on. I was also eager to try a 911 GT3 then discovered it was a road car lol

 

[Orayani]

I usually turn off and despise traction control because it cuts the power on me and sometimes, not always can inadvertently put me into a slow uncontrollable spin. One thing I really detest is a stiff car in corners. Traction control does this. I love them agile with some twitch.

I thought GT3 was a race spec series not a road car with GT3 spoilers... Hence it listed as GT3 confusing me.

Massarutto has deleted a photo from Facebook, the new Kunos studios.
What is going on???

The GT3 RS, which I presume is the one you're talking about, is a heavily track prepped road car. The proper GT3 race car comes with PP3 which I don't believe console players have yet. It also included the 911 GT3 Cup, which is a full on race car based on the GT3 RS. Sometime soon we'll be getting the 911 RSR which looks very similar to the GT3 and GT3 Cup but it is a GTE class car that races at Le Mans and in the GTLM class in IMSA. Totally straightforward and not at all confusing.

 

[Orayani]

Yeah, I really know little of the names.

I think those Porsches with grunt for the GT3 race series is in Porsche pack 3. Looking forward to that. Though that road version of the GT3 has some nice deep growls. Quite a nice car to drive.

Those are pretty much the only 3 I can keep track of. When it comes to all the different flavors of the street 911 (993, 997, etc.) I'm completely lost.

It's really time, 6+ months passed, i hope we get them in next update with pp3 >_>

To be fair, it hasn't quite been five months (it will be tomorrow, in Europe).

Cmon, how can you not find that funny? Cracks me up every time. Though that's probably because i expect it and manage to pass with no contact......most of the time.

You have to tell me your trick then i think i never had a single first lap without being crashed into in all the online races i had so far

Fear the worst, stay as far away from the other cars as you can, let them passed if need be then watch them burn and proceed to chuckle to yourself as you pass.

I wish i could upload a video as i have many examples saved.

Nailed it. Don't try to fight them, it's a losing battle. The main objective for the first turn or even the first lap should be more about surviving than improving your position. Wait for them to wreck, then take the position from them.

It's easy. Do what I did. Qualified 3rd, got a terrible start and dropped to last, by the time I got to turn one it had already happened and I got a clean run through.

That bump at 0:34 though

Usually, lap 2 and 3 becomes a different race if most haven't dropped out by 4 and 5.

They were 100km/h slower than expected did brake but can't make much magic.

Said everyone in T1 and in Eau Rouge later.

No offence.

Lol! Whiplash.

We should make Turn 1 survival meme's.

Not turn 1, but this dude survived the carnage like a boss.

Your bumps were like what i had a week ago at the RBR in GT3 Karsten.....Open the door for me at turn 2 and arrivederci!!

 

[Johnnypenso]

It pays to be in the lead on the last lap...especially on the go fast turn left type tracks.

 

[lancia delta hf]

Guys, and gals. A questions, do Kunos have any plans to add sparks or car shake when you rev the engine? How about exhaust fumes when its chilly on the willy?

 

[Orayani]

Somehow I doubt it but who knows. The sparks would be extremely lovely on the Lotus 98T though.

Cannot wait to drive this on the stick.

Those guys can't even drive round in circles properly!

You think that's bad, skip to 3:25 in this video. Probably the gnarliest and most bizarre Daytona crash I've ever seen, his car just instantly goes airborn, over the pack, and straight into the fence.



Skip to 1:50 in this one to see it from the stands. I'm guessing there was a lot of soiled underwear that night.



As far as I can recall, no major injuries.

Poor fence!
Imagine if you were sitting there before and went to get a hotdog and came back and were like, 'so what did I miss?'

 

[Orayani]

Geez, every other broadcast I've seen of Nascar always made it look boring but the speed in that first video is quite frightening.

When the camera is always zooming and panning it doesn't really make you appreciate the speed of Nascar.

Some of that debris still flew into the crowd. Whoa! That hole.
