Hope everyone survived the tour to Paris ;) On to something a little more sane, I had a little trouble keeping this thing in line going down the hill into the first tunel, other then that it's a blast.

:cheers:
Erik
 
I am so giving this one a go. Though Midfield Reverse... Doesn't suit the character of the car.

Hi Gingiba, nice to see you here :) not sure what you mean about character but I'll say this; two other choices for this car where citta with min power and r1, and df rev with max power and r5, anyway you might be pleasantly surprised. 👍
 
Citta on R1s sounds tempting enough ;)

I'll run this too, though. Character, I mean that wild oversteer the Mid-engined Renaults are known for - and too sticky a tyre makes sliding them a little more difficult because of the increased snap.
 
first go @ my beloved midfield - forward and reverse - in the crazy little frog car. anyone ever seen a road version of it irl? those back wheel arches are just insane ...

23.688 - 46.073 - laptime in my msn screen :sly:

gearing standard at 260 but that might be a bit long. power might have been at -20 for all i care.

never ever lift and steer in this car - you'll be backwards before you know it. otherwise it's not as irky as the stratos like erik told me this morning by a wide margin.
 
22.180
44.237

Cool combo,Erik.

Tricky but heaps of fun.:)
 
Time submitted.

22.223
44.415

Very fun combo. :D Wish I had time to more than one session but sunny Greece is calling. :cool:

See you all next week. :D
 
Thanks for running Niels, have a great time in Greece! :) Drink some of whatever they drink over there for me mate.

:cheers:
Erik
 
Enjoy your holiday, Niels!

Bring some Metaxa for us :sly:
 
My third session, 250 topy, the last s can be taken faster than i thought :dopey: , I'm braking early for it 120mph or so, ending over 130mph.....

22.000 / 44.039

Starting the board: Steven, Sjaak, Niels, and me 👍
 
Nice combo Eric! .. and I like how you blended the Midfield track logo into your header pic 👍

Ran a few laps to get aquainted as its not as good to me as its forward namesake :P ... and it sure is make or break into the tunnel to start the lap :scared: I'm averaging about 1 in 6 attempts I can take it flat out and clean :dopey: after that the only tough part is the last turn and the braking point I guess 👍 my best save so far has .. 21.717 / 43.690
I can see lots to improve on ... namely the last double left onto the finish straight where I have a tendancy to wreck my best laps :dopey:

Cool combo still! .. Cheers :cheers:
Ron.
 
Thanks Ron :) I know going down that hill is a real bitch, but at least it's at the begining of the lap :dopey: And the rest makes up for it to me. Original plan was minimum power on r2 for this track, but thought this to be more fun.

Updated Ron 👍
 
first 9 laps: 44.9xx
I'll come back with some proper splits soon. What a fun combo :cool:

edit: 22.126 / 44.227
 
Glad to see you guys are liking it :) I'll try and get a few in soon, I wonder how much the last sector will factor in, ie the "s"....

Updating the board:
 
small update: 21.969 / 44.170

(how do you get that line out of your signature?)
 
I've been hiting the pavement hard and had a little reward, not what I was hoping for, but maybe it will still come, have had some 43.8xx only to toss the s once and the last bend once :dopey: I've got a bit more in me on this one......

21.965 / 43.969

Updating Jake and me 👍
 
Jαke;2671748
What a fun combo
unagreed :ouch:
dont have the time (skill? :yuck: ) to try & get this little bomb of a car steadily around the lovely track.
waiting for round 5.

good work erik! 👍
 
I wonder how much the last sector will factor in, ie the "s"....


I'm fairly confident that I nailed the s and the last bend :sly:

Looks like I've got a battle on my hands though, nice splits Jake 👍
 
With similair splits (43.93) I was able to nock .15 off the line :) so I got the last sector.......now, just too see if I can link it all up :dopey:
 
I've recieved a few subs already so i decided to stop running.... I did well by my standerds so 👍 to me hahahaha, I hope to have a vid of my craptastic driving up soon so you all can see me in action (no laughing aloud)

Good luck to all still going and I'll see ya all for the final.

:cheers:
Erik
 
Erik, Just returned from vacation to find my house is sold. Going to be very busy packing and moving but will attempt a couple of late nite runs.


Edit: Had a chance to run about 20 laps.

23.385
46.504

I actually like the combo. Very interesting car to drive that's for sure. Wish I had more time but, we'll give it a go later tonight.
 
Managed to do a few laps just before going to bed. I always struggle with this car, so I settled for just a decent run. Splits 22.071 / 44.061

I'll be back next week :sly:
 
Hi all :)

I'm working on the next race and will have it up soon 👍

It has been brought to my attention more then once that I missed a great rally track, so I'm asking if you all wan't to go one more round? six instead of five, it is a tight street course of course and most of you probably like it more then I. Would be fun to do, but I need input from ya'll in case some are watching the final standings and do or don't want another run to change things....... Let me know
