BST Revolution | V8-Johnboy Wins Series 9Finished

So am i right in saying that coz we use more fuel we spend more time in pits filling up?

Yep that's why I sent you that idea from Orama and Dirtynurb.

 

[raceorama123432]

Either that or you make the cars that use more fuel faster so that over a race distance they are even

 

[True-blue-8]

Actually, what you need to take into account as well is the cars that burn more fuel will set quicker lap times too, so the longer pit stop would reduce that time, if i'm making sense

I think it depends on how much time is gained with the light load and if it actually balances out.

Not overly practical or that easy to implement. Ditching the fast fuel next season will have to happen I expect although I would expect less of an issue with next seasons cars.
What Dirty says makes logical sense too so we'll just have to get on with it I spose

 

[Gedi69]

No wonder I lost soo much time to other cars in the pits, makes sence now

 

[V8-Johnboy]

Viper seems to be the worst yes.

 

[Gedi69]

Oh my fault, should have took the time to test it.

 

[V8-Johnboy]

Never crossed my mind i thought wear and fuel was the same as it was in 5. Can't be helped and like Dirty said the juicier cars will run lighter in theory so.

Me think the SC isn´t helping in the Fuel-Case either
But if you remove the Supercharger, the Viper gets segnificantly slower (atleast for me). Didn´t test the Fuel without it yet maybe i´ll give it a try.

@Gedi69 yep must be the case
At Motegi I thought man why am I so far behind ? (although me ran out of fuel I thought all where struggling).
After the Race some posted numbers where I thought: "lol I had to refill 101 liters to get to the finishline and they post 60-70 ?"

Well me didn´t actually get to the finishline either xDDD
In real life a Viper is that thirsty after 200-300km your tank is empty

Yep I make you 100% right king higher the torque higher the fuel bill. BMW's due a win.

So I could take the supercharger off the Vette and get even better fuel use?

http://community.us.playstation.com...NTENANCE-Monday-August-25th-2014/m-p/44330904 PSN down from 5:40pm monday to 12:50am tuesday morning. You'll be fine if you have signed in between today and the maintenance.

 

[V8-Johnboy]

I think you just need to have been connected to PSN at somepoint from the 20th up to when the maintenance starts. Then you should be able to sign in during maintenance for the races.

 

[V8-Johnboy]

Any points news?

 

[Gedi69]
