Boy racer.

I know, I really should grow up now i'm 31! I've always wanted a rear wheel drive car and to be fair they're a good motor for sub 10K imo.

Anyway as soon as i get GT6 I can do some testing if you need any help. I hear they've turned down the crazy draft which is a massive plus.

No hanc no need to grow up id love to still be a boy racer at 60.

@ Joe or anyone else for that matter im finding the after market wheels slightly quicker/better than the stock wheels anyone else finding the same.? Its making a right arse of my testing efforts since not all cars can cater for the same size wheel.

+1 Stu hick!

After market wheels make all wheels the same width, which basically means that most RWD cars become more oversteery as they usually have wider rear wheels as stock. It's possible that it can make some RWD's faster, but it likely would have been an understeering car before-hand.


Has no effect on FWD and 4WD's.

 

[syjones1]

Santa's been ! The grind has started. 1st few races done. National B acquired. Kettle on.
Do the graphics look any better? I'm not sure. Onwards we go !
Happy Christmas guys.

 

[V8-Johnboy]

Needed a new one and could not think what do put in. That was over 5years ago just before my 8 laps round Daytona 👍

 

[KingSakery]

Nice compilation so far
Stang is jumping into my mind directly

For the Tire/Rim thing: If I stay in the same size I don´t see and feel a difference. Only when I +1 or +2 the rims I see and feel a difference.
Either we force everybody do change to +1 for example(or +2 or just the stock size rimchange) or keep the stock rims => everybody has same basis me think

Think Bugatti Veyron and any 4WD Lambo for starters...

Im just gonna try and balance them with the after market wheels on offer King dont really fancy spot checking all them wheels. Btw that Corvette you requested will probably be for another time.

 

[V8-Johnboy]

Mustang isn't really up to it King and will probably be replaced. Camaro SS10 possibly.

Edit: Possibly not

Well, day 2. I'm international B and 1.7 mill in me skyrocket.
Things I like:
Navigating the menus is SO much quicker.
The driving physics/dynamics are much improved.
Drivings fun again ! Which is what it's all about.
Me and my Clio sport taking on all comers !

Which brings me on to things I don't like:
The AI makes me want to punch myself in the face. If I had a pound for every time I've hit an AI up the trumpet...
All the arcadee embellishments/graphics are sooooo dated. Like being back on the ole mega drive. I think a European design team would of come up with something much more modern and in keeping with the arse-thetics of the village.

But still, I'm happy !
