A reminder of tonight's info. If we can finish around 8pm that would be great, but we'll probably over-run that slightly.
I think I'm gonna run the Peugeot at 1260 tonight to see what's what. Feel free anyone to test out the specs I proposed for those cars listed a few posts back.

yet to be fully confirmed, but my dad may be joining next BTCC series lol
Sounds great but make sure you both get ps3 hard wired, don't trust that wirless stuff.
And really don't trust your Dad when he says your be ok son
Also what happens if your Dad give you that little push off track?
Will anyone in the house be able to use there phone to record it, pls if so post it on youtube.
Got to be a good watch if that happens
Good points I think it make a good team really, if you work together.
Being a Dad myself I know we have that in built thing called I'm right, but you got lap time to prove him wrong at hand.

Depends on the track, I'd say 174 on Max Speed would be good for both tonight though. Maybe 168 slightly better, not sure. But I'll be going 174.

Sorry that I wasn't online today, missed the last two pages here.
Somehow the notifications don't seem to work for the thread.
Wasn't clever enough to take a look until now at the thread.
Next time I will be there again.

Getting the hump with the hyundai, car just seem to lose it for no reason.
Even on good setups, glad I'm not the only one finding it slow.
But I really don't think losing weight going to help it much, it can match times.
It's just when it not won't to play ball it goes in a spin of it's own.
Me and scan had a good little battle but he just pushed me a little wide and then the car did it own thing.
Then once I stopped the car I got hit by two others cars.
Nothing I could do in getting out the way, I know blue hit me.
Sorry m8 nothing I could do really, then I lost control of the car again so I parked up in a wall on lap 3 or 2 not to sure.
Apricot hill I gave up on the last lap I was just worn out trying to keep the car going fast.
I'm am thinking if a car comes with rear aero the car may need it to stable it?

The following changes are coming into force.
I think 20 was too much on the Renault. 10 is probably better.
1460 was too much for the Nissan as we saw. 1455 wasn't run at all by the looks of it.
Maaaaaybe the Citroen could lose another 10 but I'm not sure.
Hyundai needed a little more grunt I think.
The aim is to not change specs any more after this.. but I'm still open to very minor tweaks. But I'd rather look at this as concrete and stable now.
It does seem like a very delicate car, and I can see how in race trim it can be a proper handful. You're right, it does match times very well, but I can see now that there's a difference over one lap vs a race. Battling in that car must be tough.
Aero parts would be a last resort really. It could be worth trying... but not yet. I don't think it's quite as unstable as the BMW, for example.
Remember you can change car if there's space available. FF is certainly less mentally draining to drive a race; it's why I switched back.

I think it's straight line performance needed a boost.
