BMW 330/Ford Focus/Audi S3/Honda Civic Type R '08

These four cars are already equal in performance, so we give them special status :P ...they'll be joined by 3 or 4 other cars for Season 3.

Incidentally folks, we need to decide whether to stick with the Audi S3, or use the Audi S4 ('03 model), although the S4 may be a bit too fast.
 

You made me spend money on a SEAT! You sneaky, sneaky person! :dopey: :dunce:


I'm also a bit sleepy. Decided to stay up all night, again, to try to get back on a normal schedule. But, I'm not awake enough for all of your plucky, sly, British remarks, aimed at teasing me. Is it because I'm Canadian?

Canadian? I thought you're german? So you'll be joining us tomorrow right?

Yes. And, though my heritage is German, and my good looks are German, I'm technically Canadian. I even prefer speaking German, over English, though I also prefer French over English.

:lol: oh ok...
 
Ok please PM me when and where it happened. Instead of commenting here which makes it easy to lose track of please PM me in the future :)



Welcome mate. Good to see a real life Pro here. Also, AVOID ALFA, and VECTRA. They are 2-3 secs off the pace in every track. Voiced my concern to the respective drivers and so did others but they went and chose it anyway. You may drive it if you want but driving it will be a bad advertisment for the series....Just wanna avoid depressed and disappointed drivers.



Going over white line is ok since you are lengthening the track and therefore no advantage gained. But the last corner (not including the banking) atleast 2 wheels on rumble.



:)

I asked after r1 in the lobby and on the forum immediatly. Nevermind i guess it,s too late now.

Btw we sticked to vecvtra because we didnt wanto leave captain alone (but he retired :P ) and because team alfa didn't seem like retiring too. We felt it like a sportsman honour to keep up with our slower friends :D

I tried the alfa and in non straightline tracks is very good. I think big boss had no tune
 
The best I can manage with the Alfa is 1:44.8.

I don't think that it's the specs.. Not really. But, anyone got any better suggestions?

You cant expect to post in lobby and expect stewards to remember, especially when theres race 2 to think about. I will look into it if you want to tell me about it. The difference with resolved incidents are that the drivers PM'd me or geeky. Dont want you to feel picked on.

305bhp 1200kg. All upgrades possible. You're the tuning guru, surely you can come up with something to break it into the 1:41's. :P
 
Yeah. It has the worst understeer... I've done everything. The rear is twice as stiff as the front. -3.5 degrees of rear camber. -0.25 toe all around... What else can I do, without destroying the car?

Driving a tank aye? Also, remember to get some sleep before tomorrows races....:lol:
 
What model are you using?

The '02 147 GTA and the '02 147 2.0 Twin Spark are both pretty balanced and quick to me. The '06 Premium 147 Twin Spark is rubbish though.
 
Looking forward to tommorow's races, my laptimes have dropped off a bit but I'm more of a racer than a qualifier anyway ;)

I've released a statement about my retirement...

"I definitely probably might not be retiring at the beginning or end of season 2, 3 or 4, but I don't like committing to anything. If I'm not racing then I'll still be loitering around on the forums anyway"
 
Right. Okay. I'm back in the Alfa. Kandy, you scary person, you! :sly:

OK, good to have you :D

I understand :indiff: so there is still hope :sly:
 
Ive only tested a few cars so i can only vote out of the ones ive tested , just trying to be fair.

Mazda
VW Golf
 
@Karsten, I don't think having an extra stop will be a problem, IIRC the rules are we'll only need one stop within the pit window :)

Oh btw anyone care to lease me their FF setup? The current setup is only good for high 1:44's and I'm 99% certain it's the setups fault :lol:
