Whst I have done?????? I didn't join the race for 2 weeks!! First week I slept before the race as I was tired and the second week I thought that no one could do a race that day and the fact I bought 3 new ps4 games I went to play them instead. Sorry if I joined the club without even doing anything. Hopefully I'll join today.

Sorry Patrick I'm not ignoring you. I haven't turned my PS3 on for awhile. But when I do... 👍

Translated lyrics (http://www.aboutgerman.net/AGNlessons/agn_raabe01e.htm)

Not a soul calls me.*
No one shows any interest in me.
As long as I’ve lived here,
it’s almost a taunt,
my telephone has been silent.

Not a soul calls me.
No one shows any interest in me.
And I ask myself,
does anyone occasionally
ever think of me?

I find the situation highly fatal,
for the current age not normal,
when everyone only complains about
the telephone fraying their nerves.
I hardly dare go out the door,
for I’ve always suspected
that as soon as I leave the house
it rings or beeps.

However...
Not a soul calls me.
No one shows any interest in me.
As long as I’ve lived here,
it’s almost a taunt,
my telephone has been silent.

Not a soul calls me.
No one shows any interest in me.
And I ask myself,
does anyone occasionally
ever think of me?

Perhaps it’s that some
believe I’m in the land of the Danes.
Or far from here,
where the hyenas yawn.

Because...
Not a soul calls me.
No one shows any interest in me.
But it’s not my fault;
I pay the telephone bill every month.

That was no longer acceptable.
There had to be a solution!
Right away for me it was
an answering machine.
And then when I came home,
I was overcome with happiness and joy.
Merrily blinking at me, the machine said
that someone had called.

The sweet voice of a woman
betrays me and says:
“Forgive me, my dear sir,
I dialed the wrong number.”​




*The term "kein Schwein" or "keine Sau" can be translated several ways into English, but variations include: not a bloody / damn soul, nobody, no one, or not a soul. The literal meaning is 'no pig' / 'no sow,' but the words Schwein and Sau can also equate to 'bastard,' 'S.O.B.' or other insulting terms in English.
 
Not a soul calls me - I'm whistling along with it now. :P

I'm glad you mentioned the pigs because I was wondering why there were two on stage! They looked completely out of place otherwise.


I'm feeling guilty now. I'll have to fire up the PS3 later. ;)

Here's a one on SS tyres to get you started...

Setup 1

No, I still haven't turned it on yet. :sly:

Thanks a lot Paul. I already find it but thought perhaps it shouldn't be the right one due to the settings requirements:
  • Is 162HP (target -> 145HP)
  • Is 612kg (target -> 639 630kg) [EDIT] Ooops!
I suppose that adjusting the values (power and weight) for getting the target ones would affect the car behaviour at the rate of the springs, transmission and LSD settings??? Please let me know what do you think about it... :)
However I'll give it a try... 👍 :cheers:

I found this one: Setup 2 and ignored the weight settings.
I tested at Mid Field and the car behaves very good on the track. Of course I tried only with virtual opponents. For sure it should be another story with real ones...

Hope I can race with you on upcoming Thursday! :cheers:

No problem Patrick. I tend to use the Arrakis setup. I don't think the relatively small power and weight variations make that much difference and it is setup for SS tyres. If I knew what I was doing I'd probably change some settings to suit the differences (and wheel use). But I don't! :dopey:

I was thinking off running a Kei Car spin off club at some point (when I get chance/time). Specing up the Cappuccino, AutoZam and Copen to be relatively equal at around 150hp. Probably using nitro for occasional 300hp fun! :crazy:
Arrakis (@feydrautha) luckily has a tune for each one, so for evenness I've been sticking with them.

Whatever setup you use It's whatever feels good for you really.


Note. The mid range turbo gives you more PP & torque and gets used quite a lot for faster acceleration. But the high range turbo is, I find, useful on some of the faster tracks.

Oh and which ever one you use - change gear early. The power drops off quickly.

👍
