CRAP a'Corsa ClubPS4

[hobbsy]

Ok, so after my quick flit across the water and having further test driven the Porsche... (It may have actually been a golf!) I can quite comfortably say, I would not get on with it when driven hard. Sitting on the wrong side of the car, just does not suit my driving style...

I would be missing those Apex's and trying to change gear with the door handle, it would be a mess!

So, it's safe to say the mighty Brit, is the car for me. This is not reflected however in the sub standard lap time entered below
I blame the car as a whole being a distraction

See you at the next one.

After I posted my time in the Porsche, I went out and tried all three cars. Default set ups. 3 laps max.

For me, the McLaren >Ferrari>Porsche. All are fun as heck to drive. But, I like, and know how to drive RWD cars much better than AWD. Even with default settings I beat my Porsche time buy a second in the McLaren.

Yes @Boston77 when i tested the cars quickly for the event, i found the Porsche the most planted (And most computerised and a bit "numb" feeling) The Mclaren the most stable, and LaFerrari the most lively and "on edge".

Here's the results from this week:

1 @HammyMansell 1:46:554

2 @Boston77 1:49:653

3 @SpaceBreed 1:50:392

4 @hobbsy 1:51:321

Ahh sorry Hammy, hope you reeling better now.
You don't have a nurse to see you well?
Maybe this one might be of help

Sadly I had my eye set more on these so the clutch matched on the T3PA but there were no set that had a big brake plate.

So went for the set with just big brake plate to help get around the playseat central bar and the long accelerator seems more ergonomic.

That and they seem to tie in better with the Alcantara set. Even though the Ferrari 599xx Evo's brake pedal is even wider.

[nosoks]

I turned the boost down from Hammy's 80% to 70% seemed a bit better in the twisty bits and I shaved a 10th which I promptly forgot to save

 

[SpaceBreed]

Well done everyone who participated, i am still recovering from the hurt i received from the C9, what's next?
Hope it is easy going especially since it is Christmas week and my birthday soon.
