Yeah, I found keeping it balanced is a non-negotiable (like most MR cars). But it doesn’t like kerbs and is prone to oversteer if you get on the throttle too early.
I haven't tried the 86, but I've had the NSX top out at 252kph, GT-R at 264kph. I was finding the NSX happy to carry a good 2-3kph through the tighter corners than the GT-R, about 1-2kph more than the Viper. Viper has the legs for the straight though, topping out at 261kph for me so far!
The Viper will get to 263 down the hill after the bridge.
Imagine having that driver for your first race of the week.
As a matter of fact, he's stated that he is not from Singapore. None of the footage shown had resulted in him receiving a penalty.
I don't think having a 7:06 lap record would be enough to avoid him.
You got into one of the toughest rooms I've seen all week. Actually the one after had 6:57 on pole, doing 7:04 in race. With a 7:18 you should be competitive out of prime alien time
I was about to let you through early on then you seemed to vanish for a bit, then I got absolutely pole axed by some idiot which dropped me to last and then compounded that by missing my braking point at the end of the 2nd sector. Just a debacle all round.You got into one of the toughest rooms I've seen all week. Actually the one after had 6:57 on pole, doing 7:04 in race.

Back at this morning, some aliens are up early as well. 6:59 on pole, can't catch that. I made it to 9th, saw @Mc_Yavel who placed top 5 I think. I got bump passed at Aremberg lap one, dirty S driver, but managed to climb back up. Next race is up!
I stomped too much on the gas and spun at the start doh. It was for the better I guess, as I had 3 fast dirty drivers behind me. They crashed themselves later, one of them probably took you out with him
I started with automatic but realized I wouldn't be competitive with it. Still, I thought it would be too much to manage in a race. Finally decided to go with it, so I spent a lot of time racing against the AI and in sim time trials. I still flub shifts occasionally but it has really helped my performance (that, plus some good tips I have gotten here).
Are you flat through the second last corner? There's like a full second through there if you line it up right and go flat.
I’m definitely losing time there. I’m struggling with that corner. I often have to lift to avoid running wide up the hill or when I make sure I don’t need to I feel like my exit is too slow. Is it a clean lift off, turn, then full, or is it half throttle for a bit then floor it?
Floor it. Run over the first sausage, not with your tyres but 2 tyres on each side. This gives you a great angle to attack from, you can just miss the next sausage on the left and go flat until you breathe the throttle through the fast right hander. The Lancer is really good, give it a crack.
High risk high reward, do it in quali not in race as when you hit that little sausage you're going to have a bad time (unless you're an alien, than you can do it all the time).
Definitely. In race I seem to do ok, gaining a few places usually. Even when I was starting nearer the front earlier in the week I got a couple of second place finishes. I just need to start nearer the front. Trouble is when you’re down past 8th you start on quite a uphill slope so you end up with the race splitting into two packs as the top 6 have much quicker starts.
Sven, what's your preferred reset method? I'm racing B/S and would love to sandbag down in C or D once or twice... Thanks in advance.Nice qualy time! I managed a 7:11.6 on an empty lap 2 in the RC F. Sticking with that as I'm fully tuned to the car. I got back in DR.A and fully experience the DR discrimination again. Red SR every race for ?, getting jostled in traffic I guess. So down to SR.C after a couple races and reset DR.B. Perfect, I get to start further back again
I'm always suspect of GT-R drivers on the track. It is indeed stable and therefore a good choice for the dirtiest drivers. Two races back a GT-R went out of his way to work me off the track. I'm passing on the outside and not leaving room isn't enough, he has to go off track to grind me into the wall, twice. I paid him back into the end, punted him into reset at the bottom of the hill. I'll gladly take that SR deduction. Of course the GTR got a blue S.
I wired my ps4 pro and ps5. It shouldn't matter since they are close to the modem anyway, but I have a suspicion a lot of our problems are from Franks_WIFI. Someone in the neighborhood is using a (likely illegal) booster. Every time that comes on (with max bars, same as my extender 8 ft from me, and far more than my modem downstairs) stuff starts randomly disconnecting... So far so good, no disconnects since using LAN cable. SA is still laggy of course, doesn't make a difference, but I haven't had these periods anymore where everything goes haywire for 5 seconds, then restores or sometimes disconnected due to data loss. It must be interference.
Anyway day 3 of the racing grade 5 math/science teacher. Nothing like going top speed over the ring with my kid asking probability questions
The trick is to drive back and forth for a while then quit.
(depends on the split, top split mostly everyone qualifies, bottom split half don't qualify)
