I didnt even overtake you or come close enough to make an overtaking attempt ?

How was I faster ?

Coming online in an hour to do some testing myself .
I got a run on you by a couple mph and by the end of the straight you had a couple mph on me, side by side. I have no intention to argue. Just stating why I assume that all of the RX7s would cut 10hp. I was also illegally cutting corners in practice and you ran the same times as me, with more of a penalty.
 
I tried the rx7 at maximum penalty 255 hp 477 pp and it took me 5 laps to get a 58 0 at monza

I also tried the brz at maximum penalty 285 hp 490 pp and i got a 58 0 on my first flying lap

BRZ felt like the better car at maximum penalty comparing it to the RX7 only.

Must be the turbo or the torque or both.

Karsten told me there is no max hp penalty.

That's a little crazy that a car with 30 less hp ran the same time at monza though.

I thought maximum penalty was/is 30 hp , well those times were with 30 hp less than the recommended .
 
Atleast we know the penalties will work, once all the fast guys get heavy we should have new faces on the podium. And a much closer final points table.
 
I may have to pull out of the series. I got a new job and this series runs right in the middle of the regular work day during the week. If it was a few hours later I could make it but I don't expect that to happen. I'll let you know before Monday.

Thats no good for your team

Shame to see you go but im sure others will like the free space on the podium now
 
The RX7 is too fast at 295.
The car might be, but not with me in it. :) At 285 bhp, my best on Monza was 1:58.5, ie. almost a week. I'm thinkng about dropping the series, can't see any fun in driving at last position being 5 minutes behind others...

I'm running 58's, so what's the problem?

That's why there's success penalties.. 20 and 10 hp is a lot in a spec series
 
sorry to bring more sadness to skeng, but it's 10% cloudy, they changed the meteo completely. rain chance should be close to zero

by fourth race there's promotion of performance, and the front runners will start to struggle with penalties. if i were in you i wouldn't drop the serie, very interesting times are ahead ;)

oh and also you should really train with others it's very helpful.

What's the max amount of hp you can lose from penalties?
 
Does anyone know the amount of time difference between offline and online?

Trying to get a rough guess at my race speed tomorrow, and only have offline to go off.

Around a second, sometimes more depending on car and track. The difference is tire wear is off which give you a lot more grip for some reason.

Thanks, I thought it was around a second. I need more practice on this track before the race tomorrow then.

Still can't see how you get so much from the rx7 by the way, I know it's only offline but I'm now a second slower in the rx7 compared to the Lexus, 54.4 and 55.5 at Monza.

Idk unless offline is that much different. I think the RX-7 favors a more aggressive style where as the Lexus is more rolling on and off throttle because of its midrange and broken physics.
