FRL~ToCA12 - Ninners, Furinkazen, FAS, Volvo, Champions!Finished

[Furinkazen]

That's not the case anyway...
There are two teams... Humberside Racing and Humberside Junior Racing - same owners but different teams

Well we've had a few change in events, anyway...

I don't care if you've got 15 drivers saying they'll go for you - you can enter 3 cars on any given night.


We'll see how things go over weekend. If a lot of people still haven't tested etc then i'll extend the time till car selection formally opens into next week.

You, Scania are down as you wanted to be in Renaults (at least he did) from middle last season. Think people are forgetting you might as well throw last seasons formbook for cars out the window. If no-one takes a Mazda for one that is a mistake. And jumping on the Renaults simply because they're fast on a straight...

Early testing at BH Indy (some with decent setups, some with very, very basic setups, some with apparently bad setups):

4 cars in the 47.1-47.3 range.
2 cars at about 47.7. (those coincidentally were the basic setups)
1 car at 48.0.
1 car at 48.6. Ahem. And that was with a setup from a well-known tuner. No idea how to get 1.5s out of that one.

What's a little scary is that at least 2 cars among the fastest also seemingly have great top speed.

Thats a TBC entry, as will be the case for the others from now

PM me details through and I can forward to Test Drivers Group...?

Yay, I think

 

[Bo]

Pending testing I'm fairly certain on my car.

Yeah that was a serious post from me (no really). I don't want to drive the Renault again, had enough of full lock round corners and waiting till out of the corner to get back on the throttle.

Hmm ok.. So much for "Andils at Humberside again"..

Which is different from me since I'm switching in the other direction after being in a heavy RWD.

 

[Bo]

I'm not going RWD again.

I will try to find an alternate setup first to see, if I make any progress. Could be that it needs something radical in setup or driving style to make it fast. Maybe the car's also not suited to that track, but I think I should at least be able to get it down to mid to high 47's.

Would not surprise me if Lexus or Honda.

 

[Panoz]

Seeing I'm not the only one who is switching to a different drivetrain layout.

Really surprised. And really a shame to lose Mazdaspeed unless @CAMikaze is returning - is he?

 

[raceorama123432]

Completely opposite for me. I'd like to get a win in every drive format. I've had FWD and 4WD. Just need RWD now

 

[AudiMan2011]

I'm assuming there'll be no pitstops in the 3 races.

Correct

 

[Ninners]

No pitstops unless weather intervenes (can only switch to Wets if it rains, no inters).

If you can no stop Bathurst you are doing very well or you have disconnected early on

Honda needs a radical setup. Super soft front/hard rear and no rear camber works decent.

 

[AudiMan2011]

Correct

Thanks. Just something I'll need to get used to being a ToCA newcomer.

Generally I think a lot of FWDs need that set up, to an extent.

You'll settle in

Race's are only 20 minutes. Do you understand the qualifying system?

Yeah, it means I'll need to up my game if I'm to progress from Q1
