Sorry, I meant to say I used HARD tyres, not soft.
Anyways, with the GrB 86, you only need to pit once. I start on Fuel 1 to pass a heap of cars on the first lap, then change to fuel map 6, pit after 3 or 4 laps, and coast to an easy win.
Often the rain comes in this race. I might change to intermediates if it looks halfway heavy, or not if the radar indicates it may pass. The 4WD gives a huge advantage, and even with Racing Hards, I can get away with enough traction if I use TC5 for the rain.
It really is a doddle in this car. In dry conditions, geared to 330 km/h for the long straights, it blasts past all other cars.
