Not sure if you have put the wrong description for the car or if you have not noticed you are using the wrong one. In the original post it says the Opel Team Phoenix 00 but your tune is for the Super Touring, are we allowed to use the Super Touring or is that a genuine mistake by yourself? Just trying to save you from an automatic DQ unless I have missed somewhere that we are allowed to use it 👍
Is there no difference between the cars what so ever? Just noticed they are the same in the OCD
The cars are completely different, and you're only allowed to use the car specified. The Super Touring Car is AWD, and I believe has considerably less power.
Hopefully it was just a mistake on his part when posting the tune, as I really don't think the Super Touring could keep up with the other 2.
Thanks Kev just been reading through page one of this thread and it had been asked if that car could be used, and the answer was no, so hopefully it's just a genuine description error on his part:tup:
Someone asked about the Vauxhall Astra, which is also there in the OCD. That's presumably the exact same car, with a different badge. But you still can't use it.
I just loaded the game and looked in the OCD, and I was wrong about the Astra Super Touring. It does look to be the same car from a standpoint of specs, but you need to use the Opel I specified, in case there are subtle differences.
I was thinking of the '94 Calibra Super touring, which is heavier, has less power, and is AWD.
Ok thanks Kev, just thought I would point it out so that he doesn't get an automatic DQ:tup:

I now have a solid lap in one of the cars, now I'll have a proper go with the others.
I will be extremly interested to see if you find a faster one than the first car you used Ash. Nice splits.
I went back and tried the 2 previous cars I didnt find to be that good. I still think ones better than the other two and faster. I cant drive as good as you can tho obviously at this track...yet.
If you find a faster car I will be so shocked. lol
Because I read your first post where you said you couldnt tune and drove the car with just full downforce and default everything else, I tried that also on the car I think is the best and yeah its not half bad so maybe we are driving the same car. lol
Unless the hurricane dampens my plans, I will be racing on at Chuk's this weekend. 👍
Are all 3 car choices 'standard' cars?
The whole point of doing it this way is to have everyone choose the car that is fastest for THEM. The car that suits their individual driving style.
If the past is any indicator, I think we'll find there's certainly one car that may have a theoretical advantage over the others, but it might not be the easiest car to drive. So lower divisions and controller drivers might be able to lap faster in one of the other cars...
It's a great idea Ed
First ''official'' splits for me:
I only have 1 car so far,and have only done 10 laps or so, but i was eager to put my first times on the board.
Who's Ed?
Good eye, I'll have to double check, I may just just jumped in the first Opel I saw after reading the Vauxhaul question, if it is the wrong car I'll see if they're different or not.Not sure if you have put the wrong description for the car or if you have not noticed you are using the wrong one.

I'm so lost right now. I have tried different set-ups and different cars and I just can't figure it out. I need to go back and watch videos from the first trip here for the GP/D event for T1, see if that can help.. When I feel fast I'm usually a tenth or two slower than my ghost. Any thoughts on chassis reinforcement? I usually hate it but may back up my save and give it a shot.
ASH32I have chassis reinforcement, I always use it. That said I don't know if it improves the car or not but it would be stupid if it didn't.
Some cars it seems to cause instability with cornering. It messed up my GSX-R setup to the point where I just stopped trying.
Opel Astra Touring Car (Opel Team Phoenix) '00
Updated, seems to be the almost identical if not completely. A few minor changes.
