My Citroen can only get to 242 HP, am I missing something on it? I have all the parts available, but it is 34 HP off what it is listed as.

Iirc, mine had 276 perfectly fine. 
Is yours broken in, with clean oil, and engine rebuild? What about a turbo? And the Engine Tuning?

Got the car, changed oil, engine ticket, all parts. It said there wasn't a turbo available though, might be that. Strange that yours has a turbo and mine doesn't. Would it be possible for you to dupe it and send me one?

That's avg. If you're really busting your DS3/Wheel you'll be able to pull 1:31 and 1:21.

@gokartman78, I need to investigate this, if I find that mine does have 276, I'll send it over.

AYC for Lancer is kinda unfair (me thinks this).
It is a special "thing" created for the Lancer to help her cornering. But you get twice as much Tire-wear from using/abusing this.
But if you make the car heavier and or lower the bhp you´ll be good.
BTW I´m in for this.
KingSakery/Sakery --> probably the FWD Golf 5 (will test and announce my pick)

Qualifying Race #2: Cape Ring South, 8+1 laps
Standing Start races:
Feature race #1: Cape Ring South, 16+1 laps
Feature race #2: Cape Ring South, 16+1 laps
For the rolling start races, odd positions (1st, for example) will line up on the left, and accelerate at the first timing line, called the "acceleration line." By the start/finish line, no passes shall have been made, but the race shall be under way as of crossing it.

I want people to join in for pre-season, a bit early, so that things can go smoothly.
The smooth functioning of ITCC 3 is important to me. Of course, a lot of the ToCA guys know what's going on when we say it, so I'm not worried about the ToCA guys having many problems.
I'm hoping that the people who aren't fully adjusted to GTP racing can join a bit early.

Right, i'll have a Volvo in interim colours.

Or you could buy a Mazda AZ-1 for like 15k credits and have the right color.

I got down to 1:22.7, forgot to save the replay though so I don't know what speed it was at

The amazing part is, those speeds at Cape Ring South never saw me get above 5th gear. I also tested at SSR5, Trial Mountain, Suzuka East, and Monza, and only at Monza was I in 6th gear for any decent amount of time. And that was while running the 6-speed close ratio transmission. Is that normal? Also, at Suzuka East and Trial Mountain, the Impreza was often close to or more than one second per lap faster than my Scirocco in last season's specs.

Hmmmm, I just don't think you get along with FF cars. The Scirocco, when furinkazen, polar, and I tested, was normally a second faster than the other cars.
Your tuning setup on the Scirocco... 
I recall the Scirocco being the worst-tuned ITCC car, out-of-the-box, but the fastest when it was tuned correctly.
I don't know how to tune it, but I got a decent tune and it was super fast! Then I tried my Evo, last season, and realized it was too far down on power. It's still a bit slow... The BMW was just as nice handling, but, we had to nerf it back a bit... In the end, things swung in favour of the Volvo a little bit, but, I couldn't tune it.

There are two doors and a hatch. Which will you use?
Joking aside, the specs haven't been confirmed yet, but I'd like to see fewer 4WD cars, just to ensure that it's not just a 4WD vs. 4WD series, with no contest from the other drivelines. We'll make it a much more diverse series, hopefully.
So, TL;DR, I want RWDs, testing to be done, spec unconfirmed.

I think 4WD is gonna be the drivetrain to have for the tight, twisty tracks, while FF will fare better on the longer, straighter tracks like Daytona, Monza and Rome. I don't know how FR will fare due to a lack of data available right now. 4WD will definitely have an advantage in the rain.
I also used my Cape Ring South setup when testing at Suzuka East and SSR5 and they seemed to work quite well. Ran a different version of the same setup at Trial Mountain and blitzed my Scirocco's best time by around 2 seconds. Monza required a much different setup. After the Monza test, the car was broken in and needed an oil change, so I don't have to worry about constantly resetting the power at the mandated spec limit. Haven't tested at the other tracks yet, but will do so before those races happen.

That's exactly what's going on. It's been that way since Season 1.
The Honda Civics and such were fastest around a lap of a track in season 1, by a wee bit, but the pit-stops killed the FFs. The 4WDs were slightly sluggish on the straights, and the FRs showed the best tire life and overall speed.
Season 2, the 4WDs were not as disadvantaged over a 1-lap session because of the tire rules change, so they were fast on the tracks with lots of hairpins, while FFs were fastest at High Speed Ring. The FRs, as normal, slotted into the middle.
