Well, the rally version of this car just won everything around the year I was born (1977)...

Here it's a ~500km mileage road setup, with drift elements. I wonder what she can give against other 360hp cars, because she's a very suprisingly fast drifter car.

This car is just a "replay car". If you guys loves to watch replays, and learnt her to drive fast and well, you'll have fun with her. She's not a drifter just for the purpose of it. She's an equilibrated drifter with high autoturn capacities.

Just like another one car... I can't wait to put her against the four hundred horsepower of an NSX. It should be a fabulous duel.

Any comments, improvements or suggestions are welcome.

Tips
- Will win European Championship in expert if driven correctly. 450hp ? Who cares ! :)
- Brake late, turn just sligthly, DON'T counterturn, leave brakes, DON'T counterturn, leave gently the turning wheel back to neutral, DON'T counterturn, step with two feet on gaz when you face the corner, DON'T counterturn (or just a little to face corner exit), keep jumping on your gaz pedal. It's not a very intelligent way to drive but it's fun. It's not my fault it's the setup's I sware ! :)
- S turns is the same at the drifty ones but with counterturning and a little hop on gaz (realease gaz/couterturn/step on gaz). Don't get confused. There's a wall on C corners, none in S corners. You are warned.
- She autoturns around quick corners very frequently, so beware, this car is not easy to drive. But autoturning is so frequent and satisfying that it's a pleasure to drive. You'll almost can control it (maybe with a little more work I could do better on that) : brake late, turn just sligthly, leave everything and the car will follow the corner alone, her weigth will lock the LSD just only what it's needed to turn. The problem ? I was discouraged by her crappy initial LSD 5 (mandatory with no driving help) to tune this better.
- Don't put her online on servers with tires exaution option put on. 1st on lap 1, last on lap 2. You'll be regretting the naugty thing you did and you will choose a Lotus Elise after. Well, err... Yeah, you will. :D
- Drifty turns is the same at the S ones but with (almost) no counterturning. Wall. You are warned a second time. :D

Just tried this setup in the Stratos Rally car and its fun to say the least, lift off oversteer but very controlable even with high speed. 👍

I would love to have it... I'll make a true rally setup with this one when I'll put my hand on it :)
 
My Bobs are owning the competition in the Grand Valley 300km with this car. I was figuring it would be closer then this considering the ineptitude that my Bobs typically show behind the wheel.....
 
great tune mnice to drive. rekon you could try to tune a cuda 440 six pack.
