Lotus Elise World Tour | Saturday Racing Series | Round Six: 7th Jan

[DaxCobra]

Got lots of questions about the Daytona race...

1) Starting style? I guess rolling start after the warm up lap works fine?
2) Pit exit? The short one would likely be too dangerous so I definitely want the real one.
3) Yellow lines? Are we allowed to drive, and possibly pass, from the other side of them on the oval sections?

Im thinking standing start after warm up lap, full pit exit and no to the yellow lines

1'58.867 best for me, although I lost about 2 tenths in the final sector.

1'58.9xx for Carracerptp.

 

[DaxCobra]

Forgot to join. I know I am capable of a sub 1 minute lap there though, should be fine.

How?


I think you mean sub 2 minute

On that 58.9 I was a good 0.5 to .6 off in sector 1 and 2. I just hit the chicane perfect (no cutting, on the gas, I was trying to roll it before). I should be getting 58.5s soon.
I would think now a "Low fuel" 58.1 is doable.

With a turbo, top gear wing, and X1 pushing..... yes I could see a 0.59.999 lap time.....

Quite possible- I went 2 tenths up in the first and second sector on a lap after my 58.8xx but then mucked up the 3rd. With a perfect lap I reckon I could get 58.5 maybe .4 on a heavy fuel load. 👍

Y... You mean I am not allowed a Top Gear Turbo X1?

Damn it.

Speaking of illegal equipment, how about next season we add the LSD to the cars? I normally hate tuning but this car needs one.

 

[Phouchg]

why does it need lsd-tuning? It's the most easy driven car I've had in any championship since I drove a 4wd in JCTC. Or do you use lsd-tuning for something else? I'm not very in to tuning so I don't really know.

If you mess with it you can get the rear to say planted better.
Easy?
I like it but, easy would not be the word I would use..... It seems to need a new tune for ever track, I'm not a fan of tuning so....

 

[DaxCobra]

Im thinking maybe no tuning next season..

 

[carracerptp]

Im thinking maybe no tuning next season..

YES, that would be great.

 

[Phouchg]

That would be soo great! i love no tuning.. makes it much more even.

 

[FordMKIVJ5]

If there is a next season.

Do you mean no tuning at all, or just no mods, i.e. you can tune suspension and gearing but not power.

 

[Carbonox]

I want to remove suspension tuning

No tuning at all.

 

[FordMKIVJ5]

Hmmmm, could be fun. It would just be driver skill that decides the winner.

~Also, if a fix doesn't come to the bug soon it might be worth limiting participants to 12. 👍

 

[Phouchg]

Feels like it's very unusual that we actually get more than 12 participants in a race anyway. Even if we usually get 16 sign ups ahead of the race.

 

[DaxCobra]

So far it's a tie between Lotus and Japanese classics making a return..

Not anymore.

 

[DaxCobra]

MadMax!

You prefer Lotus' to the old Japanese Classics?

 

[Carbonox]

What if we make a series with both Elise RM's and Japanese Classics?

 

[DaxCobra]

/facepalm

You hardly joined any Japanese Classic races. You're voice is not wanted.
