Hey folks with different strokes,
👍
I have been FR, MR, RR, xR
for well over a year now, and always dreaded the FF sensation this game offered;
- For to me they always felt like a Schnauzer trying to escape your foot , playfully held above its head , on a buffed hardwood floor, after he just finished drinking a bowl of warm beer.
I decided to select this car, for reasons that I know IRL, this car can dart and get to speed like no tomorrow, and handle itself tightly well.
To my surprise, it handled as I expected, on the Nordschleife. Quick to go straight, but my drunk Schnauzer is driving it.
What can I do, to get better grip from it's 505pp Fully upgraded Turbocharged 400HP engine?
I tried adding more weight onto its front, than it's already 60/40 repartition to try to slam the engine to the ground for grip, but it's peaking HP line slips the tires at it's peak power band, and I havent spent much time on it, perhaps 3 incompleted sad laps, trying stiff, soft, this and that, toe, no toe, but the FF feels like ...FFFFF and I would like this car to handle better... with speed, if possible.
I tried narrowing the gear ratios, but I feel they are slipping the RS tires, perhaps regardless of ratios, with this crazy engine installed, (I want max speed on the climbs!!)
thoughts?
sorry, I don't have the setup here, but I know I fully tuned it, without chassis re-enforcement.
It tops at 285 km'hr though
)
My goal is to have it compete @ 505pp, if possible, to complete a Nur Lap in 6:50s range, but I fear this may be not possible with a FF, unless I am proven wrong! Perhaps it needs a lightweight Peugot to do it right.
6:50s possible at 505pp with Elise 111R, NSX-R, Honda S2000 variants.
p.s , it's not my Schnauzer, it's my neighbours.

Could it be that this is one of the very few good FF Hondas? 
Yes, I still remember it..
