Don't forget me!![]()
Someone post the replays, I'll want to watch the tire wear now![]()
I'm sorry you take my post as demeaning. I understand what you like and was trying to save you and ourselves time and effort. As well keep focus so we can stay on schedule.
Really excited about the season and sooner we get going. The better.![]()
Seth got an idea. Have you considered a built Super GT series in racing softs? Maybe something where the cars are pretty wicked fast yet have the great grip from softs. I'd honestly be interested in something like that too. This idea maybe already done or in use. I don't know. Just sounded like fun and fits what you enjoy.
Kazuki Nakajima: “It was interesting to experience the track in an LMP1 car. I know Fuji Speedway well from Super GT racing but it is of course different to experience it with the TS030 HYBRID. The track is good fun in this car and I was really struck with the braking. In Super GT we don’t use carbon brakes so it was impressive to feel the difference. Compared to Super GT, the TS030 HYBRID is about four seconds quicker over one lap but in Super GT we have softer tyres; on race pace the difference will be around six seconds I think. The time is mainly made up from the braking and the boost out of the corner; it’s all cornering speed
I base my belief off more than lap times. Even so, I can't run 1:43's at Motegi or 1:33's at Fuji on Hard tires, these cars don't have enough d.f. compared to real life either.
freshseth83Would you believe me if I said yes?

we wouldn't believe anyone if they didn't provide pics and video proof.
Heck just a good story with names and a believable chain of events might do though
Well, I know RT's driven more race cars than I have... so I'll side with him on tire feel until Boris Said starts sim racing with us.
Which is....zero.
It's not like race cars are completely different from street cars.
Sorry, no 'video proof'we wouldn't believe anyone if they didn't provide pics and video proof.

So there's other factors with GT5 that are'nt realistic?
So it could be something else than tire grip only that can improve/affect laptimes?
That's pretty much my take on it as well.
But then again, it's really hard to compare GT5 to real life.. Especially since we have'nt driven SGT's irl.
And even if we had, it would still be impossible to pin point the reason, or most likely reasons why laptimes are'nt comparable.
Which one? Most of them were street cars, save for the car we used for drifting. That was more like a gutted street car with a cage.
oh, I thought the one they used for the final was a caged and stripped... pfft... guess I'll go back to listening to forced.![]()
