Just ran the HSV on Fuji for a good hour or so, and I'm absolutely in love with it. It corners like a dream an actual dream. I have a few questions though.
My best guess is when deciding who to use what cars and what not will be the random selection like in the first season?
And secondly, since Aero has been improved or so, are we still going to be running full downforce or will that be compromised?
We're looking at some different options regarding both of your questions.
Assigning cars: Not sure at all exactly how it will be done. But something like prior JGTS 1 I guess. You know: Rank the cars from 1-X (Depending on how many cars we decide to include, which pretty much depends on interest), then sort all choices in the best possible way.
We'll most likely reduce the number of cars (bye to the NSX's), but allow 3 drivers/car, but only top 2 score points for the team.
But as the HSV might attract a lot of interest, we'll probably allow 2 teams = 6 drivers for the WEIDER HSV-010 team.
And the aero aspect: Initial testing indicates that full aero is still the way to go.. Need to test a bit more though.
But no matter the aero, we'll most likely cap the cars @ 502, 512, 522 bhp, and @ 1100, 1110, 1120 kg intervals to ensure that power can't be boosted if aero is tuned down.
We've used the GT-R as benchmark, but if the WEIDER (517 bhp, 1100 kg, 604 PP fully broken in) can't keep up as stock, we'll slow the GT-R down a tad to make sure we can include the HSV. JGTS 2 won't start without it. 👍
