^ who was at fault ?

^ who was at fault ?

Long story short, everyone.


Ciro ran me on to the far, far, far inside while I tried to pass, I ended up hitting a wall, over-corrected, touched grass, lost the back end and polar was there to collect me.

Actually you collected me

 

[ITCC_Andrew]

I was sideways in front of you. Word that how you will, and remember that English isn't specifically my first language.

You were already wrecking and just took me with you. I was just trying to make the corner. You even said you were sorry in the lobby. Just correcting your mistake, so buck doesn't think I caused the wreck.

 

[Gedi69]

Has anything fallen off it yet ?

Nah far from it, it's a dream to drive and it pulls like a train for a diesel, I'm getting it remapped soon which will give it an extra 50bhp

 

[Ettick]

I think I'll try out for the BMW too in case I don't land the spot with Honda.

I've been out of action for a few days and will be for a few more days due to medical issues so I haven't been getting much practice and will likely need a backup.

BMW is a factory team, right?

 

[Turbo_snail]

Breaking News!
Turbo_snail will be testing tomorrow, and news is expected straight afterwards.

Except I didn't race at Brands Hatch...

Then it was Blake,

Fair enough...

 

[ITCC_Andrew]

@Ettick, BMW is independent.

 

[KingSakery]

@ITCC_Andrew Well Hyundai drives nice but at Ascari it is 1.7sec slower than Honda/Mini/Ford but on par with Eclipse.

Need to test the rest though.
BTW Mini needs decent Tranny knowledge and or setting by the way. And even with that your not fast on straights (topspeed-wise). But the handling is superb because of the oversteer it has you just have to use it (Honda and Ford have it too )

 

[Ettick]

@Ettick, BMW is independent.

I guess I'll settle for Alfa or maybe Citroën then

 

[buck1]

Testing the clio, if anyone wants to join

Some of my cars do not have these parts. These parts are just recommended? Or they must be fitted?​

 

[buck1]

Motegi east 1.26.0 clio 👍👎 ?

 

[ITCC_Andrew]

@Harsk100, they're very important. I'm using the parts to balance the cars. Cars with slow acceleration are getting more torque at the same horsepower.

@buck1, I'd venture to say good... You're ToS, check the ToS times for each car again.

 

[Harsk100]

If I don't put the required parts , I'm disqualiffied?

 

[buck1]

Just trying the focus atm .6 off isn't it supposed to be better than most of the other cars at this spec ? I will look for a tune on here , then try it again.

 

[buck1]

If I don't put the required parts , I'm disqualiffied?

Harsk come on, no need to ask daft questions ... leave that to me

Just add what you see in the specs ok

 

[ITCC_Andrew]

@buck1, I'll have to re-test... For me the cars were even at Motegi East. I'm wondering now, whether PD changed physics on me....

@Harsk100, disqualified will be the second time. First time will be 30-60 second time-based penalty.

 

[Harsk100]

@Harsk100, disqualified will be the second time. First time will be 30-60 second time-based penalty.

So I have to apply these required parts for my cars!

 

[ITCC_Andrew]

Yes.

 

[gtpcaine]

So I have to apply these required parts for my cars!

There is no point NOT running with them. 95% of the time in BHP limited regulations its faster to add every power mod and just whack on the power limiter. PP limited regs its a different story.

EDIT

Which brings me onto my next point Mel. Its all well and good telling people what parts to use, but how are you able to police it fairly?

 

[ITCC_Andrew]

I have several methods. Only the ToS and those interested will be informed of the methods.

With that in mind, I'll give you several clues: numbers, RPM, boost, pp, sounds etc., can all be used to tell a car which is good from one which is bad.

Do replays now correctly show turbo boost?

 

[ITCC_Andrew]

Some cars shouldn't have boost at all. If there's a boost gauge, at all, it's not in spec.


I'll PM you specifics, which I don't feel should be publicly known - so people are unable to cheat the system.

Last time I checked, boost gauges weren't showing even on cars with turbo's. I could be wrong though.

 

[ITCC_Andrew]

I have not yet noticed that problem, but I'll look into it.
