No, nothing else it being done with the Volvo (other than regulation adjustments).



You and Nin teamed up then? If so, are you making up the Audi Works Team?

I assume so Will give that Volvo a run today and let you know.👍

Okay, I'll note that down! 👍

Also, I've removed Mazda and Toyota from the Series...

Audi gets 335bhp after pl at 50. Time to figure out which part to remove.

@Roflwaffle I was considering the Alfa, if I like it do you want to team up?

How is the Alfa at the new spec? Found any decent times.

I'll test it at new spec as well, then get back to you 👍

Scanny as i feared (this is only my opinion as a neutral ) The Volvo is far too heavy now taking your A/Ring data on board and trying it around Fuji it needs an instant diet! It's slower down the straight than the Audi 155 compared to 157 needs to be the other way round given the advantages a 4WD should have. I struggled to get it into the 1.45's. Personally i'd knock it back to say 1350 kg and try again weight seems to make such a difference compared to GT5 i'll leave the rest in your hands.👍

@V8-Johnboy: when I get home, I'll have a look into the Specs again!

@Roflwaffle & @raceorama123432: if you decide to team up in the Alfa, let me know! 👍

In other news, Humberside Racing is now the Honda Works Team.. Myself and SkengD will be heading the Honda attack!

So now, we have 2 Teams ready (2 Works Teams)!

Well Skeng in a Honda may well be a bad move.. He may just get straight wins through the Season!

 

[Ninners]

And people said I was an alien in ToCA pre-season...lol

Well saying Skeng was the first driver to win 2 BTCC Seasons - and it was twice in a row!

 

[V8-Johnboy]

Team title just got interesting.

 

[Roflwaffle]

I'm waiting to see what Orama says about the Alfa, then I'll get testing with it

 

[Ninners]

French Racing Blue + Passion Red Rims = Good looking car.

 

[Scaniabebe]

Frecn Racing Blue + Passion Red Rims = Good looking car.

Oh no, not more blue!
It'll become as Blue as TOCA became!

Speaking if which, I'm going to ask Furi if the HSR Cars can run in blue and silver for the last event of the Season!

My Audi seems to be sitting really low on the arch's looks pretty evil!

That's the good think about these Standard Cars - they can go really low! That Megane we tested could go so low that when you turned - the front wheels would go through the body!

Did 20 mins at BHI (10 in Lexi, 10 in Alfa) and Lexi was ahead by .3, however, Alfa wasnt tunes properly yet. I'll try a few different things in an hour then make my decision 👍

Sounds good, if you do decide to use the Alfa, then tell me the tune you use as well

I couldn't possibly say

Sure 👍

The thing that puts me off the Lexus a little is the fact it needs a good lap to get some heat in the tyres. I didn't have the confidence to push with it to start with and lost touch a little during the short races we had the other day. Once they were up to speed it was a rocket and pretty good off the start line to boot.
