Suzuki Swift - Season 3 - Carbonox Takes The Title

[Phouchg]

No idea what downforce I ran, didn't even remember that you were allowed to change anything ^^

 

[chrisjohnson93]

you can only change rear downforce via the rear wing and the break bias that is it as far as i can remember

 

[Phouchg]

Ok, I wonder what kind of downforce i have.. should check that out next time.

 

[Spurgy 777]

Probably default which is 15, which is slower than running minimum

 

[Phouchg]

Correct, I was running 15, less aero is faster you say? I'll try that out next time I guess.

 

[Spurgy 777]

It was around Cape anyway

 

[Phouchg]

Oh well, that's a bit late for me to fix, but then i'll have to test which one is the fastest in rome next week ^^

I guarantee you that less downforce on all these tracks are faster with the swift. I would recomend you to set downforce as low as possible. Makes the car go faster on the straights, corner entry.

Now go practice and good luck!

Thanks Ghozt I hope it helps me somewhat.

Anyway I'm away this weekend, buuut should be back in the city by 19 GMT Sunday, which means I should just about make it home for the race. That is if the snow doesn't stop my train and I'm stuck out in nowhere for hours.

I smell racism, akmuq is mentioned first in the thread title despite the fact I won the first race.

Sorry fellas, going to have to sit this one out...
Came down with a nasty flu, which kept me awake most of the night...

 

[neljack]

Great racing guys really enjoyed tonight 👍

 

[andy63]

Awesomw race tonight! Race at cape ring i used a wheel, maybe too slow :S but at Rome i used DS3 only with the sticks(my way xD) and automatic trans. I gotta say it was awesome! I got good luck too when those behind crashed. My race was open.

Great stuff all!

MSTER232 recieves a warning for his unsportsman like driving.

 

[Phouchg]

Nice to see that 15p there ^^ too bad I suck at pack running so the second race ended badly. People kept telling me to push and then not push and then that they were braking early and then i started breaking even earlier and then guys behind me hated me (probably ^^). and man did some break early in to the 3rd turn, then they yelled divebomb when i was just coasting through the turn... that turn probably was most problematic for me since so many drove slowly through it.

or ok, the chicane was.. because i just couldn't get it right when coming in to it with someone ahead of me.

last turn crash was fun, too bad i got caught in it, didn't have chance to react and crashed in to akmuq, otherwise i could have made 5th or 6th, now i dropped to 9th instead. ^^

 

[Carbonox]

Noooooo! My podium streak has been ended!!!

Good battle race 1 too quick for me race 2

 

[chrisjohnson93]

2 new winners tonight in the 2 swedish drivers taking them, car weren't bad, managed 4th in race 1 then lost the draft after an error and only caught back up to the pack at the end of the last lap

 

[Michelin]

That 6 way battle for 4th on race 2 was epic!!

Pchough (don't hate on me if I typed your username wrong, I'm on my cellphone.), I was one of the guys who asked to back out a bit so I could have enough soace ti brake so I wouldn't cause a crash. That turn on the back straight is way too problematic for online racing in my opinion.

 

[Phouchg]

I know, that corner sucks a bit for online racing.. but i don't know if it helps to be too conservative through the corner, feels like it causes just as many crashes when the others come soaring in to the back of you. I like Rome though, it's a bit rough but it's a fun track.
