Racing Hard tyres and full upgrades brings it to about 536pp. It's not very fast though. Probably better for a one make series? Have you guys been able to make the aqua competitive with the rest of these? I think the lack of gears is really hampering it.

I assign two of them as AI cars, in my Super Taikyu ST5 class. AI are pretty quick with it. It’s usually ahead of the Fits(I’ve got four or five) and Demios(Four) and on tail of the MX-5s. From this post below, on the first page. I’ll jump on and snap a pic of the set up.

I run these in my Super Taikyu custom races. They’re near stock engine numbers like the real regulations, have a PP range of 515(Honda), 482(Mazda), 530(Toyota). PP range of 546-560 have them at 214BHP/890kg(Mazda), 172BHP/890kg(Honda), 150BHP/885kg(Toyota). All with RH.
The Aqua is stuck with the CVT and adjusting the power curve. Have yet to run them separately, in a TT. However, the AI run in a battle pack during races. Along with the Roadsters. Demio has the greatest advantage with fuel. Naturally.

I’ll have to dial back the Euro turbo cars and Clios. Always fun working this stuff out.
