The Ferrari Challenge - CompletedPS4

I've just realised that SMS have duplicated some of the 365 numbering on the cars. So it's not so critical on picking your choices. If you find you're in the same car as someone else you can always swap for the next race if you want to.

I think think the 355 and 488 are ok, no duplication.

Just did my first laps at Imola in the 488 ... definitely a long way to go

It's a car that you get used to as you put more time into it. As I've said to Sean, you're going faster than you think in it compared to the others.

By the end of series you be good at driving them Xeron.

As usual it's keeping it stable while breaking that's causing me troubles.

But wrench time makes a difference.

The 355 on the other side. That car is just fun all day long.

I was kinda hoping to be fast before we end the series hehe

Have you tried the stable tuning setting? Also lowering your brake sensitivity in the configuration options might help. It reduces the initial peddle input.

Paul can I have 36 365 GTB and 42 355. Should have written the American engine types down, safety, brake similar British. German train ICE, safety lot more, complicated, so little harder.

When they discover pedals, sprockets and gears there'll be no stopping them.
The youngsters look so serious on the start line.

Leader-Boards. Don't worry, they'll shrink to size as rounds are added.

Thanks @AndreasR and @half_sourly for your usual (speedy) contributions. Results post updated.

I think everything worked quite well. Any comments? It overran slightly but should be a bit tighter next week.

Sorry for the slight confusion and delay on the 2nd race. I should have said that to enable everyone to have their choice of 488 I had to allow classes. I initially thought I could use identical, which we've been using up until now, but I couldn't. This only really affects the 365 race where you have to pick it from amongst those available.

I asked on the PSN message and there was a positive response. I'll just repeat it here in case anyone missed it. The 5 minute quick qualification - everyone OK with it? Once we've got used to it I think it'll be generally popular.

Don't forget you can use other views other than interior if you like. I tend to use bonnet when racing online just to get a better sense of whats around me. I switch back to internal when offline for immersion.

Nice John. 👍

Now that I know them I've just updated Rich's and BeachBoy's race numbers and I noticed an admin error I'd made.

@Maxmusmonster and @xeronima have the same Ferrari 365 - the burgundy number 38. Now since Max just got his selection in earlier Xeron would be the one to change. Saying that if you both want to keep it I'm not that bothered. It'd just be better to differentiate in John's pictures. The half red half yellow number 37 is available* and might look good on track, hint hint.

* Same number as Rich but different colours.

@richroo - 355 # 18 / 365 # 37 / 488 # 13

thanks @IfAndOr would never have remembered

Guys I will skip this one. Since tomorrow is my birthday, hope I will get few points anyway

 

[half_sourly]

Happy Birthday. Hope you have a great day.

 

[John Wells]

Happy Birthday Napalm have great day.

 

[richroo]

Have a great day @Napalm_LT
no points needed think we're having a drop score for unavoidable absence

[IfAndOr]

An extra point is available for birthdays. I will need a slice of cake as evidence though.

Here's one I made earlier.

Have a great day Napalm.

I was waiting for the water splash.

At least with all the work involved your family should keep themselves warm in that shed of yours.

Last race I was looking for my Ferrari 488 number 197 (Apac) but but it does not exist, it must be number 179 !!
