The Human Comedy 6 - Pre1979, Alsace

[Keef]

Not sure if it would work after the tuning changes but I'm pretty sure the Alpine A220 would still work. It's a race car with a little bit of downforce. That Mercedes was pretty quick at first but I did win the race handily after figuring out how to drive that bastard.

The Honda RA272 '65 on CM, with added weight and detuned engine, wins reasonably easily. I think I altered the gearing as well. Lapping around 2:29, and it is a no-stop race.
As there was no tyre wear showing, is this a glitch? The tyres did seem to reduce in grip during the race, but no red appeared on the tyre wear icon.

The 73 Porsche 911 Carrera RS made quick work of this one. I put comfort softs on it and a power restrictor and went after it. This car is so well balanced and easy to drive. One stop for fuel only. Short shifted only because it didn't make power up top anymore, and there wasn't much point in going beyond 6k for most shifts.

I just got the win with a Honda RA272 on CMs but I wouldn't call it easy. I detuned and added ballast, and lowered the required top speed gearing. I managed to get away cleanly and stuck behind P1 and P2 for the first half of the race. The trick is not to spin or go deep at all. Not even once. I noticed that P1 and P2 sometimes sped up and sometimes slowed, but I just kept out of their way because I learnt from my first attempt at this race that they will try and goad you into a wheel-to-wheel and then ram you. So just let them get on with it and stay clear. They pit at the 30-min mark, after which you can focus on maintaining good, clean laps with no mistakes. Stay focussed. My average laptime was around 2:31, which was driving at about 97% of my ability. I pushed to 100% on the first attempt, but like I say, one spin, one mistake, and you probably won't recover! I only won by ten seconds, which is less time than it takes to recover from a spin on a hill. I also noted zero indicated tyre wear but the grip did fall off towards the end of the race.

Thank you, the Porsche was amazing, 43 seconds ahead the 2nd!

Also a good car for this is the De Tomaso Pantera '71. Put on cm tires and 160kg ballast, 93 powerrestrictor and racing brakes. (459,89PP)

At the beginning put on full 2 and do not change that during the whole race. You will have to pit at 40 minutes, only reful fully dont change tires, at round about 16-20 minutes youll have your second stop, only reful.

You will win the race with about 35sec ahead and 26 rounds.

PS: The cars handling is really bad but youll make all of your lead on the straights.

Hello, good afternoon, or whatever it is when you're reading this.

Finally after several attempts since March 2022, I managed to pass this race, and it has cost me 20 million, because just today (19/04/2025) they put the 64 Shelby Cobra Daytona on Hagerty.

Before trying the Cobra I tried the Abarth 500 with swap, but I didn't feel comfortable in it, it was hard to brake, and it was unstable in the cornering, and some time ago I tried a Camaro, the DB5, some Ferrari, but nothing.

And then I thought about the shiny Daytona that I just bought and it was quite good.

The only thing I had to buy was the tyres, Comfortable Mediums, Ballast and Power Limiter, plus the Fully Customisable Control Unit.

As you can see I put 47Kg of ballast and left it with 82 in output setting and power limiter.

And the race strategy? Quite simple, before the flying start set the fuel to 4, by lap 3 you are already in first position, then you set the fuel to 5, and at the end of lap 13, half an hour into the race, you pit to just refuel, and from there to the end of the race.

I could have done 25 laps, entering the last one with 20/30 seconds to go, but on lap 23 I went over a kerb and lost control of the car, and 20 seconds too.

I hope this helps someone.

By the way, I played the race with a controller.

I may have to end up trying that car in the future, now that I know it helped you win and all the AI was over 20 seconds behind...amazing work!

Finished today in Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GT, with a custom tune, on Easy difficulty - lapped second place by 1.5 laps. Very doable

Setup below, + wide body and adjustable spoiler. Diff braking sensitivity 30-40 depending on how you like it

1 stop, FM1 all the way except one lap in second half - did FM2 and short-shift.
