I agree. The R8 is a bit slow. Still, I think it's a very safe car. I tried all 3 types:Just did the race with a tweaked Audi R8 '08. Not a cakewalk, but manageable.
SH - No good at all. Too slow.
SM - Somewhat capable, but still slow. Got a win by passing the leader literally in the last lap at the final corners.
SS - This was very pleasant. Tire wear is not that high in default settings so it's easy to do 8 laps. The car handles very nice.
Funny that this car can do 8 laps with SS without problems, which is also the same ammount of laps it can do with SM.
I used to think that SS tires could last for like, 4-5 laps, so I'd need a very fast car for a 2-stop strategy, like the blue NSX does. Last weekend I tried the R8 and the Cayman. Both can do 8 laps without any problems, which kinda makes SM useless for them.
And speaking of tire wear, I still can't find a good way to minimize tire wear on the R33. The wear on front tires is just insane.
