If I remember I'll take screenshots of my settings this afternoon.

My bad, it was 579pp. Here it is if you're still interested:

Tried less lethal cars at RBR and Brands Hatch. Under the suggested PP Mazda 3 with around 270hp. Fun race as I only passed Mikail in the last turn!

Mildly tuned E30 on SS was a win with a 7 second margin:

As always I start the weekly races with the harder ones, and this week is no different with the exception of picking cars more relevant to the race.
It was all good races and no problems and the one I had the most fun was the Porsche one make at Eiger.
Here are the photos of my week.
Gardens

Willow Springs

Eiger

Red Bull

Gardens was a surprise for me .
Wasn't aware of the rain and picked a car that hates rain , i only won due to AI pitstops 😵‍💫
Willow restarted 2 times due to tyre wear that was huge especially on left front.

Didn't expect to say it but i agree with @jrbabbitt that the most entertaining race is with Porsche at Eiger!!!!!
Also it's a very well pay race with CRB for less than 7 minutes .
I run this both models, different tyre types from SH to SS and the most entertaining version(518 pp if i remember well )was on SS tyres with none engine upgrades, weight etc.
The swapped version i had was a disaster.
He wants to fly in the cliff or dig a hole in the mountain 🤣

And just in case someone interesting to test it here is my set up

Also are installed
Racing pads, brakes ,air filter, manifold,muffler , crank shaft, clutch and body rigidity .
Balanced and entertaining ride .

I always wonder what those symbols mean. Care to explain?

Gr. B at Willow again? 🤮

Enjoyed the Nissan Gr. B car at Willow enough to use it for the 700PP event. I need to redo the special event. My swapped and maxed out 356 was too much car for that delightful short track.
