I have yet to get to my ps3 since I signed up for this, but I understand that the golf is understeer happy and bad tire wear, which is good because I had similar problems with a Honda Integra race car in the Toca series, which is similar in power so I should be able to get a good tune on this car.
By the way: Has anyone ever mis-judged the first corner when running the 2005 configuration of Le Mans? The Dunlop chicane is a lot trickier and it could cause trouble on lap 2, since there will be a lot of battling on lap 1 and it's a very long lap. Someone could be in the gravel.
