Challenging Races tonight - my goal was not to finish last....and that was a challenge.

 

Regarding the 1st Race.

 

Were you guys running the Tom's supra or something different, I was hitting the limiter on the straights and all you lot basically pulled away......

 

Perhaps I need to contact oilman and change from Castrol to Silkolene :)

Yeah the standard TOMs Supra was hitting the limitter on the straights.

But you can get a tow and hit a higher speed for a short time.

 

Some good racing online, I never done much of it before but I thinks its a good laugh.

First coner mayhem is always fun.

I did but they went off very quickly lighting up at most corners.. I had that Le Mans race in the bag but blew it about 4 corners from the end touching the damn grass lol - I was so pissed but did laugh lots seeing Alan totally shave/miss out the chicanes leading onto the start finish the cheeky sod :D

That LeMans race was cool. Starting off in the dark and going through to morning. The graphics and the lighting system in the game are a big step forward.

 

I was heading on for 2nd place but my 100mph+ entry in to the tyre wall on lap 4 didn't help my cause in that race. haha.

I was waiting for the brake lights of 2nd place in front of me before I braked, but they never appeared. :)

Yup, I enjoyed Monza a lot, I thought I'd own you all in my Lambo but Aron stole my thunder :D

 

haha

The Ferrari 458 that I have in the garage is particularly set up for Monza ;)

2nd and 3rd gear conrers I have the gearbox so that its hitting the limiter if I accelerate too much. It means that if I get a bit too throttle happy, instead of spinning off it will just hold the speed on the limiter until I exit the corner and select next gear. (The 458 has 7 gears so its easy to set it up like this on some tracks).

 

Saying that, Bobbeh, you were matching my times on many of the laps. Its just as well I got ahead at the start when I did ;)

Yeah, thats it, you gotta get the gear ratios and camber right for some of the tracks if you want to be really particular about it. In the first race/practise I had it set up for a stop speed of about 235! But the track isnt big enough for that car to hit those speeds.. then lowered it to about 215, I think I should have reduced it further!

 

Put a full bodykit on my Lambo now, looks pretty mean in black ;)
