2011/1 RD Touring Car Championship (STCC)

[Eckhart von Glan]

oh dear oh dear, that rear leftie. I might go for two pitstops, it's down to 48% after 12 laps

 

[Pedro Amaral]

I have same problem but with all custom skin,sometime connect normal but most time have minidump.
I resolve this with SimRacingManager,remove some mods:
1.BST
2.BTCC_2009
3.FVR_Addons

Well I've done that and seems to be ok now.

thanks

Thats really alot. You sure?
I mean it suffers more then normal but not that much for me.

 

[Yuri Braham]

The BMW's already having a hard time keeping up....... but after the test i did last night.....well... *crying* its impossible.
After 20 minutes the rear tyres reach the mid 50 % wear..... disaster.

Damn you Simbin .... (do they hate RWD's?).

 

[Andreas Löffler]

Shame :tongue:, seems it will be then the same like with the e90 in season 5. The races are too long for the RWD, but i´m hoping for nice racing .

 

[Ivo Simons]

The Feature races are the same lenght as in Season 4 and in that season the top 4 was all BMW.

I won't give away alot about my tire wear resuts but I lose around 2.1% from my Front Left wheel per lap. That means I have around 58% of tire after 20 laps.

And I will be doing around 50 laps for full race distance. So that means on my first stint I will be working a lot to move up the grid and defend and that will reach the tire wear of 2.1% per lap.

Trust me this will be the toughest tire wear race I will be racing at for a long time.

 

[Eckhart von Glan]

found a great set by RD member James Yates online and this (after minor adjustments) has reduced tire wear by 50%. I am now confident to run a one stopper, though the last five laps will show a lot of red on the little screen to the right of the driver. I will also avoid starting with full tank which makes for a much better weight distribution in the corners. The consistency I gain (no sudden shift of weight going into the turns from time to time) easily makes up the extra time for refueling 30l more at pit.
Had a nice testrun yesterday evening, basically all set and ready for Sunday.
So excited to do some WTCC racing again, for me this is the backbone of the Race-series.

 

[Hugo Gonçalves]
