Does DRS work on every straight on this track, or is it placebo?

 

[Calum McLure]

Sorry I'll not make this, need to go out and pick some stuff up. Apparently I'm going to have a productive day

 

[Bram Hengeveld]

Guys the practice session on the server seems missing so ill extend the qualy to 55 minutes so you have two sessions combined.

 

[MTL ka8]

Ok.... I was worried what's wrong

 

[Roy Magnes]

This is the final 2 laps of Race 2, including the photo finish between myself and @Jason :

only in practice i think, just did a test.no drs in quali and race

Reiza appears to work the best here in terms of grip. It's probably excessive even, since the grip seems alien-like at times. FEx and CART are abysmal, understeering heavily, cornering speed greatly reduced, brakes feel underpowered. These two feel broken here. V12 better, but still so-so, it's ca. 10s slower than Reiza in my exp. F3 also understeers more than usual and is more slippery than normal (especially off throttle mid corner).

I think the track would probably need to have the grip revised or optimized to be compatible with different cars...

I was really enjoying that race until my PC decided to crash.
Hope you all had a good session. It's a fantastic track and the lap times were very close.
Congrats to the winner/s.

 

[Andrew Harper]

Apologies @Bram Hengeveld

Don't know what the issue was but I was extremely slow in a straight line! No acceleration at all.

Restarted the game and the issue was still there, checked pedals they were fine.

I was only touching 90mph on the straights and not getting into fourth, really odd.

Very sorry I was going to try the second race but then realised it was a reverse grid.

Hope you guys had fun anyway

Sorry, just noticed in the track thread there's another update that needs to be manually installed. Didn't have that installed during testing....

I don't know if that update is already included in the download file or not. Do I need to install that update in Rupes reply in the track thread manually ? Does it affect the grip? @Nox

 

[Dan Allinson]

Really enjoyed this mornings racing thanks guys. I tried a couple of new things with setup and the car felt balanced and quick which up until now ive only had one or the other.

Race 2: Apologies Lars ive just watched the replay and I clearly didn't leave you enough room under braking along that back straight.

We move forward and sign up for the next one

 

[Nox]

I believe the update is already included in the first download; i.e. the resource was updated to reflect the update. So no need to re download it.

 

[Jan Mikuž]

Yeah, i thought so, thanks. I've sent a "nudge,nudge" to Patrick in the track thread to maybe have a look at the grip.

 

[Lars Johansson]

Thank´s guys and Dan! I missed the start in the 1race lucky me i wasn´t alone Roy made the same mistake so i could race with someone we hade i good fight
Race 2 Nice start holding my position after some laps Austin Catch me did overtake in a turn that surprised me saw him a Little bit to late turn in to him but i let him pass after that we had a nice fight 2 the end really fun races. Slippery cars the first laps but then it was stable, must race again soon.
