AMS2 Caterham Supersport @ Jacarepagua Short, Thursday 21st March

[GeekyDeaks]

This Thursday we are taking the Caterham around the short but sweet layout of the Jacarepagua circuit, which was the final part of the track still operating before even that was demolished to make way for the 2016 Olympics.

Whether you are a rookie racer or a seasoned veteran our casual club races are for everyone and every skill level. We combine fun events with discord chatter and a warm welcome to all our premium members.

Welcome chaps! Sorry for not being able to run anything this week, been a bit busy with work. Hoping to run these for a few weeks if there is enough interest. If you have any suggestions on other tracks you'd like to blast around, feel free to let me know....

Welcome Ernie!

I'll knock up some quick hints after work. I think there were also some slight setup tweaks we found helped tame these things, but that was before all the physics updates so I need to check if they are still relevant or not.

Welcome Axel!

 

[The Almighty Snark]

I love this combo had a fun time doing a few laps as practice. Unfortunately I pulled a muscle earlier this week and after 10 minutes it started to get stiff/achey. Alas, racing tonight is not a good idea yet.

Sorry Ernie, I wasn't able to get on to test properly, but it seems the default setup of these has improved a lot since we last raced.

If you are struggling to get on discord, please let us know.

Ha Ha that was a baptism of fire, you would think I should have know better, Ironically the easiest to drive are more often than not, are not the easiest to get any pace from.
I did a small bit of practice and thought they seem easy to drive, wrong.
It did not help with a small field of quick drivers and me.
After sitting in with Axel in the first race, ( my AMS2 occasionally dumps out of the sim )
Next race I was over 2 seconds quicker and could mostly see were the other second or so was going,
Learnt a lot , thanks guys.
