AC FWD vs RWD@Mugello, Wed 19th June 2024

[HF2000]

Welcome to the RD Racing Club.

This week not a real new track but one of my favorite permanent circuits.
Mugello is often mentioned by coureurs in their top 5 of favorite tracks. It has no really slow corners so maybe the Bimmer will perform better this time.

SPECIAL ATTENTION: in this race the BMW 325i E30 Rally is introduced in the RWD class as an alternative for the Mazda. You have to install it even if you drive another car otherwise you can't join the event. See the event details where to find the mod.

Yeah, that track layout looked very familiar, until I noticed the text .

Here, use this until Han notices:

 

[HF2000]

Thanks guys. I guess I was a bit tired after the race. Track map now included.

 

[Kek700]

On holiday for the next one Han, I am sure the Mazda will do well here. I don't see any real competition from the fwd clan.
Will be watching the next race with interest.

Have a good one, Ernie! And if you are passing the north of the Netherlands, you're very welcome for a cup of coffee!

 

[Kek700]

We are going through there on our next holiday, might just might do that.

 

[maxilogan]

Wow! As I have doubts about being able to join Thursday's F3 race and I know Mugello relatively well, I might think about joining this... I'll take a decision asap

 

[pcmoreno]

only 8 signups so far? Is this holiday season or the Euro 24 effect?

Don't know. Could be both. But there are normally some last minute sign ups.

is the renault there Han?

 

[Dzul]

Man, that Renault 5 is a handful... haha! Don't know if I'd drive it on the race, I'd be a hazard.. managed to tame the E30 but this one will take me a bit longer so I think I'll take a safer choice... for you lot.

 

[HF2000]

I'm sorry. I haven't done that yet. And it's too late now as not everyone will have installed the car in time.
So it will be next week with a decent announcement in the event thread.

guess the Abarths went out of fashion . anyway the lineup is looking better

I was thinking that with such a long straight, Abarths and their turbo would have an advantage, but most probably other parts of the track aren't that good for them

No they didn´t go out of fashion, least one driver is trying to make comeback tonight after recovering LM24...

Wow, LM24 with an Abarth... It must have been really hard!

 

[KDiesel]

Thats why I need some time to recover...
