AMS2 GT1 (3x 20m sprint) @ Spa historic => Thursday 25

Please tell me what you prefer going forward. Fixed or free setup?

Since I rarely touch setup except for fuel, I'm biased towards fixed, but I appreciate that some users want at least to be able to change things like the roll bars to make cars a little more drivable according to their style

As the base setups are not so bad I think we get closer racing this way so I'd prefer that. I had a great first race and was surprised to get a podium. Ernie did his best to catch up and take it from me, but being a gentleman racer didn't try an ambitious move at the end of Kemmel, thanks I appreciated that. Second race at the same place I got punted from behind and didn't have the heart to carry on. I was tired at that point anyway. The GT1s however are fabulous machines and their implementation in AMS2 is top notch imho, and feel even better in the beta soon to be released this w/e. Thanks Guido, keep em coming.

Ah, that was you me and Lloyd. I think Lloyd got way more speed from the slipstream than he expected and ended up coming in a bit hot so it turned into ten pin bowling

Agree Neal (Nepal). I also found they were surprisingly close this way. Porsche being way faster on the straight but loosing some in sector 2. Overal the Porsche was faster. I did however hear many Porsche drivers complain about tyre wear where the MacLaren seemed to not have that issue at all. We are goung to capitalize on that. Tyrewear will be x2 next race. See you in the last 10 min team Porsche

Went for hard tyres in the Porsche, was okay with that, even though they were blueish green.

@nepal roade Hi mate, sorry I think it was indeed me that smacked u both.

Sorry about that didn't mean to end your race, I did get caught out with how fast we where and 2 cars a head in the breaking zone.

As thursday's racing is still pretty fresh and the new update is now installed, I'm going to have another go at it on the same version of Spa to see how it compares. I still don't have my beloved historic Spa but the new physics/FFB developments have felt even more informative as I've tried them in the beta.
wow, they are even better than ever, more informative, more confidence now the drive train changes too just make it so much more ... not sure what words to use. haha.
