We are currently experiencing some performance issues with the forum. As a result, we are using the old sign-up method (leaving a message in this thread, saying you wish to race) until these issues are resolved.

What kind of times do you guys run around Mid Ohio? If I'm anywhere close, I may give it a try. I've never driven cars like this.

EIF · Sep 6, 2011

Good question Scott, thinking the same. I downloaded this today and it's fun but very challenging to drive with all assists off, they really can snap without warning under braking.

Evan Madore · Sep 6, 2011

I have done a lot of races in NAGT outside of RD. Each car has its own personality unlike some mods. Pretty much for all cars in this pack, I would recommend throttle blipping like nuts under braking and downshifting. Also, if you have having a ton of trouble, try out the Skyline. It is ugly as sin, but it is 4wd and is the most forgiving (other than the volvo).

EIF · Sep 6, 2011

Yeah thats good advice Evan. My problem is I've been playing F1 mods for too long lol. If I left foot brake I can keep the car steady by bliping with my right but I really need to learn to heel and toe. Whats a competative time around this track, it's the VLM version right.

The Skyline goes through tyres like Cookie Monster goes through Cookies.

Evan Madore · Sep 6, 2011

I have no clue on the lap times yet. I planned to do a few laps tonight if I have time.

Yeah the Skyline goes through tires like crazy, but with a few key setup adjustments and driving it a bit different they can become pretty manageable

Evan Madore · Sep 7, 2011

Ok, did a bunch of laps. I did one hotlap in each car to get the feel of them again, it has been quite a while.

Anyway, here are the times I did. All on default setups, one outlap, one hotlap.

Camaro - 1:27.9
DBR - 1:28.5
CTSV - 1:28.0
Vette - 1:28.0
Viper - 1:28.1
Mustang - 1:27.4
GTO - 1:27.9
996 - 1:28.1
Skyline - 1:27.7

With some more laps, all of the cars could be in the 1:25's. I would imagine a comfortable race pace would be low 1:26's. If it helps, the most stable cars for me were the Skyline and the Viper. The Camaro and Aston Martin were next in line. The most difficult was the CTSV and GTO. The others just fell somewhere in between.

I am looking forward to this one. Hopefully we can get at least 10-15 people in it.
