Nothing wrong with the Corvette.

And that wasn't even a very good lap.
With practice, I'm pretty sure I can get it down to the times I did in the BMW.
Standard set-up, all I did was lower the power-diff and pre-load a couple of notches each to make it a bit more controllable.

I don't know if you have time in the coming days, but if so I'll be happy to do some laps with you on the server, and see if I can teach you anything.
I'm out both Friday and Saturday, so it'll have to be pretty late those two days, but other than that, I'm game.

The really sad part?
On Sunday, I'm pretty sure both Ollie and Lorenzo will be doing 2:18-2:19s

Give me 4 hours and I'll give my initial analysis with the default Zakspeed Capri

Not such a fan of openwheelers (how dare you!) so don't have new stuff. Thanks for tagging, merry christmas to all your wheels!

 

[Kenny Paton]

Believe you me, after last night I'm not such a fan either
Have a great Christmas.

Sign me in please Hopefully my bad back will allow me to race for a while. What better than a nice short race at Spa? I'll drive a Hillclimber.

Ok thx a lot Lars and i will choose the Group 5 BMW now. Nobody should say i'm a chicken

@Lars Hansen:

Fact found:

Yes, I beat your time. By 2 seconds.

Yes, a 2.19 is possible. But... No, I can't or won't do it. It's hitting all nails straight, it's physically draining.

@Otune might get that 2.19 on default? Really hard. That car doesn't top 275 km/h on the straight and has the turbo problem, on the core corners of the track.

@Lorenzo Bonder I thought policy here was not to mention lap times for fear of putting off some casual racers? Just wondering.

Actually, he was only responding to my post, so it's my fault.
And you're absolutely right, my bad.

I wasn't dissing the Corvette @Lars Hansen - it's my fave in group 5 !

Yes it's put me off

 

[Lars Hansen]

Well,you've always seemed a little off to me.

 

[Lorenzo Bonder]

@Andy Jackson,

you're right. We don't talk about lap times in race clubs. But I got provoked, you see...

I like the Skyline and the Volvo

 

[Otune]

Just finished having a go with all the Group 5 cars. I started off with only the Fabcar but ended up buying the rest of the pack I'm not normally interested in older cars but I'm glad I tried these, they're a lot of fun.

No comment.

Damn right. Rules are for following, not breaking.

 

[Lars Hansen]

Except for track-limits.

 

[Caramidaru Andrei Bogdan]

So tested a bit, G5 i can kinda keep them on track but for 1h will be murder and the Procar BMW feels so much better at ffb and easier to drive anyone gonna take that?
If not i can go for classics also if anyone is interested
