[Jai Spencer]

There must be a sweet racing line that im yet to find....plenty of time to do it though.....if only i wasnt at work!

 

[Mitja Bonca]

Did 1st tests online on the server. Even I was alone, I did 30 laps with full tank. Best lap was last and it was 38.187s. Very pleased with the tyres, only the fuel consumption is very high (more then 4 liters per lap).
After 30 laps I tested 6 pit stops, and didd around 15 more laps with no tyre changing.
What I`ve noticed is, that the tyres are too much durable (in my opinion, if I compare too the real life). 45 laps and the most worn tyre was FR, but it was still 80% good. Isn`t that a bit exagurated?
Who knows how many laps tyres last in such a super speedway in real life? Cause in rF would last for at least 150-160 laps - with no accident of course.

 

[Ryan Callan]

That sounds about right Mitja, the tyres are made durable in real life because imagine if there were high risks of blowouts on ovals?

Also on Superspeedways the tyres will last longer as, despite the high speed corners, they have plenty of time to cool down and 'cure' down the long straights.

 

[Mitja Bonca]

This sounds reasonable. So no more talking about tyres.
Anyone today for a test? I would really like to do a test with some more ppl then just me. I would like to see how the car handles under slip stream, and how the speed rises.

 

[Jai Spencer]

i will be on in an hour or so, i finish work soon!
