Might be a little late to the party, but I should get on-line during qualifying. Does anyone already know how much fuel these things will need for a race? I have just downloaded the car and checked I can see the server, but I'm unlikely to get time to drive it until the race tonight

I'm probably going to miss the next two Wednesday evenings too RL is a PITA at times

Hiya Scott - I think it's going to be 15 laps (14.7), I've reckoned on 41ltrs so will probably go with 43/44 to be safe for the first race.

I'm totally lost with setup for this car, even though I love driving it! All I've done is lower the rr ARB to 1000 and lowered the rear height by one or two clicks, from memory.

Hope you can get a bit of practice, see you later

 

[GeekyDeaks]

Thanks @Medilloni - that's a big help. Fortunately I know the track, so only one thing to learn - I'm guessing this won't have as much trouble getting up the hill as the transit did though?

I'd like to sign up for this one please.

The Nürburgring is a great track in my opinion, but always in the shadow of it's bigger brother.

I only drove the X-Bow GT4 when it was first released and despite it being more fun than the usual biscuit-box handling KTMs I could never get any temperature into the front tyres. I tried running all the TC & ABS modes, adjusting the tyre pressures, the toe etc., but I never found a solution. Anyone got better ideas?

Hmm, I'm getting 13 laps - one of us is doing something wrong (25 minutes, just a teensy bit under 2 minutes per lap.) And I am expecting 35 or 36 litres to do it.

Yeah, me too. Very much hoping that the default is pretty close to optimal!

Nope, but happily the blue colour that AC shows when the tyres are a bit below the optimal window is really pessimistic (i.e. the tyres aren't necessarily losing that much grip).

Welcome Joey, good to see you

I concur with my learned colleague Neilski, fronts always seem to be blue though grip seems OK
