that's my biggest problem, there's so many brake lines on here (thanks turn 10 :/ ) that don't need to be its so hard to know when, i tried learning the brake points by with no braking lines, but that lasted 10 turns and i gave up, i had rewind on to see how deep i could go before i had to brake and make the coerner quickly, but i tried about 8-12 times at one coner and gave up :s

What car are you in?

I mean we are hitting high 20's/low 30's in SP1 with a number of cars. It's all about flow and using the correct gears for me. You will be surprised where you find the time

by theboomeranga Fri 2 Nov 2012 - 22:28

i'm starting to get quicker, almost into the 8:03s constantly and could break the 2s soon, i'm stuck between 2 cars, but 1 i can't manage to get it to stay on the track, bit understeery but i dunno how to fix it, but both are quick and i have been told to secrecy on car choice

by F4H Hakkinen Fri 2 Nov 2012 - 22:31

Car: 1999 Dodge Viper ACR
Class: Sp2 PGT
PI: 675
Penalty: 15%
Time: 8:01 (Dirty in a bad way and 8% side aero damage the whole lap)

The car EASILY fits in the PGT build regs. I ran a tune with full downforce and full tire width. I could change the setup and get into the 7:50's easily. I only did 1 flying lap...and I mean LITERALLY one flying lap and it could go down quite a bit

by Ax4x Kane Sun 4 Nov 2012 - 19:49

That's why it isn't in. It's probably too fast.

EDIT: Hooray! 501 posts

If the Vantage and Lambo are @ 660 PI, then the 99 Viper would have to be somewhere near or below that number. Not to mention how much older it would be than the rest of the field.

I understand you lobbying for a Mopar product, but really, trying to lobby for a dominant car? Not gonna happen.

Well no one gave me a deffinite answer on the older viper. But the viper still races, which was my point of bringing it up. I could go down to 660 easily as well if need be. I'm lobbying for a nurb 24 legend that isn't being represented. I know it's too late for the Vln test but it's still possible for the nurb 8. It's just a coincidence it's a Mopar.
