BMW Z4 sucks around here. Can't get the power down and when it's not understeering it's oversteering. Crying or Very sad

Hit a 1.40.9 in the Aston with the Silverstone setup. Going to play with the setup and knock off as much aero as I can get away with.

Not sure the Aston will hit 170 down to the hairpin, if the Corvette is managing that its borderline overpowered.

I was considering to bring the Panoz in for a second series if one were to ever come around.. but now....

And correct it's not, It's something that looks MUCH nicer. Twisted Evil

Having traction control on doesn't mean you can floor it out the corners. You should apply the same throttle control skills you use when you're driving without traction control.

The reason this car needs traction control is because of the grip handicaps mean that little things that are impossible to react to (such as wheel spin everytime you upshift below 4th gear) are controlled. If the littles 'TCS' sign pops up out of a corner inbetween gear changes you're accelerating to hard, except possibly at the very start of the acceleration phase, again because of the grip handicaps. Also, set your diff somewhere between 20% and 30%.

Hope this helps you find some more time Smile

Cant get any faster than a 1:43.8 with the Silverstone Tune at Hokenhiem. Hoping to get at least mid to late 42's with a proper tune.

1:39.666 CL-E-E-EAN! <3 160 down the straight though... Might need that to be sorted out

Oh, sorry! Embarassed

If you're faster with traction control on I'd recommend running it for now, but I'm usually ultimately faster without it on. Just use what you feel most comfortable with Smile

Managed a 41.5xx after a few days off from Forza Smile

my team mate II AntR II insists there's more time to be found but I'll be damned if I know where to start looking...
