Don't post your test times if you are going to hide the car. Makes your times irrelevant to pre-season testing/balancing.

Thanks mate , seems im in the ball park but i want to know what that car is

^ I don't even know and we are practically apart of the same team lol

Tesla Roadster is the car.

drake? edit your post plz

im sorry mopar but drake does have a point ,the times are pointless without the car choice.

I'm sorry, but I'm not editing the post. The car is obviously dominant, and to leave it as such knowingly is ridiculous. I would like to think myself above hoarding such information especially when there is plenty of time to have it fixed.

....fine, then I might as well post the whole thing then.

the world can rejoice

i didn't write down time for the other cars at silv cuz I thought it was pointless after testing the cars at nurb.

Just curious about how the points are scored for this, is it the same points for each class, same points for finishing 1st/2nd/3rd/etc in both GT3 & GT4, or is the point scoring different?

I assume they'd be the same, since the total point go towards the World Champ...right?

well looks like everyone will try for the tesla then, i think im gonna keep testing and make sure i get half decent car , thinking the tesla may be affected a bit

Scrap that the tesla is horrible to drive

I suggest the tesla is amended or dropped all together

done. Obviously something I didn't find on our testing.

Got to be with the power handicap not quite being effective enough with the electric and it's dodgy automatic powerband.

great, now I have to find yet another car, but im away to test....

The idea is not to find 'yet another car' that will dominate but that suits you most. And make sure the rest are as quick as one another.

Power handicaps seem to not be as effective on hi revving (read: Hondas) and electric vehicles as it is on lower revving engines (read: Viper/Corvette).

I had assumed that because im not the greatest tuner in the world that someone from a superpower team would be able to match that in another car. I had that car chosen for about 2 weeks now, and spent a lot of time with it. I had already finished a paint on it and everything.

Now because I have exams all this week I won't be getting home until after registration, so I can't go back and test any other cars. I had a backup, but im not sure if that was the best choice.

Needless to say I'm a tad pissed that this wasn't picked up earlier, so now my team is screwed. If a car was that dominate it should have never been on the list. I trust TORA to have everything in order prior to that list being released, meaning all the cars were equal. I thought maybe I hit a sweet spot with the tune and that was why it was much faster.
