Magic mate. I might be able to spend a few minutes tweaking it

The only way to truly police gearing and aero is to eliminate aero and require a stock gear box. Or race gear box and no restriction.

 

Fun car, but a couple things I saw on track left a nasty taste in my mouth.

I know of one or 2 things i aint keen on, but i view it like i used to view playing golf, im out to beat me. If anyone else wants to cheat, let them, aint bothering me.  As long as im hitting top times every lap (at least as high as i can strangle out of the car) then im happy.

But I don't really want to police things. I assume we are mostly mature races who respect rules of the competition.

 

I will be checking the replays tomorrow. As it's easy to see what cars don't meet requirements. Both aero and box changes will affect the to speed, and Max gear speed

yeah, this too.  Im sure if there is any dubious behaviour it woulnt be more than 1 or 2 and if thats what they wanna do then good luck to em if winning is that important.  The only way to stop any of it is to make everything stock, and if thats the case, we may as well as switch to Horizon.

 

All in all, much better racing today, and the 5% really made a difference, and Shrimp look neutered with 10%.  Next week should be even more interesting lol

I was talking about the aero and gearbox settings and not driving on track since I wasn't clear. You shouldn't get killed on a straitaway by someone with a 5% handicap when you have none. And it wasn't just because of a "run out of a corner". In a few instances I carried more speed on corner exit and still got a beat down on the strait away.

Yeah it will show in the replay as a person with no Aero will have a higher top speed of they are not drafting

Yeah i checked the replay for that and 1 or 2 other things last night cus on my screen it looked liked you steered at him.

 

Looking back at it Sim, you oversteered and Stewie clipped your back end and around she went lol.  Amazng how lag can affect what you see.  

This series could be a close one methinks
