We usually test on Nords due to the vast variety of corners, straights, climbs and slopes. You will find our theme is Old vs New and surprisingly, these have been the best matches. The old (Lotus 49, Cobra and yellowbird) are fast, loose and driving style is suited for those that like it raw. The New (Mclaren 650S, BMW and the SLS) offer better handling, later braking and tighter cornering.Lotus 49 to the McLaren 650S RUF Yellowbird vs Mercedes SLS Cobra vs BMW M3 E92 Step 1 These matches, we think, will be worth a try in a full race environment.

That's already quite a variety. It's not about finding the fastest time a car is capable of, it's about sticking a bunch of different people in the cars, that represent the kind of mix of people you get in a league (which is what the RSR times give a good indication of) and seeing in the whole mixed grid of cars and capabilities, which cars are on average competitive with each other. It's not about world record alien times or capabilities; only about 10% of the league is "alien class". As I've said many times before.Its why I suggested the Lambo (its a different car brand and its not the same as 50% of the rest which are Porsches ) as its very close to the others, 488 probably too quick looking at RSR times so not likely worth bothering with it. My initial tests the ruf isnt that much faster around a lap, it is the fastest but also likely the trickiest car as it handles a bit like a pig. At other tracks in older builds the Ruf was 1 to 2 seconds per lap faster then all the other supercars but its not quite as far ahead at this track at least from my first few tests.

There really arent that many laps on rsr on the main official tracks in most of these cars though which makes it not the best and way to decide how they actually compare and only use that data.In terms of racing as long as the fastest guys dont pick the 2 fastest cars then racing should be fun in a varied field. If all the fast guys take a ruf or gt3rs then only people in those cars will be able to challenge them. The rest of the field seems really evenly matched now though the lambo would have fit in nicely just below the top 2 cars.If there is a clear top dog though it will mean if these are the cars for the next season more then half the field will be in a gt3 rs I think. The ruf is faster but its a bit tricky to drive so not likely to be favoured by that many.http://52.65.162.16:50041/lapstat?currservers=XGN%20Tuesdays Logged Joe Hero Member Posts: 2368 Karma: 39 Re: Fun run Mar 7: Supercars at Spa « Reply #23 on: March 02, 2017, 09:15:04 AM » Just based on the fun races I had last night this choice will be getting my vote. The GT3 RS is awesome.

Unfortunatly rsr isnt used as much these days but even if all the league guys set a lap on rsr it would more then doubke the total stats for many of the combos. Its a great resource but with the evolving engine in AC making many older laps obsolete and with so many possible combos its just unlikely to get great data sets beyond a basic starting point for many cars. Simply putting up a server with stracker will get more data then rsr has within a week in most cases.I do really like all the work you do Wally but due to limited use of rsr these days the data is a bit hit and miss in many combos.

Looking just at 26 degree temps and just the top 5% of times since AC 1.11 or so, overall I collect over 17,000 laps from RSR. I'd say that's quite a bit of data!
