I say leave as is and proceed and see if there are any complaints.

I'll wave as you lap me, OK?My lap time in the Ferrari not not a result of these 3 laps online, but I guess 20...25 on top of that offline...just thought you may haven't done so many, which could explain differences in lap times :-)That's the only car I spent some time in worth mentioning. Only done 2 or 3 in the Eagle and I find this thing very fast, but for me it needs some set up work to get oversteering under control. I tried quite a bit on the Ferrari, but ended up with a setup pretty close to default.

When I was racing it was worth around 0.5 to 1 second a lap depending on the car.

When I was racing it was worth around 0.5 to 1 second a lap depending on the car.I think that's still a thing. I don't think it's that severe though. With a shifter, you seem to be able to get through the gears quicker, i.e. you can usually beat somone using paddles off the line with an H shifter.

Try a different time of day and see if that helps.

I think there may be a shortage of Ferrari_312 s.
