Wally, another thing, are you aware of the high fuel consumption of the Volvo? It burns more than double than the BMW  635 Grp A. The Volvo is the fastest car for me, but fuel consumption puts me off a bit. I don't think you'll get through race 2 without re-fueling. Would you consider making changes there or are you gonna leave it the way it is? Again, whatever you do is fine with me, would be just helpful if I knew when picking a car. Sorry, you may have discussed these things when doing the fun runs, but I missed them of course.

Wally, I noticed last night that at least some of the group C cars are a lot more powerful than group a ones. When it comes to top speed the BMW 635 group C is restricted by its gear ratio on faster tracks. Other group c cars may have the same issue. Are you aware of that? If no, would you consider making changes to them? Just like to take that into the equation when deciding what car to pick.

I just got a checksum.
There had been a track update. I've updated the track on the server to match the RD download.
Ok, all good now...it's working. Thanks. Done some laps in the BMW and thought that thing is really fun to drive, but challenging. Then the Volvo...yeah, a lot easier to drive and faster as well. The Toyota Supra is very fast too...gotta try the Jaguar (best looking) next...hmm, if the Volvo wasn't so ugly...

Here are the average of the top 3 lap times of each car at Mugello and Winton.

Awesome! Cheers Wally, that table helps a lot and will save me a lot of time working out what car to pick.

126
hey Wally, can you let me know where to get the cars from, please?
I checked the car dealer...there are so many cars and different groups. Guess there will be differences in performance. Can someone please give me a hint which ones are rather a bit faster?

127
will do,  get well soon Wally
Too many sheeple...
[Just noticed Phil's signature and couldn't resist...haha]
Anyway, guess I'll be back next season. Get better soon, Wally.

Hey Wally, lots of real life distractions atm...will join in race 2 or 3.
Have fun  :)

Australian Assetto Corsa League, Tuesday nights / Re: S33 Car Poll

Not sure if I'm getting this right, but I've got the impression that a number of people (me included) haven't done any or very little practice in the Lotus.
It will be interesting to see (if that's the case) how it affects a race where we're all sort of equally prepared...or equally unprepared...possibly stretch the field a bit...less mistakes as well, which may result in less close racing.
So I believe it's difficult to compare the race in the beamer with the Lotus one. Of course I understand that the beamer is not popular, but that's another thing.

You know how many laps it took just to match Bueller's time!

Yeah, just got a bit excited...it's a very rare thing I'm finding myself on p1 on the server...Freezer spoiled it in the meantime of course.
It's a challenge keeping the rear end under control, but, still, it's a lot easier than the 98T I find...it should get us some close racing...and a lot safer starts too.

131
Mael, just letting you know you're a bit slow  ;)

[yes, I know, I'll get punished for my bragging...haha]

However, I put on my Momo Mod78 for the beamer...seems like it's made me faster  :)

This car is not a good car for a default setup season imo.

Disagree.

For me this is an especially good car for fixed setup. The reason is a decent setup with the Lotus 98T can give a driver a lot of extra speed, spreading the field out even further.  With slower easier cars like the upcoming BMW M1 changing the setup doesn't really matter, there are no real advantage to be found.



Waiting for the counter argue Killa  :P

Hmm...the tricky question is, 'what's a decent setup?'
Joe says 'default is great', I say 'this car is uncontrollable'. Of course Joe is right because he proves he's faster on default.
Guess basis for a fun season for me is some good close racing and that I actually manage to keep the car on track and cross the finish line.
The option making changes to the setup would help me keeping it on track...that's usually at the expense of the car being willing to turn in easily, max speed in fast turns and top speed.
I'm sure it's not just Joe, who wouldn't like my setup.
However, it helps me finishing the race somewhere in the bulk...whether it's on the podium, 6th or 10th...doesn't matter.

So I disagree on the extra speed thing...making the rear-end more stable usually comes with undesired side effects.  :)

133
I wasn't as slow as I was expecting to be, but I lacked consistency...was affected by mistakes of others and made mistakes myself.
The starts were just a mess...actually pure luck that I didn't contribute to it.
This car is not a good car for a default setup season imo.
So I got a bit used to it, but I don't think it would be my pick for a season.

134
I find this track isn't good for this car...barriers and walls are way too close to the track  ;)

135
Default-Joe hasn't put up a time yet...wonder if a 1:24 is possible  ;)
