Give me your PBs at the same track (optimum grip), so I can start to gather data on relative car performance. There's not enough data on RSR with the 1.0 RC yet.Depending on how the splits work out, I'll choose 3 or 4 of these cars only.For example, at Mugello, I have (in seconds):M3 GT2107.4458 GT2106.2MP12-4C GT3108.5Z4 GT3109.2P4/5109.2SLS GT3109.2 « Last Edit: October 19, 2014, 06:00:22 PM by Wally » Logged “You can please some of the people all of the time, you can please all of the people some of the time, but you can’t please all of the people all of the time” marty Hero Member Posts: 3747 Karma: -63 Re: Lap time data for season 4 car selection « Reply #1 on: October 19, 2014, 01:29:18 PM » Would it not be better to give times with a good tuned setup for each car on the track this will show more each cars potential.I can set a server in that for people to run on, for some reason the logs arent working for me when running multiple servers the way I am doing them. Its creating the log files but they are empty which I havent looked into figuring out why.You may also want to consider the evora gtc and 2 eleven gt4. Though the gt4 only has semi slicks with the gtc running tyres similar to gt3.

I've only changed the gearing to one lower on a couple that was set to 320+ top speed. (btw we should put this track into the circulation, there's nothing wrong with it, and it's more accurate than for example Brands Hatch...)M3 GT2 - 1:19:735 Ferrari 458 GT2 - 1:19.392 Mclaren MP4-12C GT3 - 1:20.997BMW Z4 GT3 - 1:21.249P4/5 - 1:20.722 - probably the easiest to driveMerc SLS GT3 - 1:20.299 - probably the hardest to driveInteresting to note, that the Beemers both have a somewhat understeery base set, the p4/5 is completely neutral, the fezza, mclaren & Merc are a bit oversteery or at least happy to step out here and there. So there's that, too.I've also drive the cars in this order, only went back to the first car for 2 more laps near the end to make it a fairer comparison (you learn the track in after a few laps) - and shaved off .5 sec.There's probably a lot more in it, too, for each car...I could see a couple of WR's on RSR, a couple of them are a good 3s faster than my time « Last Edit: October 19, 2014, 02:11:26 PM by Bird » Logged Guybrush Threepwood Hero Member Posts: 2133 Karma: 69 Re: Lap time data for season 4 car selection « Reply #5 on: October 19, 2014, 02:51:36 PM » The good version of Brands Hatch is almost spot-on to me Bird.Here's a comparison for you:Open this video and go to 3:22 in the video:[youtube]jcLjbbiTzww[/youtube]Open this video and then play them both side by side:[youtube]ahYBmQiFe_A[/youtube]The AC version is not exactly the same, but as close as you are going to get without laser-scanning. « Last Edit: October 19, 2014, 02:56:53 PM by Guybrush Threepwood » Logged Bird Administrator Hero Member Posts: 2318 Karma: -666 Ysu Re: Lap time data for season 4 car selection « Reply #6 on: October 19, 2014, 04:39:34 PM » The thing is videos never give me the full picture. I've driven the laser scanned version in iR a few times and it just feels different. But maybe we've drive the wrong version the other night? Still, it's a fun track. But mid-ohio is also very good.

I found the Ferrari a bullet, the McLaren tricky (rear end snappy) and the Merc a boat.I also went back to the first car, because you do go quicker.

I mean the beemers (especially the gt2) feel like a joy to drive for one or two laps, but then you start to push it and you realise that they are pigs - just want to understeer wide all the time There's the ferrari, too; it requires a very light touch, very measured throttle input, otherwise it bites. I'm sure it'd take time to learn it.And from the other side the p4/5 - you can man-handle it as much as you want and it just goes where you point it. Absolutely amazing. « Last Edit: October 19, 2014, 06:28:39 PM by Bird » Logged Bacchulum RestrictedRacing Hero Member Posts: 3403 Karma: 96 Re: Lap time data for season 4 car selection « Reply #10 on: October 19, 2014, 07:02:17 PM » I'll assume you're after sober results, so I'll keep my drunken one's to myself.

Then I can compare your times relative to the Ferrari.
