Eat it watching the v8'sYou can also just check what lame attempt Phil makes in his sig next at trying to "not" be toxic. Just amazed someone that has so many issues with something and does their best to encourage said issues. Maybe to see the other face some may need to look in the mirror. « Last Edit: May 21, 2017, 11:09:29 AM by marty » Logged Bacchulum RestrictedRacing Hero Member Posts: 3403 Karma: 96 Re: May 23 Fun Run - Lotus 98T at Silverstone 67 « Reply #18 on: May 21, 2017, 10:53:22 AM » Logged 2+2=√16 Gratulin Hero Member Posts: 2159 Karma: 44 Re: May 23 Fun Run - Lotus 98T at Silverstone 67 « Reply #19 on: May 21, 2017, 01:27:23 PM » Thanks. It's gotta be the boost. Off the line I control revs and also use clutch to control the launch but I am occasionally snapping sideways after I change to 2nd. So reducing boost will make that more manageable. Now to map the boost buttons to the steering wheel...

So reducing boost will make that more manageable. Now to map the boost buttons to the steering wheel...Its a car you do really need to map buttons for boost up and down, race start full boost will just give more wheel spin so best avoided and finding a boost level your comfortable with off the line should help.During the race you will want to manage the engine more then anything, they used to change engines for each session in these and even ran 2 engines in qualifying. Bringing it back in new condition means you havent pushed it enough but in a longer race you need to save boost up for when needed and maybe force those your chasing to use more then they want to give you the edge at the end of the race.This sort of racing adds a bit to it and in the LMP1 cars its similar but there you just get more boos every time you brake or next lap, here you get 1 engine and need to make it last to the end. 100% can do 2 flying laps but do that in the race you will have nothing left for the rest of it and be a sitting duck to anyone that catches up so it makes for some fun strategy.

It doesn't matter if you're unprepared, it's just to give people a taste if they are actually going to like to race this car. So race 1 - 98T. Race 2 - Exos.

Not a big fan as I spend to much time hangingon to the car and less time racing people. Needless to say I had to many spins in this one.Exos - certainly easier to drive, but you can lean on it and I think there would be much closer racing in this one.In the Lotus I was at the back of the field, in the Exos I was coming 4th until a spin . . . so you can see my preference!
