The 49 is far to hard to get back under control once it's lost traction. For me anyway.Besides I've done a skin for the Tatuus that I know will make me go faster.I'd like to see a few road-car seasons. Where we are all in cars that have limited adjustment.I'd also like to see an open track day where you can show up in any car. Or maybe limited to certain power output.Nice looking skin.

Especially when you're not completely experienced with it like me and for some things it's a bit of trial-and-error.That's why I voted for the L49. It requires the least setup work from week to week With the other cars you can blow an hour or 2 each week just testing different downforce levels.

Or is that what makes it appealing?

Or is that what makes it appealing?Multiple things, but mainly that it's a no frills, honest, simple car (no wings, simple to setup). It's a fun car (once you 'get it'). If you mis-handle it, it bites like a girl It teaches the most important things: throttle control & patience. You can't just floor it, unless you're dead straight. But to get anywhere (even to turn in properly), you need throttle. When you really find your balance with it, it's a fantastic feeling to turn in on balancing throttle & slightly over the edge of slipping.Put this car at mid-ohio, and you have a test that sorts out the real men quickly « Last Edit: July 01, 2014, 03:57:04 PM by Bird » Logged Bruce Global Moderator Hero Member Posts: 3440 Karma: 76 "Look out, I'm comin' through!"

Where every season's points adds up to a super tally or something?

It's Wally who may need the break...Wally should get a red bull deal just so he can keep going 24/7, this will be quite a different season but with so many official cars to choose from I think most seasons will be quite different. Once we get a full gt field then it will be nice to have some mixed car racing, all gt cars are more evenly matched then the grp A vs DTM as are many of the street cars.The Tatuus is a strange car and really needs max speed carried everywhere to go fast and a bit of setup work as it has not much grunt exiting turns.

You also need to plan your corners a bit further in advance with the way you can drift it into the turns. Because of that it's one of the most rewarding cars when you get the hang of it, and one of the most fun to drive.
