I will give all the cars a run tonight, that is after I finish updating the server as I tried getting in and got a checksum missmatch. :) Seems 1.6.3 must have been updated today.

1.6.3
- Lamborghini Huracán rear ligths updated to latest racing specs
- Fixed random bug causing a wrong position in the system message at the end of a race
- Fixed pit limiter "clutch cheat"
- Added new skins for Supra mkIV Tuned
- Added localAngularVelocity and finalFF to shared memory (physics rate)
- acServer : fixed sync message spam
- Corrected Traction_Control.lut files. Initial value must start with 0. Traction control levels are functional again.
- Additional model updates on the Nissan R34 Skyline GTR
- Shelby Cobra model updates
- New Mazda RX-7 Tuned sounds

I ran some laps in the GTR was only a few tenths off the top times in the rx7 but I raised the temp up as Wally said around 30c this round, my laps were also set with 2% less grip so hard to really compare against those times with more temp but less grip which may equalize things a bit, with the higher temps the GTR will eat front left tyres after a few laps it seems but it is easily the quickest off the line and is great out of slow corners here. It just needs some patience with these long slow corners to wait for the throttle to avoid understeering wide and once the LF gets a bit hot the last turn especially its much slower and prone to understeer into the sand.

Maybe it would be good to have 4 short races so people could run 1 in each car to test them all out.

But if the races are too short people won't get a chance to get to grips with the car. :-\

The races are already pretty short at only 10 laps so with 63 second laps just over 10 minutes each as is, wouldnt need to shorten them maybe just add 1 more :)

I'm also allowing some practice/qually time before each race, so 4 races might be a stretch. Interest usually wanes on these fun run nights, so I reckon 3 races will be enough. Just choose your 3 favourites. You can always do offline practice beforehand.

I dont think there is any point running the toyota anyway so no real need for 4 races for me at least. The other 3 are relatively competitive though even here the rx7 has a bit of an edge the nissans can get a lap time if you squeeze them hard enough.

Being a "waner" 3 sounds good, have a run in 2 of the cars, very enjoyable to drive... So far.

Yeah, if the poll ends up really close, we'll go with the open wheelers for a change from the GT86.

I won't be racing. I can't spend money on things I don't want, even if it is peanuts, It means I can't buy peanuts.

Have fun all.
