pat if you tell me what tracks have optimal gsc grip, ill donate a good sum

Patrick Giranthon · Jul 22, 2015

Haha. You know, I am glued in Essington with really bad things to fix, putting some infos every 2 minutes about the crowdfunding in 3 major french forums, and managing a league at the same time. Unless you talk about 1 million dollars, I prefer you to test ^^

not sure if this is your area patrick, but when i watched niels video i ASSUMED his one complaint about sudden elevation changes was just one of his typical excuses for his abysmal driving -- however, i have noticed that a little after you crest the mountain, in the 'armorall' section, theres a big drop that really unsettles the car...i dont think this is accurate. if it could be checked & smoothed out a bit it'd really help imo.

There is an agreement with ORSM, road mesh can't be modified. I only modified It to add micro-bumps but cant change more

Yeah, some transitions, undulations and dips seem a bit overdone or misplaced, but overall it's ok and the flow is enjoyable.
My main/only real complaint would be the last Falken turn before the back straight, where it doesn't let you stay close to the right side wall. Instead the road is shaped so that it throws the car too far to the center of the road or close to left side wall. This makes it very tricky to slow down accurately and make a proper entry/exit of that last left turn.

thanks patrick, super-appreciated all the same!

Congrats and thanks Patrick and Alex. Absolutely fantastic track with Super V8.

I have no complaints. I'm very grateful something so good is free! I love how the car gets light on Mountain straight and feels right. Is there any chance of reducing the elevation drop after Armour All bridge please. Oh and some boobs cross the top of the mountain...then it's perfect!
