AC BTCC Winter Testing @ Oran Park - Sunday 13th November 2022

[Interslice]

Sign me up please Brian. Don't mind which car and no time to test them all, surprise me.

That's a Volvo Tim, to balance the numbers!

I will go with the Primera.
I am assuming the BOP was applied on the practice server.

....and would Sir like a BMW setup to go with that Nissan?
(I'll never forget you did that Ernie!)

Applied BOP will be there after your name and car in the timing screen Ernie. Give me a shout if you want some more

Thought I'd try a 25mins stint in the bimmer this eve.... not saying it's a physical track, but it beats the Cancer Research November challenge for 100 press ups a day, easily
...should have chosen the magic carpet ride of a fwd car

Yes I would John, the BMW definitely drives very nicely here, tempted to go with it.
I am still struggling with this iteration of Nissan Primera.
Really nice to know what the times are around here, Primera is just so aggressive, the BMW is such a smooth ride. My bet is on the BMW with a fast driver will be hard to beat.

PS
Still not sure when I went onto the practice server if the BOP had been applied to the Primera???.

Yes I know I am a thick "O" I am sure it is obvious, but it has eluded me.

Yes got it, I am a thick "0"

No worries Ernie. BOP looks OK. 0.6 second between myself, John and Robert's best times tonight.

Practice servers are down for some maintenance. They will be back up later on.

 

[SimApprentice21]

Again, a great car/track combo. Reminds me of how australia is one of the greatest Lands of motorsport circuits. But turn 1 and 2 is absolutely brutal.
Between turn 1 and 2 my front tires Lose traction extremely. Result heavy understeer. Anybody got some Tips for the right setup tweaks in such Situations?
Btw. I have the bmw

 

[Partick Eaton]

I have the same issue. Brake earlier, change camber and toe in until it feels better.

 

[Alfred Wayne]

I'm starting my braking zone at like the end the pit wall

Between the lack of abs and that little turn into T1, it's a nightmare in the nissan if you get on the brakes hard and late.

Looking forward to the 2x25min races

 

[Kek700]

Please can you change me to a BMW, the only hope I have of completing more than two laps?

No problem Ernie. Hopefully a car update brings you back to it!

 

[Interslice]

Practice server is back up!
