AMS2 Le Mans Series @ Spa-Francorchamps - Friday 14 January 2022

[Bram Hengeveld]

Nope, not done any proper testing between the cars. Can't be bothered either as I am okay with the little MRX car, it has provided me awesome races so far

There's already a distinct lack of grip as you crest Raddilion, I do not fancy my chances doing it without a rear wing!

Yeah, I tried it out and it's very sketchy over the top . Good fun though and the duct tape over the pipes made me chuckle. I would need a bit more practice as I found it easy to lose the back-end through Campus for some reason.

I race in VR and have to say the feeling of speed in that thing is just awesome

Yeah haven't done proper testing either to be honest, just focussed on nailing the track with the Sigma, though I did give the GTE Beamer a few laps to see if the AI was just joking with me(I was faster then all of the GTE field in the Sigma) or if I was just that good. Turns out the AI was kidding around

EDIT: Ran some tests, the Duramax is indeed slower on this track by a few seconds compared to the P1. The P1 has about a 10km faster topspeed and actually bounces a bit on the limiter if you drive it right. I also suspect it gets a bit faster out of the corners, it's definitely a different performance compared to donnie park.

Though, The p1 is nimble and light and doesn't feel very planted at all, it can be quite agressive in the change from under to oversteer. The Duramax is the opposite, very predictable and a very controllable 4 wheel slide.

Still going with the P1, I think...

I'm still favouring the view from the MRX, but if I'm the only one in it then I'll switch to the P1

EDIT: I just realised - you are not signed up....

Oh I see, that's weird. I must have forgotten that!

Sign me up in the P2 class please!

you are obviously not paying attention.
you will have to prise me out of the MRX with a crowbar and as soon as you are not looking I'll be straight back in it again...
hehe, I love that little proto' (even more than the baby AJR of AMS1)

 

[Damian Reed]

I'm without doubt faster in the P1, but with the DRS activated it's lethal!!!

 

[nepal roade]

Dee Pee Ai for me on this track Nah, ill continue the fight with Not_him_59 in P2

Really looking forward to this tonight. Hopefully we'll have a similar pace again and a good battle with maybe others too. No problems so far no disconnects so all should be good. oooooh.

 

[Damian Reed]

OK, I can't keep the P1 facing the right direct after about 10 minutes of driving. Even with changing to lean fuel map and turning up tc.

 

[nepal roade]

I am Dutch so yes, a minor incline or something that could be quantified as a hill scares me to bits! It's just... so unnatural

hey, booh!
it's also above sea level.

come join us in the sweet MRX.... just turn the TC right down for extra sideways fun!

I don't think it actually has TC. It says so in the info screen but the TC on the HUD never shows any operation. It also say it has DRS and not Boost on the info screen but the steering wheel has a boost button. I think the config of this car is wrong!

I tried the DPi.These cars are too fast and too wild for me , I am old now and feel better in GT . Next time I take GT.

 

[Noahbet]

Had to switch from GTE since i was the only one. Took DPI then.. wow what a wild car, first time driving it .
Had a few spins but got back to @Bjorn de Haas on the last straight in the last round. Both had a little touch and he let me pass - thank you for that!

Was a fun race! Would have been more fun with some GTEs

 

[Bram Hengeveld]

Brilliant racing again guys, thanks! See you all next week
