Pagani Huayra

[Stelios]

I can't put my finger on it as only done around 10 laps or so as been a little busy, To me it feels like you can feel the sidewall flex more etc.

Funny thing, i only tested the new build for 30 minutes or so but i get the same feelings, better FFB , better feeling of the tires... weird

I quote myself:
My impressions :
The Huayra is awesome, really nice car.
I think somehow the FFB is more detailed?
I can now catch slides all the time, where previously i didn't.

None of those cars are as fast as this one. Only cars faster than this it looks like for road cars are the 918, and P1. The La Ferrari isn't out yet so we don't know and the new Koenigsegg Agera R. It's more than likely in the same class of speed.

So what I'm saying is with that much torque going to two wheels it's not going be easy to drive. It's not your everyday sedan. although since it is softer and can take that bump at the start/ finishline at Imola, it's going to roll a little bit. The original Zonda from what I've saw in videos rolled. But the R version is very stiff.

First, i would like to clarify that this is not a "Kunos failed with this car" just discussing the particularities of this car.

I didn't say the 12C, GT3 or the 458 are as fast, though they sure are closer than a Z4, i said they feel stiffer (i would expect the P1 to be stiffer as well).

The thing about the Huayra is when you are braking for T1 at Nurb you have to be very gradual with how you "introduce" your braking, if you stomp it all the weight goes to the front and you are in deeeep trouble,
This of course happens on quick changes of direction as well.

What i'm trying to say is that the body roll is what makes this car a bit "temperamental", it has grip, it definitely can take corners at very high speeds, but if you drive a little too agressively... poof... this grip dissapears.
Stiffer cars provide a more predictable, stable platform in this instance.

Other than that i can drive it, i don't find it hard at all, i just had to adapt to it's nature.

Can't wait for the Huayra R

@ Leonardo,

Add 3 more ticks of toe-in to the front end of the Huayra and you can stomp on the brakes as hard as you like. Also drop the tire pressure on the front end by 3 lbs and add 4 more ticks of negative camber and you can throw this car around the track all day long (or at least until you run out of fuel).

Hope this helps.

Before you even said anything, i went with toe in at the rear and it did minimize the rear movement under braking, though it made the rear breaking traction on the exits a bit more extreme.

Again, it's a great car and i enjoy it (not as much as the Zonda R though) it just has some quirky characteristics... mainly because it's a road car not a race car, it's not even the extreme version (i'm sure there's gonna be an R version coming in the future).

You're like took all the pieces out of the car and put them back while i haven't yet made the maiden lap

Nice info's

It's good to understand why you just spun out
Otherwise...

I do like some negative rear toe on this car! (-0.04)

Tire pressures around 25 with Topgears, too much camber makes the car more nervous. I use around -1,6 to -2.0 front and -0.9 to -1.3 rear.

 

[Joco Gorenc]

On that note, I just did a WR at Silverstone, but using -3.3 front and -3.7 camber at rear.

So overall more camber = more lateral grip but car maybe becomes more on-off

I think it's a shame this car has no road tyres available like the other supercars - it makes powersliding and drifting much more difficult and less impressive. It is a road car after all, surely it should have road tyres available?

 

[Stelios]

I think that those are the road tyres for this car. Let me go check at my garage and i will let you know.

Sorry for post in this topic, but someone know the name of this track ?

I think semi-slicks are the only tyres available for the real car as well so...

According to Pagani, they offer road tyres as well:

"As first equipment we offer to our customers three different types of tires, all of them omologated for street use: Pirelli PZero, Pirelli PZero Corsa and Pirelli Pzero Trofeo"

PZero is the road tyre.

Here's a lap around Imola with modified setup as follows;

Tires: Top Gear
Pressure LF: 22 lbs Pressure RF: 22 lbs
Pressure LR: 25 lbs Pressure RR: 25 lbs

Camber LF: -2 Camber RF: -2
Toe LF: 3 Toe RF: 3
Camber LR: -0.9 Camber RR: -0.9
Toe LR: 14 Toe RR: 14

She's still lively around the corners but very manageable.

Note that I'm driving with a keyboard so I don't have the same degree of control over throttle, braking and direction that I would have if I were driving with a proper wheel and pedal setup.

Enjoy.

Wow, nice one, I would probably go off in the first corner if I tried driving using a keyboard.

not sound of turbo

because it`s still work in progress, it even states that in the release notes. It has been said numerous times that all the sounds will be optimized over time. I suggest you catch up with information at http://www.assettocorsa.net/forum/index.php

 

[DennS]

Just had the chance to try this car and wow easily my favourite street/supercar in AC... You can do things with this car which simply shouldn't be possible, crazy... And with the Top Gear tyres it is just insane, after 5 laps in Imola I did a 1:45

PS.: Mugello is made for this car

 

[gerard27]

where is sound turbo?

 

[Stelios]

It is missing along with the language called english in your posts.
Really, these forums require to post in english, and doing a google translate for EVERY SINGLE ONE of your posts is not good imo.
