Andrew Harper · Dec 31, 2015

Was good to see a large grid of cars for a club race, will be interesting to see how the league races go.

With regards to myself I'm still pretty hopeless in these cars, I need to train my brain to try and not drive like I normally do!

I like a race car with a lot of front end grip and these cars just don't have it, I keep ploughing straight on into the corners and lose too much speed. On the fast left right on the back straight I was having to brake otherwise I turned the wheel and the car simply went straight on, tried different lines, different settings, different steering lock in settings (as I'm using a 200 degree wheel) but the car just won't make the corners, so I get slower and slower!

I know I'm rubbish I'm just venting my frustration!

Will keep on trying though, just need to get my head around these cars

Well done to the podium finishes

I stole / borrowed a setup which was a goid second or so faster than my setup

Thank god I'm not doing the league. Don't have the pace, time, or patience to drive around these cars. Sorry Nick for my complete retardness and stupidity. Am I the only one who prefers FWD Touring Cars than RWD Touring Cars?

Andrew Harper · Dec 31, 2015

Yeah go on, sign me up, so far I'm guaranteed a podium

Will be interesting to see how many last the season my friend. They certainly require a different driving style which I don't have at the moment......

I'm not the sort to walk away from a challenge though, will do my best

Nice one Andrew, the sort of reaction I expected to see. I can adapt my racecraft to things easily, but I'm so busy with RL schedule that in the end I have bare to none time to concentrate in these cars. That's why I'm commentating the series instead of racing. I'm no where close to competitive. Also I have other major plans for next year.

Hey have to change this, i'll probably only make it to the 2nd race!

Tks!

Queequeg · Dec 31, 2015

That's true, not quick and easy to learn how to get the most out of these cars. Looking forward to your commentary though!
That said, what am I doing here? I should be testing, training..

Dennis Phelan · Dec 31, 2015

Ssooooo much better than yesterdays cars. Still a handful but you could get a good "grip" on them. Good racing for a small crowd.

Happy New year to all!
