Cars VRC American Racing Championship

The car nosedives very very heavily over the jump, why? I get it's front engined but still its hugely violent. From the cockpit it feels like the front gets magnetically pulled down as if trying to to spin the object about its centerpoint.

it's not a bug, it's a feature

Hey VRC, is there a reason the tires on your Chevrette are very soft. The tires only last about 10-12 laps on the watkins glen endurance layout, and at Daytona Road course they last about 10 laps. This car is supposed to do 24hr races right, so will the tires be updated, or is there a reason they are so soft?

Other than that the car is awesome and very fun to drive.

Does it? I was under the impression those IMSA GTO races back then were more loke 60-90 minutes long?

They also did the Daytona 24 and Sebring 12 Hours, depending on the team they would either run a separate front end with lights or just stick some rally style lights on when night came

Yeah, that's what I thought, that's why I'm wondering why the tires are very soft, and don't last long.

Judging by your posting pattern, the next auriel 90 gto wip post will be from in game right?

I wouldn't rely on those apps for the tyre wear, there is a dev app (tyre debug) that gives a much representative value.

when you're not a dev you gotta trust the tools that are available for the "casual gamer"

the apps works for your the Kunos cars, and your other cars, so why wouldn't it work for this car?

Trust the laptimes you are able to produce long into a stint, not the slightly arbitrary colours on a tyre app.

It works, but the point is its just a colour on an app telling you your tyres are not at their best. Are you still able to drive quickly? How is the balance?
These are the factors you should be using to decide whether or not the tyre is ‘lasting’ or not, whether its beneficial in race time to pit or not.

Now i haven't driven this car on a long stint, but i have plenty others in AC, and having some or all of the wear indicators well into red is not necessarily a problem. Often its quicker to do so instead of pitting. With fuel burn in some cars you can lose relatively little laptime despite that app suggesting all hope is lost.

They give a misleading information about tyre wear.

Main reason why we hadn't do that yet is because even if we can hide the lights, those will still "light up". We are talking with Ilja to see if there's some way to improve that aspect.
Anyhow, we are including a optional light cover in next version, coming up really soon.

Haha it's likely we will finish the Prototype series first adding its latest car the "Pavey Longhood".

I don't know if this has been mentioned to you but i get light cones in the cm showroom when i turn on the lights. Lights are covered, but the cone is there.

That's the most native american name i've ever heard for a car
Looking forward to it. Very refreshing to see some high quality, non-open wheeler, kind of modern race cars in ac modding scene recently. Too many vintage cars, too many open wheelers sadly...
