    not really !

    V8 felt pretty good, both the open wheelers we used one tried to kill me a few times, and the other turned in really weird but that was probs because i am yet to do the ffb settings

    Just took the V8SC for a few laps to familiarise myself with it again. Absolute piece of poop.

    Pros:
    V8
    Australian
    Pretty quick

    Cons (Basically everything else):
    Awful handling
    Terrible brakes
    Unstable
    The list goes on

    o_O other than the long braking zones and short gear box i thought it was just ok......im not a huge fan TBH, but like every other car i have driven takes me a while to come up to speed.

    Turn in is really bad and it's too tail happy coming out of the corners. Braking zone is about 500m. Someone mentioned the Gumpert Apollo last night so I took that for a spin too, not a bad car at all, pretty fun. I also did some laps in the Formula Gulf which is actually a really fun car to drive.

    The more of a challenge the better i say. I have done 3, 1000km races in it, albeit tuned rooms and i found it great to drive once you get your head around its many shortfalls. Even @Kart.no.1 had minimal whinging about it!
    Even so i am up with whatever you choose

    V8SC = turdcar

    I like the IDEA of the car, being an Australian V8 and all. But in REALITY it's crap to drive and there are many other cars that are better and more fun.

    Maybe @stucar17 would let div 3 run stability control for the v8.

    I've only done a few laps in the v8 but i didn't find it too bad. Will try it again tonight if I get on.
    7 new tracks and Sierra @dj2ca has some unfinished business in that car

    Yeah it's pretty fun. A bit tricky on cold tyres but what car isn't. I drove the Formula C and found it to be a little on the "safe" side. Formula B is pretty fun and very quick but you need to take care with it because it can spin, that's just a matter of getting used to it though. The Gulf though, I've really started to like it. I'll be getting on at some point tonight too.

    we could also 'perhaps' run something like the gulf this season (open wheeler) and lock in the V8 for what will probably be the final harrah before PCARS 2 hits ? All open for discussion at this stage
