    You sir have won this round...

    As for the NSX tho that's a strange case. What's it hitting down kemmel? Mustang is doing 257 and being absolutely sh*t on by most things doing near 264. My - 1 weight drop has actually lost me ground to cars around me too. Need +1 power to be semi competitive....... @JonoStan96

    Adding more weight makes cars slower in S1 due to being slower up the hill, and therefore taking longer to hit top speed on the straight.

    Agreed, after pretty extensive testing last night I can confirm that weight changes on their own make a much less significant difference to overall lap speed than power adjustments do.

    Is it really a surprise that weight changes make less of a difference at Spa than power when S1 and S3 exist as they do? Half the lap time, is spent holding down the right pedal waiting for the straight to end.
    Also with brick aero power won't ever really fix the top speed delta but it can make a car way too fast in S2 with the punch out of corners. I recall a GT6 BoP for N24 that had one car 1.1 seconds up out of the GP section, but after the three super high speed sections on the Nord, brick aero brought the total laptimes back to even.
    Overall BoP on this track produces surprising results as to where time is lost and found, even between cars. I would not have guessed the Beetle could go through S2 faster than the M6 but somehow it can.

    @Storm_SP17 did you turn wear and fuel burn off? Check your PSN inbox

    Don’t forget guys BoP can change more before Saturday, considering we’re finally getting one of these streamed we want a close and exciting race, no one wants to see someone run away with it, I’m doing my utmost to get this thing right with the precious little free time I have lol.

    By the way I will have a lobby open, for those who need to finish off your times, Friday night will be your final chance to do so with me in the lobby, otherwise you’ll have to submit a recording. 09:00 AEDT on Saturday is the cut off for submission.

    Yes





    No seriously, I had 0 / 0 on tyres and fuel for my run. I thought I'd left it on x1 initially myself... but it wasn't.

    I'll give the car another run and compare it to the 911 again tonight, coz pulling 14.9 in the Porsche was definitely a thing, was a couple tenths off Stigs trying out a few other cars post-quali and that was the fastest car I tested that day.

    I'm also trying to finalise my livery in the meantime, it won't be amazeballs but it'll do.

    *While running our respective ballast handicaps.
    Do you need me to just show up to lag out the timing so you can be fast again?

    Had a run in the NSX myself on Gold BOP as I am a Gold driver and managed a 15.6 with a nuff nuff tune on it. It's a strange ride for sure but the pace is locked away somewhere

    What would now be a good target race pace lap time?

    So I streamed my run but for whatever reason my mic was 0.0001mm away from being fully inserted into the rest of the headset so I have no commentary audio.
