I watched the incident between snake and Chev near the end there, from my replay, it looked like Chev turned into the side of snake,(snake 3/4 car length in front) didn't look like major contact but Chev bounced out to the right and onto the beach. I'd say lag was the major factor there.

Funny thing was, my car didn't recieve any contact on my screen whatsoever, I didn't feel any hit's or anything, I just heard a bang and Chev was off into the sand, bit ghey tbh.

So we can do a Max of 10 laps on softs? Does that mean I can just not use softs at all if I wished? I realise you brought in the 2 mandatory stops to prevent people doing a long haul on mediums...but still.

I would think it be like F1 you have to do at least 1 lap on the primes. Anon runs the show tho, im just enjoying sitting back and concentrating on the racing.

Yeah, yeah I get what you mean, but the rules state you must use both tyre compounds. I am happy for you to just run your outlap on softs and go the rest on mediums???

Watched the replay yesterday arvo, man there was great racing going on. Chev and Stumbles at the start, Stu and Tek, and the list goes on. Our little battle at the end was great fun Chev, how you made that car go so well on mediums I'll never know. Well done sir. And btw, I dug deep into my bag marked "90's Aussie Indi" just for you Enforcer!!

He He Ha Ha, after leaving lastnight tried a couple of different room (testing grip levels) went to Snake's lounge and managed to get a
127.183 (on 1st flying lap on softs)
1.28.312 (on 1st first flying lap on mediums)
both times set with full tank and wringing the neck off the my astra, tyres aren't meant to take that sort of punishment. O'well got my wrench monkey pit crew will get some more. :lol:

I think the Astra is the RB7 of this series. Aussie, you may be the Webber. The TT-R is the HRT I'd say.....

I think we can all learn from some of the driving in that video, especially from you. It's a joy to cut and thrust with you boys knowing that lines will be respected and I won't get bumped around for no apparent reason.

Is anyone running the stage 3 engine mods???

I haven't upgraded it cause if it screws the cars power band you can't take it off , and given that with the turbo you already have to use the limiter to meet the regs I don't want to get stuck with it.

The joy of the power limiter is your engine will keep the torque level linear, so go stage 3 and drop the limiter percentage. An example is a GT-R R35 TC has 84kgfm @ 5700RPM at 650PP. At 100% (677PP) it has 85kgfm @ 6300RPM. Additionally with less brute power, you can always drop the Aero numbers and up the HP until you have the right PP.

That is why pretty much everyone detunes for TT
