Take 1200 you'd normally spend on a power mod, go to GT Auto, buy a wing (bigger/gaudier/ricier the better imho). Now you have adjustable downforce on this car, up to 30 front & back. Helps in the corners. Now, how an ugly rear wing will give you adjustable downforce on the front of your vehicle... I dunno... but the game lets me do it :)

What happened to the 75k thing?

Well in that case I'm @ 1:58.421 in a naked car with N3 tires.

The 75k thing was GTO's choice.  Funked won that challenge so now it's his choice and he chooses oil change, wash and tyres.  When (;)) I win one my choice will be somewhere in between I think.

I don't care what you pick as long as it's not a car that makes me wanna get out & run the lap on foot like these last 2 choices :)

Put another 10 laps in, and figured that you don't need to brake at all in many of those last corners, which sorta helps to keep the momentum going.

2:02.168

Under 2', here I come!

Takeda FWIW I probably have 1000 laps on this track in different sims, and my best in my first session with this car was 1:58.  So if you can break 2:00 you are doing great.  :)

And Indy, sorry for the misunderstanding about the mods.  Just use a stock car except for N series tires and wash/oil change.  Remember you can't undo lightening and port/polish/balance/blueprint.  :)

I'm also not convinced allowing pad users all the driving aids is a good idea.  I'm currently under a 1/4 second behind Funked using no ASM and TCM at lvl 1 only.  I'll turn em back on later and see how much improvement I get.



Remember I am carrying the 50kg too.

Yeah I know. I've got 3 of these cars now. Stock, Lightweight, & Power. that 1:58 was stock. It's kinda funny, unless you spend *ALOT* this car doesn't get much faster.

2:00.016, hitting the rails once.

I do quite allright until the tunnel,  ruin half of my laps at the chicane, then I have still lots to learn about those tricky last corners.

I did my share of Monaco in the old Geoff Crammond Grand Prix games.  I remember the climb up after the first corner feeling a lot narrower and scary in the F1.

With ASM set to 10 and TCS set to 5 (default) I can't break 1.55.

With ASM off and TCS on 1 I just did a 1.52.933.  


Fine, let pad users use driving aids.....I'm faster without.

1:48.445
1:58.445

And I have done every corner better than in this lap at least once... just can't bring them together in a single one :)

How did you know?

And how in God's name did Takeda get a 1.48?!?
