Zee Oh Em Gee!!111

Zandvoort + Skippy = PERFECT car/track match.  LOVE it.

Still can't break into the 1:59's, but MAN is that a fun track!

24 PSI front, 23 PSI rear, Full stiff RR bar.  Best so far (30 minutes or so of practice) is 2:00.347.  That "parking lot" area after the S-shaped 4th gear "straight" and the fast, 3rd gear right hand sweeper kills me.  Not quite sure how to attack it yet and the Relative tracking suggests I'm losing almost two seconds on that section of track.  

One of the guys in my open practice session posted a 1:55.XXX.    :confused:

Wish they'd bring the circuit back to the F1 schedule.  It's like a mini Spa.

(Sorry I missed the AH race... had errands lined up on Saturday... will start some oval practice this week... glad fun was had by all).

First pole position last week in the Skippy at Seca.  Of course, my 17 second lead wasnt enough... I needed 18... and got a wall.  Still finished 7th after waiting almost two minutes for a tow...

What is the difference between the Rookie, "Regular" and Advanced Legend cars?  I confess Ive not driven any of them.  Not really an oval guy.  Only watch NASCAR when they are at the Glen or Sears Point and the teams bring in their road course ringers.

The Rookie Legends car is fixed and has a rev limiter. The Advanced Legends car does not have a rev limiter and is only fixed in the points races. There used to be 2 different points division for the 2 cars, but when they came out with the Street Stock they got rid of the Rookie Legends and only run the Advanced Legends with a fixed set up. If we run the Advanced Legends at Char. in a hosted race it will not be a fixed set up and the cars are much faster than the Street Stocks. Set up's aren't a big deal, if we run those DimeBag and I have set ups for anyone that needs one.   :cheers:

I'm pretty much done racing the Skippy. I've manage to get within less than 1% of the fastest times and I'm bored with baby sitting the bloody thing.

Yes.  I've been testing all sorts of setups.  Down into the 1:59's at 'Voort in the Skippy and trying for 1:58's before I race.  Current qualifying time is, if memory serves, 1:59.125 or thereabouts. 

On the Mustang, I actually did not "feel" much of a difference, but gained about 2 seconds at Summit.  Damn thing still feels like such a pig after the open-wheel cars.

Speaking of which... I still do test runs with the Star Mazda just because I like it... although I wonder if there is any talk about it being modeled incorrectly?  Again, if memory serves, the current Formula Mazda config (2010) should have no-lift up-shifting but that doesn't seem to be the case in-game.
