No it does not. It just means that the other GT3 cars are matched to the Audi instead of the Mercedes.

The Audi remains relatively the same, the rest of the cars gained/lost speed, downforce, wing settings, etc.
It’s testing and deiving various cars see what car you prefer this BOP. But from what I’ve read most cars seem to be more equal then the previous BOP (Mercedes cup)

I will have to try my Audi again, see if they have fixed the instability issues

It’s still squirmy, you have to have a steady foot out of the corners

 

[2scoops]

Why have they made it so unstable compared to the other cars

Why have they made it so unstable compared to the other cars

The rake on the Audi baselines (pre- and after BOP) changed a good 15-20mm
Combine that with very stiff rear springs make the rear quite "unstable".

Why do it though, it's ridiculous, the car is ruined

They want you to buy new cars. You have to go with the flow

It's better than it was, just the baseline set up isn‘t great as it has an extreme amount of rake which really unsettled the rear

No. @2scoops you need to buy more tracks and cars

The Audi is a joy to drive, it does have a bit of rear end float if you enter the corner too quickly, but it really doesn't need much steering angle to get it into the corner. I've not driven it much in anger before, but it's certainly on pace, you just need to learn a driving style to extract it. I'll have to get round to trying the others.

Meanwhile Germany leads the rankings of most money spend on iRacing without racing

I didn't expect that. Well done haha

Audi is not broken plz. Baseline is sooooo much better than it used to be but you have to be a lot smoother, brake a bit earlier and turn in quite early. Then modulate the throttle on corner exit, your not able to just mash it like in some of the other cars.

So it was broken before then?

(I'm just teasing by the way, before anybody gets their knickers in a twist)

 

[ramiboo]

Everything is broken, The wing doesn't make a difference, the camber has no effect and even the dampers don't match the spring rates. Please for your own sanity, try to avoid iRacing for at least this year.

On the plus side, they've added a roof cam so @miagi can come try it......

Yeah was broken before hahah

But that's impossible surely? I thought everything was perfect in iRacing World. I mean, OK, so seeing Yul Brynner as my pit lollipop guy did make me nervous (not least because he was wearing a Stetson instead of a safety helmet), but everything was so perfect, surely there couldn't be a malfunction somewhere...

I just bought Sebring + AMG GT3, feels very nice, definetely up for 12h Sebring. If any of the teams would maybe take me please

Nothing is perfect anywhere. The day something is perfect, I will be amazed

I thought suggesting that Yul Brynner (famous for playing a robot gunslinger in the film Westworld, a place where robots act out roles and nothing is supposed to go wrong) was my lollipop guy might have been the giveaway that I wasn't being entirely serious
