Laiders, I was hoping for slow drivers...you beat my time in Race6 by a tenth...I do love that Ferrari, who needs an excuse to drive that. Nice time!
Just signed up for this and simultaneously testing live streaming to YouTube. So if you're bored then you can watch me struggle.
So far we've resisted the urge to pick the Nordschleife for the Time Trial challenge, but peeps keep asking for it (fools! who think the RD will be gentle with them 6 minutes into a lap)... I need some suggestions for a sensible, stable car that a wide range of people can drive and not get annoyed by to set on Nords in the next Championship please guys. Anyone got any ideas?
Nice . I only spent 40 minutes on it, starting on default setup and then minimising the brake and radiator ducts for the final 5 minutes or so. Was good fun though
Aye, similar here. For me it has always been the more interesting part of a default time-trial challenge, getting to grips with an imperfect setup. That and tuning a car has always bored me - I didn't enjoy it back in the days of Indy 500 and I don't enjoy it now. If I'm spending time in the garage, I'm wasting precious track time. I know I can go faster if I spend the time but it's something that doesn't interest me.I don't want to derail the time trial interest thread, so I'll go off topic in my own thread here
I like default setup time trial, and this my reasoning. I'm a 45 yr old accountant earning a nice living and enjoy sim racing as a hobby, I'm never going to be a racing driver IRL, and I don't have enough time for practice to be good enough to make it as a sim racer (and I'm not sure it's possible to earn enough to make it worthwhile yet). I can however get on track occasionally and have a go. What this means is the ability to adapt my driving to an imperfectly set up car is a much more useful skill for me than learning how to set up a car correctly.
