[Matheus Machado]

In with the 458

 

[Jaime Aleman]

Please put me down for the Chevy

 

[Chark]

Interesting choice of track there! I'll go with the 458 please.

 

[Alyosha]

Ferrari for me

 

[Si]

in work! hope you have a great event!!

 

[Andre CZ]

Hello...i try Chevy...

 

[Asterix]

M3 for me please.

 

[Si]

Looks like I will be home in time....I will try a fezza

 

[Asterix]

I can't get on with the Ferrari - I've tried but it's not happening.

 

[Ramon Salles]

In M3 please

 

[Chark]

I can't get on with the Ferrari - I've tried but it's not happening.

Yeah, I can't quite understand how to drive it. I seem to lose the rear end on almost every exit of corners. Anyone has some general setup tips for that 458?

I'm just as fast in the Ferrari over one lap but I have zero confidence in racing in one. As you said, it's very waggy at the back and trying to dial it out really compromises the car.

I guess it suits some people's driving styles, but not mine it seems - strange, as I like my cars quite edgy.

 

[Si]

I find the Ferrari quite grippy. My only gripe is the brakes. I find them too easy to lock up.

 

[Lorenzo Bonder]

Being quite honest here chaps. All cars will have the risk of locking the brakes, I've tested the M3, this track you need to be very sharp and smooth to avoid brake locking.

I don't know if brake temperature are simulated, but tyres temps are, and this track makes it almost impossible to warm them properly. So it's easier to lock brakes and lose grip. Don't get me wrong though, it's a club race, so anything like that is to be taken a challenge! (and not like a problem)
If we don't race different tracks and cars we're not used to now, when would we?
