AC Porsche 911 Carrera 3.0 RSR @ Riverside Monday 22nd February 2021

[Interslice]

Isn't this the car that's actually faster with fulltanks because the weight on the front wheels helps to decrease understeer?

I think that's every 911! The modern GT3 is like that for me anyway. My times are the same at least with 5 or 50 kg of fuel.

Your right Han, a very difficult car, it is going to be very difficult in traffic.
With stone-cold tyres and people wanting to make 10 places in the first corner. mmmmm interesting.

The cold tyres feel ok to me. They're not slicks on it. Maybe I don't push the car hard enough to notice... Personally i find the over pressurised tyres alot worse. I'm hoping with the mature participants of a monday 911 race, that the cold tyres will make people think three times about a dive and have the messers already in the dunes by turn 6!

Is the Singer 911 an option on sgp Brian?

Unfortunately not. I have it on my list dennis! From what I can gather these RSR carreras actually raced here in the 70's. I had plans to add another car or 2 that were easier to drive but they wern't available, so it ended up as the porker cup it is now!

Have you tried the new Caterhams? I must give em a go. Maybe tonight. Lookin forward to the R300.

The r420 is lovely car. We had a great event with it a zaandvoorrrt. Havn't tried the others, will check them out.

Yep 420R is nuts. I'm not into paddle shift though, the R300 is H-pattern. He's also done a 2020 update for the Academy.

Aye the padels are a bit out of character on them. On an F1 grand prix track it didn't feel too crazy, more just understeery. A good training car for that circuit. I'd say anything less twisty than zaandvoorrrt they would be a bit lost.

Wow! Do you have a few pictures from the real thing you maybe want to share here? (no pressure though )

I just have fond memories sorry. I was young and my father took me. Lot of dust and dirt. Also went to some races at Ontario. Another track removed that was shaped like Indianapolis.

Hi lads, I've just added this to the OP. I'll be throwing similar up on the race thread OPs from here on. Cheers.

 

[Reik Major]

Yippi! I just signed up for the fun. Evil track though. Too many corners which don't like me...

I think you had to sign up before the start (practice) of the event.

 

[640er]

I think you had to sign up before the start (practice) of the event.

I think so too, once the server is running it's over... but you never know Maybe that's something to add for the future especially with events which only feature one car.

Ye its locked in now

I would in a normal circumstance keep this private, but this is the worst driving I have ever experienced in race department, ever, ever.
I let Reik go, he is quicker no point in holding him up, then along comes cheating Yohana, I'm on cold tyres taking it easy, got smashed up the back , then again, finally harder still, till I eventually come off.
This is way beyond not waiting, which he did not do, it's cheating on a grand scale.
I'm used to being punted in a lot of races, most times, I get it.
this was so blatant. I would have been quite happy to let him go on the next straight, just wanted a fun race tonight.

Come to think of it, it is the only complaint I have done in the past 5 years.
