Actually I found the car very easy to drive

I would say trustworthy, not easy... but to each his own.On that, Im amazed how @Steve Le Gallez was able to drive it at 10%TC (how had it on 60/80%). Well done mate, good workout for the DTMs I guess eheheh

Indeed, for me it felt "easy". Super stable, and the only time it felt unsettled at all was at the top of Eau Rouge. It may be the fastest, but for me it's not much fun to drive. No challenge.

Hey JP, thanks for the "plug". I didn't advertise this as it was an experiment without the use of OBS. It's amazing how powerful these laptops are these days.

What did you use, out of interest?

What did you use, out of interest?

I used the record function built into the Nvidia Geforce GTX 1660 TI graphics card, along with Scouts Reality overlay.

That's what I like, a car that's trustworthy, predictable. It doesn't have to be easy, but it must be trustworthy. Which I cannot say for the new 2020 DTMs. But I've only done 8 hours or so in them.

 

[Calvyn White]

Can I use a 2016 ?

Exactly Calvyn, and I agree with you on the 2020 beasts... Far from thrust, I fear to touch that right pedal (I'm considering tampering in some way the pedal course so it doesn't go 100% that easy, some kind of rubber or something... )
They are challenging, I love challenges, but to be fair, I don't trust the damn thing kkkkrrr

Sign me in please, Audi #62

It'd be interesting to put them in a race together to see which comes out on top.

So would I.
So can I take that as a yes that I am able to use the 2016?

Lol, no.

I am proud to say I set my personal record while practicing this track in these cars: 1.9 laps without spin.
These are almost faster in corners than Indy formula.

 

[Jan Larsen]

The corner speed is insane yeah, but the acceleration is also up there. Its like a GT3 car on steroids. You're very busy as a driver driving these rockets.

 

[UMC 22]

Haha, told you! Touchy on the throttle but a beast in the corners. I definitely had to eat humble pie when I said I wouldn't be bothering to buy these things when they were released. I find them really good fun now. Looking forward to Saturday!

 

[Calvyn White]

Lol, no.

No. Well, I suppose you're right I mean if I were you I would be scared (chicken) too if a 4-year-old car beat me. Oh, the humiliation. The finger-pointing of ridicule. I suppose being a staff member in charge of the club has its advantages, one being it saves you from embarrassment.

I've done about 8 laps...

 

[UMC 22]

Mate, you'd probably beat me in an NSU! You're much faster than me on average in pretty much any class. The only time I overtake you is when you're in the gravel. I don't think I've ever done it at race speeds.
