31  UKAC / UKAC Races / Re: UKAC Season 18 Group C Fun Trophy - R4 - Monza - Nov 30 on: December 01, 2022, 01:40:09 PM +0000
As I said last night, I hate Monza. Everything I tried to give the Mazda more pace just made it more difficult to drive especially at entry into the chicanes and exits, which is basically all Monza is about  Roll Eyes I resigned myself to tootling around with a steady drive and a safe setup but even then found it difficult and frustrating. The final straw was getting the entry to parabolica just slightly wrong and nose planting into the indside armco!

Enjoyed the series though, good to drive the Group Cs even if they are massively challenging for me.

Looking forward to RSS endurance cars. From my quick and dirty testing the Toyota seems to be the strongest by a decent margin regardless of track type while fuel consumption and tyre wear seem to be more or less equal. Not sure if BoPing is able to solve that in a series without nobbling the fun out of the Toyota... maybe Tim can sprinkle some more magic as he did with the potluck series.

Don't worry Monza is a track i hate... It seems to need a car good at everything, soft, mechanical grip for the chicanes, stiff aero grip for the quick corners, a car thats quite pinty and good turn in but one that is stable for the quicker corners.... Which is never going to happen!

These cars are so different from how they used to be. Definetely made worse by driving the track for the first time in RR. Car felt like it had zero grip on default and the rear was all over the place. But the changes i did to the car meant the tyres were wearing so fast I really didnt think they would last to the end, my left rear was flashing red on the mini hud.

Bit of a week to forget on both AC and RR this week.

Couldnt beleive how quick you were all going... Stuck it on 40% boost, but that just make me push it too much, once the tyres started wearing the understeer got worse and lost concentration being on my own and a few crashes and just felt a bit disapointed. On 80% boost the car was pretty amazing and loved the practise sessions, shame it had to be fuel limited.

I'm always wary of all these mods tbh. Even the GTN pack we used at thruxton didnt feel right entirely right setup wise. But all of these are a matter of intepretation on car dynamics, setup options and expected behavior.

Saying that just looking through their website its hard not to drool at all the cars available, even the single seaters.

And have bought the GT pack (If just from a GTR2 vibe) and this pack!

Looks like RSS are having a sale as well..
36  UKAC / UKAC Races / Re: UKAC Season 18 Group C Fun Trophy - R3 - Highlands - Nov 23 on: November 23, 2022, 12:35:12 PM +0000
I was thinking that if i do lower the boost, I'm doing slower laps but i still need to do the same laps so not actually gaining anything and didn't feel i was gaining anything on fuel usage
37  UKAC / UKAC Races / Re: UKAC Season 18 Group C Fun Trophy - R3 - Highlands - Nov 23 on: November 22, 2022, 01:27:25 PM +0000
tbh I've never felt the fuel usage vary; What stracker tells me the laps of fuel i have and it doesn't really vary from leaving the pits to finishing!

Which is why i default to assuming it was two full tanks to get through the race, not accounting for how different this track is! I'd even decided to run higher boost! Was only last night I suddenly realised this is going to be an efficiency run as driving normally wasn't going to get to the end.

I'm not sure people realise this having seen the laptimes posted on the server!

Mercedes for me.. better suited than the mazda for this

Hmm so am i really going ot be over 10sec off the pace?? MAybe i should consider the Merc as well!
39  UKAC / UKAC / Re: AC top 15 car mods on: November 19, 2022, 08:07:01 PM +0000
Clearly not of interest to most here.... but shame its taken so long to finally see a half decent LMP2 car in AC.

The curb design is shocking though! Number of times ive touched the curb and it spits me off in to the grass
42  UKAC / UKAC Races / Re: UKAC Season 18 Group C Fun Trophy - Grobnik - Nov 16 on: November 13, 2022, 09:11:13 PM +0000
Have done over 30 laps tonight, sadly not quite half a race length... but will go with the Porsche LT this time. Its bloody lively! but actually the car works far better than the mazda i tried first of all. Yes traction is still an issue!

I am shattered if just from the concentration, the race is going to be long!

Hmm.. a car that doesnt handle around Bathurst, going to be tough
44  UKAC / UKAC Races / Re: UKAC Season 18 Group C Fun Trophy - Grobnik - Nov 16 on: November 12, 2022, 10:07:07 PM +0000
Wow, this is going to be tough, so much different to Barcelona; thats quite easy on the tyres in comparison! I'm not sure how i can be kind to my tyres around here! Just doing a stint will be challenging
45  Race Room Experience / RRE Races / Re: RRE Season 9 (2022) Riccardo's 70th - Hungaroring - Nov 10 on: November 12, 2022, 12:55:37 PM +0000
There's been way too much aggression in these first two races.... can we please calm it down and respect each other!
