just done 15 laps in porsche, down to 2:26. still deciding whether to race a porsche this season.....never really understood how to get the best out of them, anyone got any setup/driving tips?
hello SRW,
there are 3 porsches (i think) in this carpack, so what porsche did you drive.
if you did drive the orginal porsche RSR, then this car is a very slow car in this carpack, if i remember correct this car did get a weigth penalty of 15kg to orginal, which make this car to much slow.
in other side, the orginal biturbo and seat toleda did get -15kg and this cars are normaly same fast in laptimes then RSR. the M3 which is extrem same fast to RSR did get -5kg.
so the orginal RSR (think 996??) you can forget if you like a winning car.
the biturbo should be a fast car in this carpack, but it takes long time to become fast with this car, because of corner slow this car is.
if you select a porsche i do suggest you the other RSR, perhaps 997 is the name (do never know exactly name of the porsche cars), or 997 cup RSR? this i think is the best car in carpack, together with the f430 and the gallardo lambo (but galardo is slow in straigths speed).
this are information about longer time ago i did test (perhaps 1-2 years ago), but i think not much (or nothing) is changed in this cars since this, so performance should be same (or nearly), only gallardo i did test any days ago in dubai and i did add hoc?? faster laptimes then i can do with M3 (orginal), did with 100l 1.57.mid racelaps which is extrem fast, but car is extrem slow in straights.
think i will drive M3 for this season, easy car to drive and i have already many setups for this car, which save me lot of time and i know car good.
....must we stay the complete season with 1 car? or can we switch 1xtime or more often??
with orginal M3 i think i can do 2.19/2.20 laptimes with 100l med med, so with -5kg in this version and +30litres tank, i will be in the 2.20.xxx in 1st stint i hope.
