Here is what i got in my very first approach to Road Atlanta ....
IROC 1.29.424 914 1.29.409
It seems to me that Legzy did a very good job in grouping those 2 cars. Quit different behaviors lead exactly to the same lap time !!!!

Hi guys I've done some laps with some cars. That's the result: Porsche 911 IROC after 100 laps in qualy setting. 1.26.7xx I think that's the best I can do... maybe I have other 2 tenths, no more... Porsche 906-6 after 15 laps 1.26.010, surely 25 low it's possible, and maybe a 24 high... Porsche 906-8 after 15 laps 1.25.9, but 24 low it's possible Porsche 911 3.0 RSR after 50 laps 1.24.5 in VDA server, 1.24.9 in ukpng, I'm near my limit with this one... I can only say that the 911 RSR seems stronger than his group, and especially in the first bumpy part of the track, it's harder to make some mistake with that car compared to the 906 that got so much troubles when the bottom touches the ground. I had so much troubles to be constant with the 906 due to that troubles... Anybody else tried the 906 yet? I want to know if it's only a setup matter, but i didn't reach to erase that bump troubles.

No Mark, I consider me a human, not an alien, but the fact is that in this period we have no other championship, and i use to play only with P&G at the moment... It's my favourite mod, i like it so much. In a track like RoadAtlanta, the knowledge of circuit is the primary thing. After more than 200 laps I started to understand the right gear for the corners, and especially the right lines to be fast. After 15-20 laps i was in your same conditions with the 911 RSR, then I improved so much my times, but it's all a matter of training. Cu

managed another 28 laps tonight online and shaved a few more tenths off my IROC time: 1:30.151 now. Had a 29.8 on the cards but blew the penultimate corner ..it will come I wish i had the time and patience to do 200 laps !

Any chance of a TT Manteos? Got my hands full with tokens and the iRacing Lotus, so I'd love to know where you find so many extra seconds in the IROC!

The answer is in the hour of this post Paul if you make 100 laps with Porker IROC you will destroy my lap time... Anyway, remember to turn in qualif session. All my laptimes are done in that session... really more grippy than Practice 1, that i totally dislike... With the IROC it's really important the right gear in every corner... change gear make you waste precious time . It's only a little suggestion, you will see that will work. And in the first sector, to make a good time you have to do the right lines. Concentrate on this GN guys P.S Sorry for my ignorance in abbreviations... but what's the meaning of TT?

i cant believe Manteos is an incredible 4 seconds a lap faster in the IROC !!? That is quite an amazing time of 1:26 even if it was in the qually session. I know/think i can get in the 29's with a very good lap but doubt i would find an extra 4 seconds Could be up for some lappage later on if anyones about?

Surely it shouldn't be about peoples ultimate pace but the relative perfomance between the groups and the fact the RSR is 1.8 secs faster proves it.

i was taking the IROC anyway, so wouldnt really matter if you took the RSR away. I had assumed quite early that it was took quick for the other cars in the group when i had the fastest time on that evening! However, now seeing that our Italian friends are setting such blistering pace in the IROC etc then i may well revert back to the RSR to give myself half a blinking chance ..a bit demoralising seeing those times sometimes. Did another 20 laps tonight but couldnt better my 1:30.151 in the IROC. At least i can set fairly regular 1:30's now after a few laps. I really am at a loss to see how i could possibly find that much more time around this track Good fun all the same

Now if only Manteos would come up with a timetrial, we could all have a look Like you Mark, I am surprised at the margin, as I wouldn't ever expect to be anywhere near that much quicker than you once you know a circuit well. I only did a handful of laps the other night, and best was a low 30. Hard to see where I could find 2 secs, let alone 4y, but then again it is a very challenging track. Trouble is I don't want to chop and change from PnG to iRacing, so I want to get sebring out of the way before trying the IROC again. My money would be on the 906 at a track like this, so not sure the RSR is out of place.

I'm really struggling to get any sort of consistency and speed with these cars and track combo; 1.33 was my best in the RSR after many, many offs. It's like driving a motorised pendulum and when you throw in the high speed crests, it's a lottery on whether you're facing the right way on the other side Don't get me wrong, they are fun to drive but I can't see myself lasting 5 mins let alone the whole race, and I don't want to take anyone else out. The cobra at interlagos for the last race was a walk in the park compared to this . Manteos's 1.24 lap hasn't done an awful lot for the ego either .... Is it just my incompetence or are any other non-aliens struggling as well?

Me too Mcfids. I can't get anywhere near MJ's time let alone the Aliens. Hopefully there will be a few of us in the same boat mate.
