This cup will consist of 3 races: Nürburgring GP, Mugello and Donington National. The races will be fortnightly, with other races/cups/series filling the gaps.

After some calculation, this is what I'm thinking:
[DYNAMIC_TRACK] SESSION_START=97 RANDOMNESS=0 LAP_GAIN=25 SESSION_TRANSFER=60
Which would be starting at 97%, reaching 100% at two-thirds through the race with an 8 car grid - if we have more drivers then the track will rubber in quicker.

8 car grid? Setting the bar high there Tibs stick a race notice post over on the chit chat thread section on the Kunos AC website, other sites do and the site is visited by hundreds Had a quick half hour in the E90 but only 2:16's so far with 30L fuel and grip set at 'fast' not optimum. Still tweaking default as had no benchmark setup or times to aim for. Want to try the other 2 cars if I get time.

Low 2:16's with all 3 cars now, nicely evenly matched. (fast, not optimum grip, practise session, 30L fuel, softs) Trickier to drive than I expected, especially low speed grip and under heavy braking.

Good to hear the cars seem to be of a similar pace to each other which should make for a very nice series I'll probably go for the Alfa or Merc as I've not had much chance to try either of them so far.

Got into the mid 2:15's last night but looks like I'm off the pace to the tune of a sec or two despite banging in quite a few laps. Just struggling with the braking and understeer. Ps I have posted an advert over on the Kunos website. Fuller grid the better

God these are hard to drive, rubbish brakes! Actually find the Alfa nicer to drive but doesnt feel quick, in terms of straightline speed.

Hello,
I have just tried to download the PLP app, it asked me to register and associate to my steam account. I have done this, when I click the link on this post to try and download I get to a page describing the app, but I cant find any button for downloading?

If you scroll down to the bottom of the first post in the linked thread, it's there as an attachment.

I think Bmw is the hardest to drive and also thr slowest. Alfa has a huge start advantage so you van gain some places and than try to hold on :-)
