What changes have been made to the 550? Can any of the cars make the 200mph barrier?

Less torque with the weight which was already there few seasons. If any car can make it will be the Saleen or Viper. Just run 1-1 wing . |

im still salivating at this one. Out of interest what wings are you guys running ? Does it count as a high speed track like a Monza configuration ? ie 1 front splitter, 2-3 rear ?

2:4 for me .... gets me round the twisty bits facing the right way. Over 200mph with 4 rear wing? I must have been poor out of the corners the other day as even running 1-2 wing I did not manage to get 200mph from the 550. I just used my monza set ups with longer gearing. All the set ups felt stable enough except the Lambo which felt dreadful which confused me since my basic lambo set up seems to fit everywhere. |

Lap Time: 3.47.2

im finding with my gears stretched to fullest limit i am redlining the gearbox for far too long on the straights in the RSR which makes me wonder if the car will survive a 130min race  That was using a 2 rear wing so should i assume that i will need to increase that wing just to prevent the limit light glaring at me on the straights and therefore kerb my top speed ? Does changing the power diff affect gearing in this sort of circumstance? |

The power diff will not have any effect on top speed. That's just a measure of how much power it takes to lock the rear wheels together on acceleration.
You will probably find the majority of cars red line on the straights here....part of the 'fun' for an Enduro race is looking after the engine. Setting up the car to last the distance is probably more important than top speed imo.

You can also reduce the maximum RPM in the setup - it'll lower your top speed of course but prolong the engines life no end.

For those that have checked there top speed in Motec. Check your speed in game and the end of the straight. For me is differs by 5 mph 195 in game comes out as 201.4 in motec driver details tab. but there is another thing, using the same data, Motec shows a different speed in the lap report 200.1. All at the same point on the track. If motec has got two different speeds from the same lap data I would trust the ingame speed more. seems very weird can someone check this out to make sure it aint me being a prat  |

For the graphs, Motec uses a 'corrected speed' calculation which takes into account the possibillity of wheel lock ups, wheel spin etc and compensates for them to give a more accurate speed measurement. The speeds shown on the lap report should be the same...but it is possible to get a little variation due to the way the lap report is 'made up' and displayed as opposed to the Graph data. IMO the graph data is the most accurate information you can get....looking at the speed in game will only give you an aproximation, (is it 93.1 or 93.9 ?) and who is to say you are looking at the speedo in car at exactly the split second before any deceleration occurs. I'll stick with Motec....got to be more accurate. |
