coo, these are proper beasts  Point and squirt cars, don't do tight corners and braking very well but masters of the brute torque and bhp! I bought the euro trackpack and the Grp5 pack Ran a few laps at Monza, cars look and sound amazing  only ran about 10 laps to get a feel and using stock setup, did a few 1:54's, which is a little slow but early days. If you try any late braking heroics you don't make the turn! its all about steady and smooth inputs with these brutes. I will be racing the iconic 935 Valiant car  |

Driving these cars is like riding a mustang on thin ice, and I'm considering naming my car 'Crazy Horse' I managed to do a 1.48.800, but doing more than 2-3 laps without my Bavarian horse going astray, is probably beyond my skills. But hopefully, I can manage to stay out of everybody's way Stig |

We have a line fault in Southport where I will be for this race, so may not be able to compete  Hopefully they will sort it in time. |

Doh not looking a great turnout at this rate. Hope some brave pilots are attending. Will there be a practise server beforehand? Having never driven a real 935 (no really ) I haven't got a clue how to set it up. |

Tudor is our most experienced 935 pilot, he may be able to help. For any of these monsters I have to set the front full hard and the rear full soft
which is not realistic, but gives me a chance of finishing. I am expecting to be there, but I was dropped from the Monday's GTL race because
of the dodgy conn. BT say it's an exchange fault and are supposedly working on it. My home server is usually up for practicem and the main server
should be up as well.

Top tip for the 935, ask Anty 'cause he's getting it round here quicker than I can  I find I have to experiment with different diff preload settings to get me out of the slow corners and set suspension a bit stiffer than default to liven up the handling. I'm quicker in the 935 but Monza isn't very inspiring for it so I might try the chevy Greenwood which seems to get round quite nicely with default settings. It seems that lately RL has the biggest impact on attendance so I wouldn't blame it on lack of enthusiasm for any sim. I'll post my usual reminders at NoGrip and Sector3. |

very difficulty but fun car/track combination this is for me.
i did 1.49.low in offline (perhaps little faster is possible) and 1.47.low (i think) in leaderboard challenge.
to push push out of the middle fast corners is much action and fun, and hard to controll it is for me.
hope for many drivers tonights,
i will come with capri, no idea if this is a good car for this track or not, but i like the sound very much in this car.

You need to pm Dave. It would help if he knew what problem he was experiencing. |
