Is there a problem with the starter not working on the Skoda or is it just my install?  |

Does anybody have a setup for the Skoda? Would like to add a more aggressive sound for the Skoda (same for the stock Abarth) ...  Will be on a meeting with colleagues monday night for dinner night but expect to be back home in time. Finally want to participate again  BTW: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=07rT1t2hkDU  |

Is there a problem with the starter not working on the Skoda or is it just my install? I thought that I also had a problem with the starter on the Skoda, it just seems to "self start" after a couple of seconds . But unlike most other cars in GTL, there is no initial blip of throttle to kick the rev counter into life to tell you that the engine is running. The engine does sound a little anaemic and gutless even when you wring every available revolution out of the engine!! Just tried both the ( correct) Mini and the Skoda this evening, and like others who have posted, I find the Mini quickest, but strangely I find the Skoda easier to drive?? I guess I have not really mastered the FWD driving style or setups.. EDIT ......................SATURDAY maybe there is a problem with the Skoda?? I escaped the fun warden this afternoon and tried a few more laps in these two cars. Everything was Ok until I had a spin in the Skoda. I did not hit anything, simply stalled the engine....but could not restart it??? Anyone else experienced this??? |

Hi Tony, I took an anti-inflammatory and have improved, so it is possible that I can do the 2 races. I did some laps with a muscle car and the pain is bearable. In addition to brake with the Mini or the Skoda need much less force, then it's possible ..... yesterday i was really worried but medicine and a little rest helped me  |

Pelle has provided his Mini car setup hereDetects just this & the setup can actually be used, if: Gearbox 1 click below & click one more air in the rear tires...& my time was: 1:46.8 Sry I'm a bit heavy, but that should be changed car between each race? |
