I think the AI in AC is the best I've seen in any sim. Try chasing them in a race weekend in these cars, they are no slouches  Undecided

Ahhh groovy  Cheesy

Mmm did a couple of laps Sunday evening on a random server getting the 312T dialed in. Did a high 1.44s. so need to find a few seconds then.
Got an appointment tonight, so hoping to be back in time before booking closes.

Amazing that they were able to simrace back in those days with such blurry graphics.

Pro tip, don't use that video to learn the track, you'll have a bad time. angel

I'm very good at it (In RL at least) but still smashed the Lotus to pieces last week and had to retire - I think they gave me a Renault 'box....

Well, I enjoyed that even more than I thought I might  Smiley had expected to enjoy the experience of racing a 70's Ferrari f1 car but thought I'd be woefully off the pace  Tongue

But some in-qually tweaks saw me improving my lap times each time and with my last flying lap I bagged 3rd on the grid  Shocked
Had a tentative race start as realised I had left my softs on from qually..d'oh! ...or so I thought!  shifty
Fmg nipped ahead down into Tarzan and that set the tone for a full race length chase of his car  Cool
I expected the softs to destroy themselves within 3 laps as that's all they lasted in qually when really on it, so I concentrated on trying to be smooth, JB stylee, with no sliding around or spinning up the rears and amazingly they stayed in the zone. Whenever the left rear got red hot (tyre app) I just eased off a bit in the corners.  Smiley
I started to tire a bit with 3-4 laps to go and fumbled a few gear shifts but kept Fmg focused until the finish line.
Great fun  Cool

Well done and thanks to all that attended and congrats to the Flying Dutchmen Jos, who won  thumbup1

Great fun that race -very satisfying to see that I managed to fairly consistently keep myself in the 1:39's for most of the race too  Smiley

Any ideas for Wednesday? Maybe compromise somewhat as there have been complaints about the H-shifter cars

McLaren F1's somewhere perhaps?

we did the F1 GTR recently and it was great fun. Someone mentioned the Formula Trucks and MJ also had the Ferrari 458 italia in mind a few weeks ago. Might be good fun.

Somehow,  I think the k-bow could be good fun. Don't think it is ever used here.

No interest from me in running trucks but you guys naturally feel free to organise one  Wink
X-bow and 211 doesn't really do it for me either after trying them here before  Undecided

I was going to suggest lotus Evoras at Donington, not had time to test/try anything else. Will run my Coppa D'Italia series eventually using f458's or F40's.
