Theres a bug in setups, by default the ARB are set in some random position. When you try and adjust them you find actually they only have two options; off or full and are alot stiffer than on by default.
God they are either massive understeer or massive oversteer. A 'race' might be optimistic, just staying on will be the challenge.
I haven't tinkered with the setups yet, default felt alright. There is just a lot of torque on the back wheels, and no weight.  |

Just got back, I haven't downloaded the trucks yet and therefore no practice or setups. So won't be able to make it sorry. I'd only be a mobile chicane anyway.

Don't let that put you off. I haven't tried them yet either. It will be fun. |

Shark and I had fun, how position swaps! You tarts who didn't race missed out on a bit of fun in my book. I only installed the trucks at 8:10 this evening. Did 5 laps offline before joining the server. Who needs practice  |

Thanks to the people who joined, the rest all missed out on a lot of fun. Even with such a small grid, can you imagine a full grid of these  . Was close to FMG most of the race, trying to find a way past, but his trucks was usually sideways, so a wide truck became even wider . These things always offer close racing, and are easy to get into without much practice. Next week these thigns at Nordschleife?  (JK  ) |

That was fantastic fun, had to resort to some careful defensive lines towards the end after having killed of my tires and then promptly binned it in the kitty litter anyway, letting Jeffrey though  Couldn't catch back up so gave up trying to be nice to my tires and set about trying to drift the entire circuit, nearly did it on the penultimate lap and then span on the last one As has already been said, those of you who missed this really missed out  |

Yup. I am afraid all the no shows have to endure another Formula Truck outing somewhere this season.. We already got the announcement poster ready i see Any short circuit layout should be easy enough to learn and makes for close racing. So, wassupp next week lads? I have never raced the Evora GTC/GX before. They look like a light GT3/2 car to me. Would love to give them a try.. |

Well I'm still ramped up with work and suffering with the man-flu so feel free to have another week of truck racing as I'm too pushed to sort anything this week.

I am still tempted by the BMW M4. Did we ever try one of the RUF's or the Cobra? Or maybe even the Miura? |
