Nice, great so see cars rarely used in 1 grid, including the brilliant M4 Tirpitz

Hmm... I don't have the right mindset with the road cars on semi slicks, the edge is a lot lower than with the proper race cars and ends up being less about driving by feel and more meeting the braking and turn in points as I cant lean on the front.
BMW feels heavy and massive understeer!, lotus feels better for me as it actually handles! Porsche definitely feels like it could be quick as its eager to turn in but timing coming back on the power is difficult as it then understeers!

Learn to love the Pork Team Prodigy - Just like Team Oldie only younger, faster, less grey hair and kinder to the environment!

We have to at some point have a race or mini chamiponship with the old 250 maseratis.... Holy hell they are so rewarding to drive.

Not actually tried the old 250f yet nor any of the drift type racers in AC yet but must do so as I find catching a slide in AC so much more realistic than any previous sim likewise the feel through the steering generally

That's the fun of this combo . The Porsche is probably the fastest, but I think the trickiest to drive, the M4 is loads of drift fun and probably the slowest by a bit and the Lotus is a nice handling car. M4 without TC, chuck it in and look through the side window as you exit the corner, kinda reminds me of the good old GTL times in the Falcon

That's exactly how I am finding the cars. The Porsche is fun but the Lotus is just beautiful.

Best I can do is low 39, so the porsche is clearly the fastest for me, but should be a nice challenge, as long as the fastest don't take that car.

Tried to go on the sever, but got kicked, guess the DLC also comes with a patch...nudge nudge EDIT: The M4 received v10 tyres, dunno if that includes the Akrapovic, but hope it doesn't change it too much.
