RRE - Most - Dec 20

[picnic]

Apart from the funny initial battery level I found that the Regen % wasn't consistently 13% when loading the car. I had 9, 12 and 13% and I checked I had no buttons set to change it.

Agree with Spanner these were horrid to drive. For the 2nd race I softened the front and raised the rear and all the car did then was plough straight on under braking. Where was my expected oversteer? I quit out after 2 laps and wished I could save the disk space these are wasting on my computer.

[Geoffers]

Turn the TC down, then they oversteer, but not in a nice way. They still understeer until the point the rear loses traction in a big way, not unrecoverable but still a big time loser.

I do agree that they are not a fun car to drive.

[SRW]

I prefer these to the GT4's (well the BMW anyway). but I agree you had to slow your corner entry speed down quite a lot to stop the oversteer.

@spanner - the devs have said that they are going to introduce engine maps at some point which will enable you to make the battery last longer.

@Picnic, not sure what happened about your battery power, every time I left the pitlane I had 100% capacity. I was using up about 14% capacity per lap. I am surprised you managed much more than one lap? how much battery were you using per lap?

I was thinking of using these for a series when we get the engine maps and we can have longer races. In the meantime we will be doing a series using the new DTM2020 cars starting in January

[Geoffers]

As one of those with the 26% power, I was using 3-4% per lap.

Maybe worth noting that the tyre modelling for these cars has changed in yesterday's update.

[picnic]

Like Geoff I was using 3-4% per lap however in practice I managed only 5 and half laps before the battery ran out.

I sort of liked them, though they handled like a pork with extra concrete in the back
I started with 26% every time using 3-4% per lap, and ran out of electrons and their friends in the last corner.

With the new update some cars received now also engine mapping (pity we just raced them this sunday). Now more possibilities for different strategies. New electric car also the VW IDR. For me more fun and more stable (however also the VW is understeery at corner exit).

Cool, I will have a play with the maps over christmas. Might start the series later in January

[Geoffers]

Any results available for this event? (& the AC race at Spa)

[phspok]

I can't do the results until the cars are added to our system, The event is set as a "fun" race, so I think the
event will go away after a while. I don't do AC results, though I think I did once.

I have asked Dave to add these and the VW Idr

Results Done

Dave says he has added both milk floats
