Another AC test race, this time the Praga R1. 40 min race with mandatory pitstop to be taken in the middle ten minutes of the race

[SRW]

practice server is up, i have not had a chance to test it yet

[SRW]

Its raceday folks!
1. Make sure you have the correct DLC for the praga
2. Dont forget there is a pitstop in this race

Can't make it on time, have fun.

Only three of us but had a nice race with Stephen.

Praga was a decent drive but a bit tricky, at least with my setup. The back end was very easy to lose and once it went was very hard to catch leading to a couple of mid corner spins. Just seemed a bit slow and not very exciting to drive but would maybe give some decent racing if there were enough of us.

Don't know if you have plans to try the Lambo Super Tropheo in these fun races, it's much more of a beast than the Praga or maybe the Porsche Supercup car? Both real life series which might help raise some interest

I think the big problem here is that is was Sunday night - I'd quite like to have joined in otherwise as the Praga would probably give some good racing.

Regarding the Super Tropheo's, since ACC made the Porsche Cups irrelevant I've been tempted on a series with them after one of my more classic seasons to break things up.
I can certainly run them for a fun event after the GPL cars if SRW hasn't done so first - maybe back to back it against a fun race in Muira's as a comparison

I've always wondered why there isn't much going on with the ACC Super Trofeo cars. Everyone seems obsessed with the Porsche Cup cars.

I liked the car generally... Bit like a F4 or a LMP3

I'd softened the rear springs as i'd felt it too stiff and too easy to loose grip, but then changed it back right before the race and regretted...

[KDiesel]

Not much point to race anything what you get from ACC, if you ask me...
