With it being Fathers Day this Sunday i wasnt sure how many people will be free so i chose this combo instead of trying out a new car, two of my favourites GT3 and Eastern Creek! the race will be a 30 minute sprint!

Mmm, I think I will give this a miss, too many cars that I don't have, not worth spending the money just for one race.

No it's not, GT's get max 6 drivers on grid if you are lucky. It's been so almost 2 years but SRW is supremo and decide what we driving, my Gt's stay in garage for good...unless something mega-intresting comes up with these, like proper endurance.

I would love to do some endurance but unfortunately we dont get enough people here anymore to do it (a lot have switched to racing GT's at SRO instead  Sad  )

Coming up soon will be the Skoda Octavia Cup Series!

I quite like the GT3s in AC but their lap times are all over the place ranging around two or three seconds a lap here.

A series of longer races would get my vote but they need some careful testing and BOP adjustments to make them work.....time consuming but straightforward to do in AC. I'm sure a couple of us could get them close enough if need be.

Just done a few laps in the bimmer, it is a few seconds quicker per lap, there is an option in the entrylist.ini to add ballast, but i keep reading about an option to put a restrictor on the inlet manifold but no instructions about how to do it. anyone got any idea?

There are sliders for ballast and restrictor in the "drive" section of Content Manager so presumably hidden somewhere in the server settings for multi.

Unfortunately they're not as effective as one might imagine. With 100KGs of ballast and 50% restrictor for the M235i I am still a second quicker than the Skoda at Silverstone National. We could keep piling on the weight and restriction but it starts getting a bit silly. Also had a quick drive in the Audi S1 and it's 2 seconds slower than the Skoda.

I'll have a look at some other Kunos cars later to see if there's anything close to the Skoda but I'm probably looking at road cars  scooter
