Is there any tuning or weight restrictions

I take it the driving line will be off ?

I was pissed off how uncompetitive I was last night. It was my first race using a wheel and thought I was getting the hang of it but obviously not. Maybe I'm just too old for gaming....slow reflexes!

The car is from the arcade so you dont have the option to use your own version. We decided to do it this way to make things more even.

i wasnt doing it deliberately, nothing ya can do if someone hits the brakes when ya dont expect it

guil · 30-01-2011 10:59pm

to make it more equal i think TC should be off, in the second race it would of really mattered

its not TC that makes the difference, that slows you down. skid recovery force and boost is on so its impossible to build up a lead.

its annoying but people will just give up if 1 or 2 people run away with it every time. at least this way the races are close.

TC makes it a small bit slower out of corners yeah BUT
after the first race we did monza in the zonda R, with TC off ya couldnt just hammer on the accelerator each time

nocal · 30-01-2011 11:33pm

I reckon that you should leave the penalties on - some of the carry on tonight was shocking. It is not a test of driving skill but ramming skill without the penalties.

yeah penalties should be on, i got one for ploughing into kev at monza but as i said he braked hard when i wasnt expecting it
i saw twinsen run you off the track once or twice

Magown3 · 31-01-2011 1:08am

The 3.56 update kept me away tonight lads. But it looks like I missed nothing but a stock car race!

Kev_ps3 · 31-01-2011 8:58am

I had penalties turned on. Dont know why it didnt work

Quil, you are having a laugh. You hit me like 3 times on purpose, pushed me of the track once to. So I am sorry , you play dirty I play dirty.

However I pushed n-o-cal of the track at the beginning, and for that I apologise.

Kev_ps3 · 31-01-2011 2:46pm

Next Sundays race is 10 laps around Trial Mountain Circuit in a VW Golf V GTI '05 on sports medium tyres.

Kev, was boost on last night? I'm fairly sure it wasn't.
