    I'll be organising some races tomorrow night or Saturday night (or maybe both!).

    Might switch to karts for a bit of a change.

    I have a room called Engine Misfire setup.

    You will need to own a kart to enter.

    So now that ye've had a few sessions online, what are ye finding is the best way to pick cars? Do ye specific cars aside or just use the bop option to bring them all back to base spec like if you have a car you like, you can tune it for the single player but also use it for online with bop on?

    I think it works best all with same base level car, whether it be the kart or Clio (of course can agree and try others next time). Level playing field and all that

    I had the most fun with the karts.

    I am ready to move on from front wheel drive cars now and want to proceed to front engine rear wheel drive cars.

    For the closest racing, same spec cars are the best, but I also like Balance of Performance regulations as you can drive cars with different layouts.

    Fully agree same cars as there can be a big difference between them, even at the same pp. I just don't know if day i but a Supra and tune it up but then would bop bring it back to base online so we could all use the same Supra, i just wouldn't have to worry about buying a 2nd one and keeping it at base level if that makes sense?

    Wouldn't mind some fast and furious style cars for races.

    For the next races I set up, Supra's will be involved as will wet weather.

    So for example:

    2020 Toyota Supra base model at Monza driving in torrential rain with traction control disabled.

    Should try Mazda Touring Car at some stage, think it cheap enough and great little car to drive.

    They sure are. You can have just as much fun with small cars over bigger ones.
