    Pretty convincing win, stopped on lap 5, mediums both stints. Map 1 with a bit of short shifting. I didn't get any rain but i'm not sure if that was luck or normal.

    I've had two with rain and two without.

    Hi all,

    A few updates have been made to the calendar. I've been convinced to scrap the real world style season and instead have adopted some circuits that genuinely feel phenomenal in this car. Touching on car feel, I can confirm that this season we will again be running Racing Softs ONLY (excluding wet conpounds). This car is already a handful under acceleration and the tire wear rate we would have had to crank in to make medium/hards usable would've been eye watering.

    We plan on using the car at it's stock power and weight levels which unfortunately means we cannot disable Tuning. This means that we will again be trusting the community not to tamper with anything in the settings whatsoever. Brake Balance is allowed and open to all however ANY AND ALL OTHER ADJUSTABLE SETTINGS ARE BANNED. Anyone found to be in breach of this will be Disqualified on the spot.

    We recognise that it will be a long wait to get things going, but this is going to be well worth it everyone!

    Cheers,
    Viper

    Using softs and mediums would be way better because there will be an actual strategy going on instead of fuel saving for half the race then going full speed to the end.

    The refuel rate will be high enough that fuel saving won't be the optimal strategy, and like I mentioned, to make there be multiple strategy options, we would have to turn up the wear so high it would genuinely turn people away.

    That is about 8 seconds better than mine. I have some work to do.

    Did you consider BoP with brake balance allowed? Admittedly, BoP robs it of about 200BHP.

    That's why I won't consider it, it feels so dead with the added weight and stripped power. Defeats the purpose of running the car at all in my opinion.
