    Yeah very true sparkle. The way I see it is that it's a good thing to have tight twisty tracks with a car that doesn't handle really well around sharper corners

    Its not really a good thing because then its basically follow the leader as overtaking is impossible.

    So you don't want to try anything or give anything a chance?

    Its not hard to drive though, its really easy to drive. Now combine that with loads of understeer and your very limited on what lines you can take on tight tracks, for instance trying to go on the inside of the corner to overtake is now not an option as you need room to turn.

    Very true, I think there should be one race like that just to spice it up, maybe the sprint?

    How would that spice it up though?

    Spice it up would refer to action being had, not follow the leader

    I was on with some fine fellows yesterday and we had a 5 lapper in the TVR, Tek and I had a fierce dice for the lead and we changed places a number of times. It ended in site of the flag for me when I lost it big time. I think the key to it was that I approach the corner on a tight line and Tek goes in wide for a faster exit. It meant we converged on corner exit but we managed that OK. My point is that we did manage a few passes and it was no harder to race with than the RX7 was.

    an easy way to spice up the racing with this car would be to use sports tyres only and only allow abs. we would end up being slower round a track, but there would be more mistakes and overtaking opportunities. having said that by changing up the brake bias and driving it a certain way you can get a little oversteer into a corner...

    by the way good race last night emmo46. it was good to get online with a few of you guys and see how you all roll. i have to say i was really trying to drive defensively in case i upset someone.... probably cost me a few seconds here and there. still fun though. you guys usually on around 8;30ish??

    Bugger. Was hoping the TVR wouldn't get up. Not a fan at all. Have to grit my teeth and race hard (but clean).
