Yeah, at first I was like "Meh, another FR car" but it's a great little car. I ran a few laps at Deep Forest with it and compared to BH last week, it should be a much more consistent session. The car rotates really well, doubt anyone will loop it (just keep your foot down and power out) and the wider Deep Forest track, no one will be going off and getting stuck other than hitting the guardrail and losing a few seconds.

Only tricky part is tire wear. So I'll set it at 2 Pitstops minimum, including a Tire type change so you can't run the same compound for the whole race. It'll be a 22 lap race, and the tires only last 5 laps before dropping off (around "5" or 50%), so either you'll be doing 3-4 pitstops or trying to maintain your tires if you do only 2 stops.

Car:
Honda Civic Type-R Touring Car '97
PP is 455 and 462 after oil change
keep everything stock
can paint the car and wheels and add your own number
Buy Race Medium Tires (comes with Race Hard)

Enduro Track:
Deep Forest Reverse
· 22 laps
· Car: Honda Civic Type R Touring Car '97
· Boost - off
· Tire/Fuel Wear - Very fast
· Slipstream - weak
· Penalty - weak
· Require Tire Type Change
· Max PP - 462
· Tuning - prohibited
· Max Tire - Race Medium (so Race Hards and Race Mediums during enduro)

Car from GT6:
