That damn Samba bus has a GT3 engine in it.

Did the Kyoto Driving Park 1hr w S-FR Racing Concept. I beat it… but I highly recommend upgrading the suspension. It’s very tail-happy and it kills rear right tire quickly.

I did SM tires w 2 pits. First pit in, I just swapped the tires & no gas fill. Second pit, replaced the tires and fill the gas lil bit more than half tank. After second pit in, I played around. That was enough to finish easy first place.

Clearly didn’t read the post well… or didn’t comprehend it well lmao

With that said, I did beat gr3 RedBull using gr3 911. In dry 911 drive flawlessly… when it rain, even w heavy wet tires, it sucks! Can recommend it it’s only a dry race. If it’s mix, do not use it.

Purchased the 911 GT1 Strassenversion last night, as it just came up in the Legends dealership. Does anyone else have this?

I took it for a spin around the Nordschleife (on SS) tires and wasn't super impressed. Was fast and fun, however it really did not feel like it was producing any downforce (and according to the settings it should have around 700-800 lb in the default setting). Wasn't really able to corner faster than the Carrera GT, which has basically no downforce.

Yes, this was the one car I was waiting for! I was actually pretty pleased with it, very easy to drive as it should be. You definitely need to be moving quick for the downforce to come into play but I thought I was feeling it.

Bought it and nerfed a little to get the PP to 700 to see how it would do in the LM grind race. I thought it drove well, not race car good, but for being a "road car" good.

I took it out to the 700pp gr.4 race on Deep Forest as I just like doing that race. Doesn't pay well and seems to have a sensitive CRB - I almost never get it.

I left it bone stock, including the power to hopefully keep fuel consumption low. I even ran on the stock SH tires haha, all in the name of avoiding the pits.

The AI do really well on gas there. Anyhow I was 3.3 seconds ahead in the lead going into the last hairpin, last lap. Finished 8th Ran out of gas on the way down the hill and the car really didn't carry its momentum well up into the final straight

^lol, must be all the drag from downforce that accounted for not carrying momentum.

I've got almost 20 mill credits saved up and I'm ready to pounce on the F40, 288 GTO and F1 when they become available. Then I really don't care too about saving up credits, haha.

Is anyone else annoyed at the racing "level" disparity? It feels like 75% of the races in the game (and 100% of the long races) are in the 650-800PP range. Meanwhile there are literally zero long events for slow cars (minus a few of the Missions, but I don't really count those because the payout is one and done) and literally nothing for LMPs, Group C, etc 850-1000PP cars.
