mm don't like this track, too fast and low grip in every corner. Some errors and you screw the rest of the corners.
What's everyone gonna drive? I think the FXO again images/smilies/smile.gif

No Formula V8? images/smilies/cry.gif

Mischief007 · November 1st, 2005, 01:08 AM

As some of you know, I'm working this weekend so I'm out already.

andyhui01 · November 1st, 2005, 01:35 AM

I'm going away for the weekend as well so I won't be in images/smilies/sad.gif

... shame though, I was really looking forward to this track

ESPNSTI · November 1st, 2005, 04:22 AM

I picked this track because I really hoped the FZR would be manageable and competitive here (seeing how I love that car on this track).
I can get 25 clean laps in it, and I can kill the FXR with it in hot lapping, but with an "endurance" setup, I'm 1 to 1.5 seconds off the pace with it compared to the FXR. images/smilies/cry.gif

Formula V8 is a LOT faster than the GTRs.

andyhui01 · November 1st, 2005, 04:29 AM

sorry about that... but I'm definetly back for that UF1 race images/smilies/biggrin.gif

... I would have picked the FOX for this track though... easy to handle... not much braking needed = little room for error images/smilies/biggrin.gif

Mischief007 · November 1st, 2005, 10:55 AM

I probably would have gone for the FZR as well. Flowing corners fit that car very well. Tight track is impossible with that car and I did try it once. Never again.

andyhui01 · November 1st, 2005, 10:58 AM

but the FZR has little room for error... a little mistake in the throttle and you're there drifting without control

Not if you can control it properly. I know the throttle is extremely touchy with that car and a little too much throttle gets you sideways. I almost completed one lap with it in Kyoto GP images/smilies/lol.gif

andyhui01 · November 1st, 2005, 11:31 AM

me too... I lost the FZR once in the oval and once in the chicane after the oval... in the oval, I accidently dipped the front wheel on a flat surface and my car totaled

I'm back so I should be in. images/smilies/smile.gif

pdanev · November 5th, 2005, 10:41 PM

Sweet racing! Although I didn't like the part when I lost it 1 lap before the end images/smilies/lol.gif

Next week's UF1 race also starts promising images/smilies/wink.gif

ESPNSTI · November 5th, 2005, 10:58 PM

Mischief007 · November 6th, 2005, 02:15 AM
