Not sure if it's relevant or helpefuly but.. I traditionally don't like LMPs that much but when we raced them last Friday in Baked's evnet I did find a couple that were surprisingly manageable for someone with my lack of skill :).  Baked had pointed me in one the direction of the premium Peugot one, I didn't actually get around to trying that one but I did find the Toyota Minolta and GT-One cars to be surprisingly easy to handle and much more so than a couple of others I tried.  I think we were running those at 666PP and I do remember I added some weight to them too (I think I added at least enough to make them 1000kg or close depending on the starting weight) which seemed to help a bit.

I like them at 650-666. They handle well and are plenty fast down the straight. What I don't like is when they turn the lights out at La Sarthe.

@ Feldynn - thanks for the car suggestions.  I'll copy that over to the main thread for anyone looking for something a little easier to handle.

@ Dude, yeah I know what you mean.  The night portion of last week's warm-up race was my worst part!

Wen I practice, if I get to, I will be doing lots of Dark laps.

This sounds similar to the 24 hours in 2 hours I ran.  You using that big of a time modifier?  The link in first post takes you to details from a few weeks ago :)

yeah we'll be doing a time change factor of 12, which will do 24 hours simulation in 2 hours.

yeah, sorry about the outdated link.  Crow is the only one who can update the OP on that forum...  just head to the last page ;)

The BMW v12 LMR was my favorite and my fastest. Was much easier to cope with than the peugeot.

Re: GT Saturdays 7/13 3pm EST (RX-7 LM Race Car)
« Reply #283 on: July 11, 2013, 08:14:50 AM »

new specs posted for this week!

over the next couple months we're going to go about using some cars that seem to get ignored by most racing in GT5, but are still actually worthy of being driven.

RX-7 LM this week, with an S2000 LM coming up soon, as well as Integra-R TC and others!

Go grab these from the Online Dealership if you don't have them!!

Beetle Cup Car this week on Voted  tracks.

Sorry I won't be there again this week.  Summer is escaping me and there are only so many weekends left with my elder son...
