 If ya don't want to practice under mix conditions, MLR_Carts and I will likely be spending quite a bit of time in my lounge working out kinks in our 500 cars through out the week. So, if you see me and a couple MLR guys in my lounge, that'll be what we're up to.

I wish I was practicing right now, but I'm at work.  I want to try and get on later tonight after work. I've got to find at least 2 seconds.   :copz:

Long story short, 32s. I know that's 3 seconds off of the 29s many have seen but I can deal with a 1 second gap in the race. 3 seconds is almost guaranteed back of the pack in my opinion.

I think tonight I've got to figure out if its just me or the car. I'll try testing one of the NSXs or GTRs and see what I get. If its the car there may be little that I can do, a good tune can not always cure a slow car. Although it can help. If its me, I just need to run a few hundred laps and get myself back up to speed.

I'm running 32's and 33 in a GTR so....


But anywho keep in mind these 29's and 30's are being run in free run, race conditions are not going to be close to that. Stop by and we can run our 33's together, lol.

Hey Brindle, are there any plans to handicap the faster cars in order to keep the racing closer? I know it's early in the season, just curious if you had thought about do it.

Had, but too much testing is needed.  So far, my best guess is all MR cars must run about .10 higher power/weight ratio than all the others.  

I don't really think I am going to do anything about it.  I'll get those NSX's.  ;)

I may be able to fix the 300 group.  The NSX's I don't think I can without owning every single one.

I'm going to do a test run and compare the drink to the mr-s.  I will let you know.

I'm going to need some lap times from the 300 group.  My results show the MR-S to be faster only on certain tracks.  Here is my results with both cars completely stock minus trans adjust for top end and addition of turbo's...

Monza

MR-S @ 338 = 1'41.715
MR-S @ 348 = 1'42.438

Drink @ 338 = 1'43.017

Cote

MR-S @ 338 = 1'34.908
MR-S @ 348 = 1'35.897

Drink @ 338 = 1'35.015

As you can see, at this track they are equal.  Of course thats me racing both.  You each can only drive one, so you can see why I need lap times.  I have info from the Monza replay and can compare to your current times at Cote.

Thanks

Judging by those times for Cote I don't stand a chance lol, best I could get out of my POS Subaru was a 1'36.6xx and average was mid 1'37s.
