TuTu August 27 2013 - La Lepre e La Tartaruga
« on: August 24, 2013, 10:32:26 AM »
Something a little different: The Tortoise and The Hare. It's kind of like a Team TuTu, but you can switch teams and you can compete within your own team to win. So not really like a Team TuTu at all.

Car: Ferrari Enzo '02 vs. Alfa Romeo 147 TI 2.0 Twin Spark '06

Setup: Stock. Oil Change. Go bananas on wheels and paint.

Restrictions
Tires (normal wear): Alfa: Racing Soft. Enzo: Comfort Hard.
Tuning: Prohibited
Lounge: TuTuTuna
Opening Track: Eiger

Thanks to everyone who came out and experimented. It took a little while but I think we finally found the sweet spot at Deep Forest and comfort mediums.

I think this concept could actually work well if even more experimentation is done (and I'd be happy to be a guinea pig for that).

The Enzo with worst possible tire vs Alpha with best possible tire, as we realized, turned out to be a little too much.  Slightly improving the Enzo's grip with the CM's helped but on some tracks the Enzo was able to just get out on the straights WAY too much.

There are probably other car combos that would work too.  Maybe even better than these ones.

The only suggestion I'd make is choosing cars that are at least a little closer in performance, and then not using as big of a grip difference on both cars.  So maybe a car that is 400hp vs something that is 500hp, with the one on RH's and one on CS's or something.  That may allow more tracks to show that sweet spot you're looking for!

Thanks for the good races!
