The OCD is also full of some British Lightweights (mostly Lotus I think) and a few other unrelated vehicles.

I've been slack on posting these up the last couple weeks, my apologies. My motivation to play it is almost gone. I did run a couple of these in the 111R, and even at 488pp they were very doable, providing I stayed out of trouble.

111R shared for British seasonals. Gave it a fresh oil change, which bumped the PP up to 497, I dropped it back down to 490(pre-oil change PP), it was at 488 when I started using it. Have fun with it.  :D

Initially, I bought a new car because I was under the impression that I needed to do weight-reduction and maybe other permanent changes to it to win these events, but when I started working on setting it up, what it really needed was ballast added to the front and major thinking on the suspension (I applied Gar's guidelines). I only put enough effort into tuning to win these events and the car probably needs more work to make it handle even better, but it got the job done.

If anyone is interested, I can post my tune as-is in the tuning thread.

The hardest part was getting the car to not spin out exiting the underpass, after the startline. I sort of tamed it there, but it may be at the expense of some other bad habits elsewhere on the various courses.

Seems they slowed the rabbits down a bit. I fairly easily was able to win these with a bolt on modded only California at about 560pp. The last race at Toscana took a couple runs to get use to, but turned out to be a really fun track.
