Automation Airfield Power Lap Times

Can anyone give help for getting a quick time? I made a race car earlier and was 1:17.

Long story short, downforce is key, and there is a way to generate a lot of it, with very low drag. Use many wings, but set their downforce setting very low. This should allow insane cornering speeds. For a more thorough answer, go talk to strop, he's the guy for anything regarding speed and madness: viewtopic.php?f=35&t=4022

Well, assuming you have selected a good engine (9-10.8L NA), then what Pleb said is basically right (not that I told him what to say or anything). When I say "many wings", I mean well over 10, and sometimes a lot more. In terms of suspension tuning, there is no "secret" except that sway bars are not really that important, and getting rid of them entirely is sometimes a good idea. Make sure to get the car as light as possible, and beyond that, it is all up to you.

Thanks!

Here are my results from Kubboz's 10 minute challenge.



1.39.42

Oh, and this is a production car, not a race car... even though it looks like a spitfire, why didn't I call it that? :/

Complying with the new 2 lips 2 wings limit wasn't very easy, but I managed to do quite well with 2 lips and 1 wing. I present to you, the 2014 Garza CTX-R [production car] (revised for B1415)!

UPDATE

The leaderboard has now been WIPED following the public release of B1415. The 2 wings, 2 lips limit is now in effect. If the is a car that has been top of the board for a long time, I will ask for the LUA files for that car, so I can check that it complies with the lips and wings limit.

Other than that, the board still works as before. I haven't bothered to update my other leaderboards, since this one is the most popular. But I will update the other leaderboards on request.

Get those new entries in!

Cheers!

You must see lots of donks where you live. Imagine the prestige value you would get with a donk!

Well, GAC pushed hard to surpass the 1:13.00 set by Camoria, and we ended up with a final time of, well, have a look...
