BRC - Out of the Steam - 1945 [Final Race Results]

[Packbat]

Well, that's a kick in the head - two seconds slower, even with a lighter fuel load. I may have to just go back to the earlier version.

[Tycondero]

Finally I participate instead of being one of the slowest. 5th place now!

[dazzazoo]

hmm i need to make up 3.4 seconds to catch the front guys

[NormanVauxhall]

Not improvement at all in my car... I'll send you the old one.

[3rayman3]

Hmmm.... I may need to rethink my whole car if my fuel consumption is that bad

[TheBobWiley]

Well crap, that fuel weight took 5 mph off my top speed
AAAAWWWW YEAH, I saw third place and finished 4th. I am impressed with my car

Hey man, our cars are really close, gonna be a fun race weekend!

[Lothoren]

nice, a gain of around 8+ seconds, will have to see if i can improve that tomorrow.

Yes, indeed. The best thing about this entire racing is that I finally know some new tricks to make my other cars also better in future. Took me a while though with a lot of messing around with engines and settings.

[mer_at]

got a question for the fuel usage.
All cars did start with 15 (liters) of fuel, will this happen in the race too, or will every car be filled individually?

Because right now, i would have driven 7.5(L) around for no reason. And the car with the worst fuel economy did finish with 0.0L left, which would be ideal for every car.

[Packbat]

All right - being as I'm out of the running for the lead anyway, I'm taking a gamble and revising my new model rather than return to my first version. As far as I can tell, the only major difference between the green version and the salmon version that can explain the result (which, besides erratic lap times, was chiefly a second-and-a-half lost in Sector 3) is the yaw rate graph: the green car showed a .92 sportiness/.93 driveability there, and the salmon .97/.89. So I have a new silver version with .91/.94. I'll see how it does.

Top speed!!!! But, could only manage to turn it into a 19th place finish, so, yeah. There is that...

FYI, I have not revised my car at all this week (since Sunday), so maybe I should now look into that a bit more. haha

I would revise my car but i keep getting this error when i try revising my car so time to rebuild for a third time

I'll get errors like that, not sure if the same exact one, and I have to restore from a backup I am keeping. No idea what does it :\

[3rayman3]

ive managed to rebuild a faster and hopefully more economical car so i wont have to go through that pain of that error again
