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

[nialloftara]

Wow, just tested my car on the ring... Going to hope my high reliability and fuel economy make up for my very lack luster time.

Same here.......... although I dont know what constitutes as "high" for reliability in 1945, or fuel economy for that matter.

[nialloftara]

I'm figuring 44-45 on the engine should be a pretty good reliability score, seeing as dear Bayer only recommended around 30.

A bit late, but here is the season pre-test video I made over last night:

Another test (the last one before the start of the season) will probably be held on Wednesday evening (Europe) and uploaded on Thursday morning. So get your car ready for that if you want any feedback before the official part begins!

[BlastersPewPew]

Well, I see I still have some adjustments to do. Time to fire the monkey with the hammer and get someone who knows suspensions to fix this

[07CobaltGirl]

So I have some rear grip issues and definitely using too much fuel! Still not too bad. Right behind strop!

[sniperbait636]

Well I got rid of the tire wear issue now I just have to find some speed, good thing I've been working on an I6 they'll do low 2:51's.

Also was damage on? Or is everybody's car just super safe.

[Packbat]

Only a few seconds off the pace, and consistent lap times! I'll take another look at it when I get home - figure out if there are any straightforward tricks to speed things up.

(If not, I might just use the next test for some experimentation - for the longer races, would definitely be profitable to know what effects different changes have on performance....)

[3rayman3]

Well i do have fuel consumption issues

[Neoph]

Well, i don't think i can manage 6 seconds more... at least my engine is the most fuel efficient.

[TheBobWiley]

Used the big body 40's car, expected last place, moved form 33 start position to 16...... I have high hopes for my small body to run in Wednesday night's test now
I would love to know how dazzazoo managed 188 kph and moved up to the fastest lap time!
Maybe my v8 is too heavy for this, but I just can't get an inline 6 to match it in any way. O well, gonna send my small body to Bayer tonight or tomorrow and hope for the best on Wednesday!
Good luck all.

O, ok he was DQ'd, thought he got a fix in before the test run. Didn't realize DQ'd cars where still in the test video.

[Der Bayer]

Why not, they can still use the feedback.

[TheBobWiley]

Very true, just wasn't paying attention.
