Re: BRC 1955 - The Golden Age [BUILD]

When all submissions are done can I get them?

I want to make a video where a friend I look at all of them and make comments.

We would love for people to join us on skyp if it happens.

Re: BRC 1955 - The Golden Age [BUILD]

Any chance to get a confirmation from Der Bayer upon receiving my submission? Besides that, would there be a problem for me to change my submission completely? ...my original submission does not exist anymore in any way or format that would resemble the thing i sent in. All save files are unaltered copies, but the game does not interpret them anywhere near the car i saved.

You can take a look at your sent PM if I downloaded the file. And yes, you may change your car completely.

@ GenJeFT: Maybe, remind me again when the submission period is over.

Re: BRC 1955 - The Golden Age [BUILD]

Just to clarify, when you say extending the submission phase, you mean extending it after the second test? (Also, when should we expect the second test to come out, if that is the case?)

I ask because, like Bob, I'm also about to head off on vacation and will be away from the one computer I have that's capable of running Automation, so will have to commit to a strategy soon, as in, by Sunday!

Re: BRC 1955 - The Golden Age [BUILD]

Yes, I will make another pre-season test video after the weekend and then you will probably have another week for improvements.

You should expect the second test to come out... NOW

Pre-Season Test 2

Here it is: http://youtu.be/qJ-J5T5hVC4
Send me your revisions if you think you can improve!

Really cool to see that strop and I are so close together with very different approaches. Good stuff!

Re: BRC 1955 - The Golden Age [BUILD]

Wow, I really, really ruined my car, there. Better fuel economy, less tyre wear, but so much slower and so many more errors!

Also, this is probably unrelated, but question: how does the fuel weight get implemented? Is it added directly to the center of gravity? Does it cause the effective ride height to go down?

Re: BRC 1955 - The Golden Age [BUILD]

Looks like my S2 top speed is hurting me, will regear and I think submit my final revision before I leave on vacation..... the fact that I have lap times only ~3 seconds slower than the fastest cars is.... encouraging, to say the least :P
Will be interesting to see if my lower engine reliability (26.something) screws me over this race year.....

Fuel weight does go directly into the center of gravity. Ride height stays as it is.

Re: BRC 1955 - The Golden Age [BUILD]

Oh boy, that threw some spanners in the works with me. What do I make of these developments!?

Having seen the fuel economies, I think I know what approach I'll be taking next. This will be a gamble because I won't even have a chance to resubmit before submissions close after the third test. But to hell with it, attack attack attack!

Re: BRC 1955 - The Golden Age [BUILD]

Woohoo! That was the most exiting thing I have ever seen. My car didn't suck! 15th and the best time in S3.

Now ambitions will reach even less plausible hights. I must reach top 10 by the next pre-season test, or there will be rage quit.

Re: BRC 1955 - The Golden Age [BUILD]

Yeah I was going to say, your car is amazingly quick in S3.

Honestly, I am worried with my tyre wear. My car is so hard on the tyres, my tyre wear is using the sports softs! O.o
I think I'll have to make some changes to catch up. My top speed is rather low too :/

Congrats Mattmr2 and RubenSL!

Re: BRC 1955 - The Golden Age [BUILD]

Very pleased with that!

Need to make sure I'm easier on the fuel/tyres though. Could be a few last minute alterations in order!
