Project Cars 2 Round 1 Zolder

Challenge accepted - I'm gonna sit down and lap the track until I beat Julian's time! (I'm Tr33ck0 on the board btw)

 

Good luck Victor!
Oddly enough, I found I could run sub 1:40’s on the server (and no cutting), but not off-line, and my setup tells me my potential best lap is sub 1:38.
I find the chicane at the end of the back straight and the second to last corner are the areas to make/lose time.
Looking forward to getting back to some racing again!

 

Got a 1:39.328 which I'm super happy about!
I still don't know how some people were able to go a whole second quicker

To me it's turn 2 and the last chicane which was most problematic, but I managed to get them more consistent by giving the car a slight bit of understeer on acceleration

Also Ken, I and Aleksandar would like to take the #67 and #71 liveries if still possible

 

Strange isn’t it, I love the first section of the track and don’t have a problem with turn 2, for me a later turn in is quicker. The chicanes are better for me when on a “positive” throttle

Good lap! I agree, don’t know how the “aliens” do it!

 

@Viktor Takács Just tweaked the setup and got 1.39.6………and was running in the 39’s after, happy with that. Getting that last chicane right can gain you another .2 or more……positive throttle again!

 

Nice one!
Julian got 1:39.2s while practicing on the server today, so I'm not as confident anymore

 

To be fair, I was quicker on the server than I was on the time trials before I tweaked the setup today. Shaping up for some good racing!

 

#13 for me please

 

Can I have #59 if available plz.

 

Well….that was an eventful race for my return! A lot of mistakes for me after being put into a spin on lap 1 coming out of turn 4!
Couldn’t get any consistent laps in, last quarter of the race I found some rhythm and was chasing Viktor down, didn’t think I would catch him, but found myself 0.5 behind him on the last lap after being 11 seconds behind…..maybe just one more lap may have paid off. But other than my own mistakes, thoroughly enjoyed it. Great racing @Viktor Takács , you made your car just wide enough! Grats to Julian on the win and thanks to my team mate for the support!

 

I'm pleased with the race result and worked hard on a really good race setup, just a bit of a shame Chris had an issue at turn 4 and Viktor must have had an some issue because they both had fast times so i was hoping it would be real close.
The track i must admit is tricky and easy to make a mistake on especially the dreaded chicane, but i still find it a fun track.
The car has taken me quite a few hours to get to grips with and get some setups going that suit me and the track, I probably spend more time than most learning a car and track combo,(kids left home, wife happy watching movies) maybe i need to get out more
Redbull ring next, and that is one track i just don't enjoy so have never spent any real time on it, but at least there is some time to get to grips with it.
Till the next one.

 

For the most part it was a fairly uneventful race for me, got into p2 after the first corner and from then I stayed there until the end of the race except for the last lap when I had to put in everything I've got in order to defend my position from an incredibly quick Chris, who was probably more than a second faster than me by the end.
Great race to begin the season, looking forward to the next one!

 

Not really to be honest, you were gone after a couple of laps so I just focused on maintaining a steady pace and not making any mistakes. Low 1.41s were all I had in me with the race setup.

 

Oh ok, Yours and Chris TT times were very fast ,but i know transferring that on to the car for a race is always difficult and can take a while.

 

Hard race on a tricky circuit with an extraordinary car.
After a good start gained P2, but when going into corner 1 i had
a slightly contact with Victor with big impact. My display showed
damage 1 (which should mean nothing) but my suspension was offended.
The car was very challening to drive now which resulted in 2 serious mistakes.

Later i had a rendevouz with Brian, who also had to struggle with the car.
It was a nice battle and i really was feling sad when i saw you going off mate, always
a pleasure to do a tandem - race with you.

At he end i was gaining Ken, but i was running out of time. P5 was the maximum this time.
Next round there will be a larger grid, i am convinced, CU @ REDBULL RING.

PS: Julian, you promised tighter races with this car!!! That was completely incorrect, shame on
you LOL, grats mate, outstanding pace!!!!
