Please use the car’s default setup. You may only adjust fuel levels, tyres, TC, ABS, and Brake Bias.

You have until 13/08/2023 23:59 to submit your best lap. Please only submit times in a top level comment. If you have already submitted a lap and you improve, please edit your top level comment.

Please include a screenshot of your lap time for verification.

Rain

We were going to make this a wet weather challenge, but wet weather requires paid mods. Please let us know if you're happy for that. We will write up a guide for this if we have a wet challenge.

Last time out

This one proved more popular! SimpleDev took the W with an outstanding lap.

Yeah I noticed it was quite skippy feeing in a few areas as well, almost like the car is way too stiff or something.

Manageable but interesting to drive around for sure!

It feels almost like the contact patch is skipping over the track surface. I know the track isn’t this bumpy since the iRacing version is super smooth through those corners.

I just did a few more laps and you're exactly correct, the tire is indeed skipping (if it's not entirely off the ground) going around multiple corners due to the overall stiffness.

Makes for a tricky car to drive!

That explains my wheelbase trying to rip my arms off

I might not get a better lap in because of it
