It's a shame, but that truck drives like it's Disney's Baja on Ice. Hopefully they get that straightened out.

Gravel looks really cool. I can live with arcadey handling if it's not too far from reality and if the game is fun.

Nice work Cory!

I'm still whittling down those lap times at Monza.

You did that on purpose didn't you? Went from my favorite car on a track that suits it, to the lead sled on a track that doesn't.

FYI all the GT cars got the new tire model (from the porsche cup car)
we can officially retire the name IceRacing now. the cars/tires are fantastic and the most realistic they have ever been. you can slide and save the cars now.
Its REALLY good. finally feels very much like a real car.

I agree, the cars I have driven all feel like the Porsche that we've all raved about. Apparently, it already had the new tire model. I saved quite a few slides in the BMW in all my laps at Monza, and can honestly say, it's a lot more fun now. It's funny, iRacing's tire model now feels like last years tire model on AC, which they've since changed for the worse. Maybe the lead sled will be a fun beast now.

Damn, that's great news! I now need to find some time to get some laps in. Maybe we can all figure out a time this weekend?

ill be gone this weekend, gonna miss the 12 hours of sebring on TV.

i forgot to mention you have to run much lower pressure now. at sebring we were targeting 20-20.5 psi HOT pressures.

but they are still making tire changes so play around with it. just a heads up that the old pressures will most likely be WAY too much.

Quote:
Audi R8 LMS GT3

– Baseline setups have been corrected.

– Greater tire degradation over long runs via cure-based degradation.

– Minimum cold tire pressures have been increased to ensure realistic operating pressures.

BMW Z4 GT3

– Greater tire degradation over long runs via cure-based degradation.

– Minimum cold tire pressures have been increased to ensure realistic operating pressures.

Ford GT GT3

– Greater tire degradation over long runs via cure-based degradation.

– Minimum cold tire pressures have been increased to ensure realistic operating pressures.

McLaren MP4-12C GT3

– Greater tire degradation over long runs via cure-based degradation.

– Minimum cold tire pressures have been increased to ensure realistic operating pressures.

Mercedes-AMG GT3

– Greater tire degradation over long runs via cure-based degradation.

– Minimum cold tire pressures have been increased to ensure realistic operating pressures.
