Last night I joined an online session at LRP in the Nissan. It was my very first time there with that series...still hard to believe that I hadn't done it before. The car, (with a big lowering of steering angle)...handled exactly as it should. It moved around nicely but was quite controllable. Both oversteer and understeer were quite fun to deal with. I really enjoyed it. What are your best series vs track experiences and why?
McLaren MP4/4 @ Portugal / Montreal ISI F2 @ Mid Ohio / Spa 2011 ISI F1/F2/F3 @ Moncao / Belgium / Brianza / Nordschleife
Right now my favourite combo is Brabham at historic Spa and F2 at Nordschleife Former favourites are Corvette at modern Spa and Poznan, Lola's at Sebring and Mid-Ohio. No further explanations needed
Ritualistically doing a few laps of Lienz in the 370z or C6 at around 6-7pm every night has become quite enjoyable. I love the feel of the road surface, the climbs and descents, long sweeping bends and scenery. Especially when the in-game time is around sunset - beautiful.
C6 @ Malaysia. Why? I like layout of this track, especially fast corners in first, second and third sector... C6? I love engine sounds.
60's F2 cars at historic Spa Why? 1/ a visual treat 2/ with the suspension movement of the car - a real feeling of speed & danger ..as close as I've experienced in a sim anyway
Jeeze, I've found heaps that I love XD Pretty much any car and track ai. Faves below though. 60's F1 at either Monaco or Spa, such perfectly captured atmosphere and detail IMO, just feels great through the wheel and screen. Lola at Mid-Ohio, slipping and sliding round over the crests Skippy at LRP and Mid-Ohio...duh And what I've just been trying tonight is Poznan and the Renault 3.5. First time at Poznan, but I'm already loving the track and how fast and smooth it is. Probably have me sorted for the next couple of weeks XD
I like most cars on any ISI, feels3, Tuttle or VLM tracks. This one is quite fun but not against the AI as they are too slow lol.
This was a good thread because it made me think about trying other combinations I hadn't yet tried. I spent some time racing the Lola @ Malaysia. It was great fun! My usual combinations are Clio @ LRP and 350z/megane/clio @ Mills Metro OLA Skip barber @ 60s Monaco / Toban
370z at Hidden Valley, because I love the track. Skippy at LRP any layout, because it's hard work and fun.
