    Hi I was wondering if you guys could select a car from GT3 World Series mod and then with default set up run a few laps around palm springs road course A and let me know what kind of times you do, thanks ;)

    Thanks :) because the AI lap times at 100 setting seem impossible to achieve.

    Ok, so here's the rub: :)
    I did each car, from the top down, in order, then went back and gave the first two another try as I had familiarized with the track some(been a while since I drove here ;))
    As requested, I drove each with default setup, the only adjustment being that I set fuel to 20L.
    Each car, I drove until I hit a decent lap, and continued from there until I crashed. Some cars I did more laps than others, so I captured the multiple laps on the timesheet. :cool:
    The track settings were the same each time:

    0 AI, so I was the only one making rubber, and it was reset with each car to "Testteam_medium"
    Here are the cars and their times.

    Overall, I found the cars enjoyable, but the only ones that I felt had good FFB was the Camaro(probably ISI) and the Lambo. The McLaren was mostly there(ffb), but lacked where most of the others did, which was going up and down, on and off the oval. With the Camaro and Lambo, you could really feel each wheel pull in its own way, as it contacted the bank of the oval. The rest just gave a little kick each time, and it felt... artificial is the only way I can describe it.
    Keeping in mind that each car was only default, Im sure the feeling could be improved. I also did not mess with ffb settings, leaving car specific at 1 and smoothing at 0.
    With some time, rubber, and a good setup; I could probably get 2-4 seconds faster with each car. If you want, pick your favourite, and I will try to set it up proper and see what kind of laps I can turn. :)

    Hope this helps!
    Cheers,
    rocket

    Hmm, I will try to make a good setup for the Lambo, and maybe the Ferrari, and see what kind of times I can do.

    When these laps are set, how much rubber is on the track? And what is the ambient temperature?
    Also, if you set up a 15-20 lap race, what are their race laps like?

    Qualifying conditions so no rubber at all really, about 17c i think it was, race pace 1:23's - i put the hardness down to 95% seemed more realistic for this course.

    Yeah, AI are more affected by the track than the mod itself, from what I understand of rF modding.(Which isnt all that much :D)
