The Ginetta G40 Junior is a “feel good” car in E and D classes. With nice track composition series.

The C class series in the OCT track compo is the best :ok_hand: :+1:

The only downside -since update 7- is the server stability issue. Had to restart the game every other race and skip practice.

Is it just me or the base tune on that lotus 3-eleven is awful?

Unresponsive,understeery and it skitters if you hit a curb… I bought it and then i sold it as i couldn’t fix it myself. (i did spend about 10 minutes trying to) And if you were to rent the car you’d probably have an awful time since you won’t even be able to tune the tire pressure which all over the place. It’s a like a randmizer picked the values for it.

When will we get a new topic for the 2nd featured tour? 1H before start?
