I noticed this too when I was doing hotlaps in the XFG. When punching it at the apex it would start to oversteer

I had a little TBO action yesterday on Aston North. I drove the XRT and was being chased by a FXO. It was a pretty close race all the way through. Noticed that the FXO could brake later and that I would pull away going out of the corners. Down the straights it was pretty much even. Only places I struggled was in the hairpin and slow corners where it seemed easier for the FXO to turn. Maybe my XRT setup was too understeery?

But yeah I deffinitely think that its much closer now. My best lap was mid 1.22 and the FXO drove a 1.21.99

I've been playing around with the XRT in patch T and these are the things I've changed in the Easy Race setup to make this car enjoyable and easy to drive

rideheight changed from 0.100 / 0.095 to 0.090 / 0.090
stiffness changed from 48.5 / 55.6 to 60.0 / 70.0
Toe in front from -0.1 to 0.0
Toe in rear from +0.1 to 0.0
clutch pack LSD from 20% / 40% to 25% / 45%
camber front from -0.2 / -0.2 to -1.6 / -1.6
camber rear from -1.0 / -1.0 to -1.8 / -1.8

This works really well for me. Stille a little understeery in the hairpins but overall its pretty good.

Lapped AS North in 1.22.xx

I have mostly been driving the XRT since patch T and I simply love it now. Had a few good races yesterday with some dSRC members racing the TBO's on KY National. general Al had made a FXO setup that they used and I used a modified patch Q FE Green setup, and I was able to keep up. Even lead the race for a whole lap lol

With a good XRT setup I believe that it will be able to compete with the FXO but its too early to tell. Anyone driven the RB4. Is it competitive?

Eza from DSRC did a good list of the changes here:

that list does not match what danowat wrote??

doh :doh:

note to self: Read stickies then SEARCH forum

I've looked through the Live for Speed S2 Version S (NOW T) sticky thread and there was no info on which cars have been tweaked.

I dont have patch Q anymore so I cant check for myself. So which cars have been tweaked??

Bob im a big fan of your setups but since the new patch is out the cars understeer like mad. Are you planning an update of the currents easy race setups??

Anyone know or read if the LX6 and RB4 will get updated for the new patch? I recall something about people not wanting to spend time skinning these cars as they were not updated

The number 2 is sadly not really doing it for me.

Quote from danowat :

LMAO, I would certainly hope not mate

Dan,

lol that made me laugh

campare the XRT to the FXO on Fern Bay Green

I dont think the patch will come out on the 22nd. How would they have a competition on the same day as the patch is released?? It would atleast have to be released on the 21st for Intel to get prepped

Quote from danowat :

That set I posted had a bit more toe than it has now when I first got it, plus the front camber was way excessive so I dialed about 0.4 degs out of it.

Yes, it understeers a little, but I can live with that, and above 50mph its very stable.

The only times I found it would bite would be if you lock the rears underbraking by engine braking, trail braking doesnt do much favours either, or give it to much beans on corner exit.

Other than that feels really planted to the road to me, but it will bite no doubt about it if you drop your guard.

Dan,

i knew i remembered that name from somewhere. I was the one who gave you the setup. I also find it as a problem that the left front tire is burning hot. What toe-in did you change and was it 0.4 less camber on both front tires?

maybe its the lx8 that was too outta control for s2 alpha??

people should just get their hopes up for april 30th release. If its out sooner well that would be a pleasent surprise

"We know that Scawen took time off after the release of S2 Alpha. What have you (Victor) AND ERIC been up to?"

The interview was intended for all of them but scawen and eric chose not to comment. Guess they're working hard

subscribe to the newsletter. If they are not sending out a newsletter it probably means that nothing new we dont already know about has been done.

ok to finally put a [solved] on this case. A few days after my previous post my video card died. Got a new one now and no problems at all.

yea Danish,

we are teh win

I can make the game crash when I want to. Its the Audio option "Skid Volume Boost". Default its set to 2.0 but if I set it to 3.0 my gave will crash/lockup with 5 laps of a race.

Note to all: Do not fiddle with Skid Volume Boost

unless its only the case with my onboard soundcard on a MSI mobo with Intel chipset

Quote from gatorman :

After a week of work I guess this is the first render that satisfies me. Still some things I want to tweak, though.

great floor material, is that standard or ?

If anyone figures out how to display the headlights please make a new thread as I cant make em appear. always blacked out like in your render
