Quote from IsaacPrice :

Yes, it's due to the way the diff is in some of the cars in iRacing. Open diff = lift off oversteer, on power understeer. The fastest way in those cars is to control the oversteer with how much throttle you use under braking. I wouldn't really compare it to XRR, it's much more like if you drive a UF1 as that has an open diff.

I meant more for heavy braking but yes like the UF1.

Quote from FireMike15 :

Long time ago I drove with the MX5 last time, but I'm surprised about those reallife opinions there Teemu. Nevertheless I just can't handle that car, perfectly...
Does the SRF spinned that way, too? I tested it I guess a year ago and it was kinda undriveable for me back then.

But there's something I recognized in iRacing at my driving-style, it's the braking while doing slight turns, then braking abit harder in the middle of the turn which makes the car always oversteer and spin finally, in most of the iR cars. Happends often to me driving fast turns where slight braking is required.
Happend last time in the RUF Track at Turn 2-3 at Philips Island, I really had to slow down pretty much for avoiding spinning which caused people wrecking my rear in the mid of the corner because going so slow. What I'm doing wrong?

It has its moments but nothing like the MX5, I found it alot more stable. And my way to counter what you described is to throttle blip or hold it slightly.

Not sure if it's the right thing to do but it helps for me. Bit like the XRR I guess.

Just start racing the Spec Ford, really fun car and very competitive grid for rookie class.

Yes, that's like saying rFactor is still active online because there is a league race every now and then.

Quote from The Moose :

The word fanboy should be struck from the vocabulary. It seems you're not allowed to like anything these days without being called one.

I wasn't stating you're a fanboy on the fact you enjoy playing the game, more the sudden abuse of someone with an issue. Troll or not, It's still funny.

i love how all the fanboys come out in full force

Quote from -NightFly- :

Marvellous phone, bought my gf a new sony, was choosing between z and z1, chose Z since it's basically the same as Z1, just a tad smaller and camera has less pixels. Also Z was lot cheaper over here .

I have the Z too, just be very careful when you take the charger cable out of the charger port, the bit inside is really delicate

I found this out the hard way

Quote from seniecka :

I always hate when some stupids overreact and come to instult you personally for no reason. Seriously?
As a specator, I just expressed my view on the case. I've stated it before an actual explanation from Kamui came out. Despite of that, it doesn't change the fact you can't simply divebomb into the bunch of cars, especially when brakes are cold. You need to keep the distance, and it's not the first time when japanese drivers do that. Call it stereotypical, but it's the way it is. T. Sato acted in such way, K. Nakajima as well, now Kamui's turn. They are simply too agressive.

Roland, you can badum tss in your ass.

I guess it's hard not to divebomb when you're brakes arn't stopping your car.

Quote from Eclipsed :

The FFB is pretty much buggy there. Yesterday was trying out the new car (you know,that Pagani Huabalaya thing) in Valelunga,after one mistake I ended up stopping with front on track and rear in grass and the FFB went bizerk with rattling all the time until I moved the car,even if the car was in standstill at that point (managed to do it again on different track part semi-intentionally). CBA to register to AC forums and write a bug report,if someone has noticed similar thing,write there!
(For the record - I use DFGT with the fake effects turned off)

I'm not a AC fanboy but, no.

Quote from tikshow :

They changed the tyre model for the MX5 and for a couple of other cars to the new version. But I was faster with the new one then the old, at least on Lime Rock.

so im just being shit then? thought so, either im doing something terrible wrong or im just incredibly rusty :S

it seems in mx5 at okayama short, that i cant get close to my PB that i did back in 2012. My pb being a 1:02.143, now my best that i can get is a 1:03:70 and i really feel I cant go any faster.

has something changed or am i just being shit?
