5 hours later, I'd say my little test/ fun night went well :cool:
Shout out to @Pierre CREUSEVAULT for confirming everything worked as intended!
Hope the volume was ok for you & my music wasn't off putting :pompous:
May have to get a webcam so people can see me sweating & fingering my controller (calm down @Darksi, child :woot:)
Though getting permission to talk from the woman is another story...

50/50 if I can join tonight. Internet is beyond terrible at the moment, keeps disconnecting and it seems the work VPN takes a couple of minutes to sort itself out for every blip in connection. It seems to settle down in the evenings so will see what it is like later.

Have others in the UK had really bad internet recently? I rarely get more than 10MB download, 4MB upload in the daytime despite paying for Virgin 100MB at the moment. Not sure whether it’s worth bothering contacting my ISP (they don’t make it easy) or if the whole grid is just overloaded at the moment.

I have a BT Business line and it has been very average here over the last few months. I'm averaging 20 down/7 up and supposed to be getting near 100mb download.

Anyone got any setup tips for this car? Tried the stable setup and I spin in pretty much every corner. The back just slides away as soon as I lift off the throttle going into any corner.

Thanks.

Setup tips? Dont bother, I will say this, if you struggled with the Merc in the revolution cup, you're gonna struggle even more with this.
I've been throwing this on the time trials, I've beaten most peoples times with custom setups by on average, over a second... using defaults...
Edit* Setups locked to default :pompous:

It's a very rewarding car to drive if you can master the weight transfer... its very floaty mid corner, dont be afraid to let the ass swing out. It absolutely needs to be driven on the edge of grip. Have a look at my stream from last night to see how I "treat" this car around a multitude of corners.

I had a look at your stream, but it's very difficult to judge your inputs as you're using a controller. You can come on and off the throttle in an instant, whereas using pedals is totally different. I'll keep practicing and just hope I don't get lapped too many times....
