Bugatti was still the best one. But, Maison Blanche was a pleasant surprise.

It's a perfect example of the difference between sc and tubbie. In a straight line mine was a match in acceleration, out of the tighter corners your linear torque allowed the tyres to grip and gathered pace, were-as my bucket load of torque and ham fisted footed approach to the throttle only resulted in wheelspin. :rolleyes:

Really enjoyed the session, just a pity it was so short.

Dave, Does your Stage 2 have a charge cooler? You definitely need one if you want to play on track for long stints. When are you upgrading your car? Jimmy, Looking good mate! As Dave said, great traction out of the bends. This is why the supercharged car's do so well, it's also where the biggest improvements in time come from on track. If you get out of the bends quick, virtually no one can catch you along the straights, unless it's a very long straight & the car behind has plenty of extra grunt, maybe! ...It would be good to get a few car's together for a track day this year, maybe Silverstone, Oulton, or Donny?

Max, the problem I had on the video was my own stupid fault, I dared go out with only half a tank and of course got fuel starvation :beat: What was an annoyance at Maison Blanche became a real pain in the arse at Bugatti when I was getting starvation after using only 10ltrs :angry2: Why mine is so susceptible to this I have no idea but I have to do something before I do some real damage to the engine. And no Max I have not got a charge cooler :rolleyes: :lol:

Yes please. Although I did Le Mans, I spent both days lapping on my own, I really missed out on a good battle.

Nope, still not HD resolution. Just DVD quality. But, the bit rate for recording on the III is much improved over the earlier versions, so it wont have to compress each frame as much and quality will look better as a result.
