Once it settled down I could start working on finding speed, but doing that in a race is much harder than free practice. Overall, I thought the ARX was great and having 2 pit stops was really interesting. I'd like to stick with this car for a few more weeks.

As to whether to password it, I'm also on the fence. We will get a few idiots for sure and a lot more first lap incidents. The field will be bigger, but I like racing with the good group of guys we have now. We are pretty chill and can come chat about our races on Rennlist. If I'm going to race with a field of unknowns for 1/2 an hour I'd rather do it in an official series. After typing that, I think I'd prefer a passworded series and a bigger participation drive in rennlist and F-chat.

Maybe next week we should head across the pond and try SPA. The big tracks are a lot of fun with this car.

I love the LMP, we'd run it every week if it were up to me I'll set the fuel load at 30% so hopefully it will be a 1 stop race.

Spa? works for me if it works for everyone else.

Any advice?

Yep. it seems that once people get the G25-27's they hold onto the wheel and upgrade other aspects of the sim. I haven't seen a good wheel for sale locally in a long time.
