Not so great for you 😂 Lols 😅 it's probably also a bit because of the type of tracks, no real long straights so it's all about them corners and then a lot Supers are probably very similar. 1 Link to comment https://www.rockstarsocialclub.net/forums/topic/147-srl-vans-crew-chat/page/4/#findComment-2970 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if I will get any practice in before tomorrow now. I got very similar times to you Chubb with the Cheetah coming out on top. It feels like I'm going slower in that car but I think it's because the revs are lower and it's more stable. It's a shame none of us have taken the 811 for a spin.... 1 Link to comment https://www.rockstarsocialclub.net/forums/topic/147-srl-vans-crew-chat/page/4/#findComment-2975 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be surprised if the really fast guys use it but the Cheetah is more predictable and consistent and that's my thing in this event so I'm going with that. 1 Link to comment https://www.rockstarsocialclub.net/forums/topic/147-srl-vans-crew-chat/page/4/#findComment-2977 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Dave, if the Guru can’t control it I’ll have no chance. Saves me even having a run through. 👍 Also I’ll be on mute tonight guys, so I’ll say good luck to all the Vansters now and remember last round so last chance to pick up some points!

Paulie 1,006 Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 I was struggling too last night but like thelast round I enjoyed the off-road track the most of the night 😅 I have some busy times ahead but I am also not totally sure if i'll be joining the next season of rounds. I really liked the format overall but there are also a couple factors that complicate things. For instance the ghosting is sometimes really distractive in some situations and I had often a hard time with it. The curb boosting is another thing, it makes racing pretty different with those crazy lines and I myself just keep forgetting to use these curbs also. It's just not in my nature probably, but this will count for us all a bit I think. And to be honest 4 times a 15 minute race on a sunday is maybe a bit too much for mister Paulie and the 100% concentration that it needs. 😅 But we'll see when the time is there. Cheers all it was good fun to be part of the Vans/Xero Racing team and well done to Davey boy for the great results troughout the season and standing out as our No.1 driver! 😃👏 1 Link to comment https://www.rockstarsocialclub.net/forums/topic/147-srl-vans-crew-chat/page/4/#findComment-3013 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The non-contact blur really seemed to be exaggerated last night for some reason, on the last track (maybe due to my tiredness) I really suffered on the first two laps when we were all bunched together. The curb boosting is a factor but not a major one for me, most of the tracks only allowed a minimum amount of boosts and I didn’t have to drive drastically differently avoid being slower. The racing was great fun in general, got to do some intense racing in a variety of cars which is never a bad thing. Not really sure how I feel about the handicap system, pros and cons for me. However it will be more finely tuned for Season 2. I am currently undecided about Season 2, if it was just turn up and race then I would more than likely be there but going in cold would be a real disadvantage. You need to consider your choice of car then get some laps in with that car, with Time Trials and Race Club up and running things are a little busy right now. Lets see what the new Season brings, I am sure the legend that is Dave will be up for more, maybe Mulder too. Maybe their enthusiasm will bring us all back for more. 👍 Edited April 1, 2019 by JuniorChubb 1 Can you smell what the Stone is cooking?
