that F40 one is a good challenge. I did try their suggestion of CS tires on front but it didn't feel good for me

I think if you want Ferrari fun it'll be better at TOC tonight hint hint

I noticed I have some work to do to close the gap on your nice time.

thx Dude get to it. Feldynn's suggestion to raise the ride height a touch may have helped, or.... I just got a lucky lap in

You will find mine stolen and burnt to a crisp in some farmer's field.
It's only worth the insurance money.

If this is anything like the Viper seasonal @Matterhorn prior it is ridiculous and completely lacking logic. It is a high performance sports/supercar on a dry track. Even in stock form it did not have the worst set of sports tires available to them furthermore it is beyond my imagination to think even the biggest dumbass that could afford one of these in real life is going down to his local WalMart to pick up a new set of rubber when the time comes due. So why is PD insistent on that being the case for these events. They want for it to be a bigger challenge then give us something realistic put it on a wet track but to deliberately sabotage the setup of the car is silly to put it politely or downright effin' stupid to be more blunt. The following is a quote from Car and Driver during their test of a then new F40;

" The F40 responds like a race car: directly, instantaneously. The grip in the corners is tenacious—1.01 g, our skidpad test revealed, better than any production car we've ever tested. We pushed harder. It felt like the tires were rolling in foot-deep grooves in the road; there was no sideslip, even at sensational cornering speeds."

This will hardly match any one of our descriptions for driving this car from this seasonal so who at PD has their head so far up their own ass that they cannot see the light and believes this seasonal makes any sense? When they do illogical things such as this, it tarnishes their credibility as providers of a realistic sim experience.

Ha! I used that review to pull PDI's chain. I will let you know if I get any feedback from them about the Seasonal.

Send them my whole post for all I care. And I would love to hear any response from them not that I would actually expect one. I just think they need to be closer to what real life would serve up for the seasonals.

Well shoot, I did get to it, but then you got to it, so now I need to get back to it.

I did go back to it but was unable to improve

Good lap Soks. I spent half my lap sideways... if you let completely off the gas it's bad news bears.

If I get some free time I'll have to put a tune on this thing and give it a whirl
