Anybody set there "Active Stability Management" and "TCS Controller" to zero? Do you guys think you drive faster with assistance or without?

Also, has anybody played around with their limited slip differential settings: "Initial Torque", "Accel", "Decel"?

Anybody have seven forward gears on their cars?

got my Z06 up to 811hp - that oil change woke it up considerably!

took it to the endurance race and raced that darned oval for 100 laps, over an hour, lapped everyone so many times, got my 200 grand and also got the C5R - great car so far.

the C5R, you can do an engine mod and bring it up into the upper 900hp range.

Ah, thanks Schatten, that makes sense. Has anyone found a way to make the Escudo handle reasonably? That F90/S F-1 car kicks its ass on any course with curves. I tried backing down the front wheel drive-split and softening the front suspension for more turn-in, I even tried biased downforce to all front/no rear, but that thing is still a pig.

List of cars in my garage:

S2000
Audi TT
RUF RGT
C-West RAZO Silvia
New Beetle Cup Car
Corvette Z06
Camaro Race Car

Mine's Lancer Evolution
Lancer EVO VII Rally Car "Prototype"

FTO LM Race Car
Impreza LM Race Car

My favorite is the FTO LM Race Car......I want the S2000 LM Race Car and the Escudo!!

Anyone tried using two different type tires, one set for the front and one set for the rear? I have and it works well especially for the longer races IMHO.

Nine Grand, I recall getting it after the 100 lap Speedway race (which I won with the Z06).

Win all the rally races and you get a Escudo. Win the last Amateur race and you get a S2 LM 942 hp.

I used harder tires on the rear wheels on rwd cars and front tires on fwd cars.
