    What? Which shoes are you hitting the limit on when you run?

    No, he's talking specifically - and at great length - about making the car slide to drive faster. He describes 4 hypothetical drivers to that end. A who drives under the limit. B who drives faster and experiences some sliding, C who goes over the limit too far and slides too much, and D who uses sliding to get the fastest lap times. Sliding. He's clear, not slip angle. Every car being driven at any speed gets slip. He's clear. Practically every other word : Slide, slide, slide, sliding, slide, sliding, slide, slide for 20 minutes. I saw your other reply and knew I couldn't show you something with someone mentioning slide once. I had to find something that made it clear over and over. And you still rejected it. I can only suggest watching it again with a view that you're not being pedantic but your belief is flawed.

    Confusing for some, perhaps is you can think you're fast driving like B - I mean you're leaving anyone driving like A for dead and you're as fast as the hooligan at C who is visibly losing control and fighting the car. You have the double advantage over C that by not pushing too hard you can be more consistent than them, get less tyre wear etc - so over many laps you'd likely beat them. You probably never see any Ds. But it's still slow compared with D.

    And saying cars are engineered to slide doesn't mean instead of gripping. I wasn't suggesting they are going to lubricate the tyres or forgo an opportunity for more grip. But grip is finite. It means cars are designed with the limits of friction in mind so that they slide when they run out of grip. Consider what the alternative to sliding would be when you ran out of grip. Cars slide - and specifically the fastest way to drive them means sliding.

    Sliding isn't a bug it's a feature.

    Put together a picture what is what, at least i think these are the correct cars attached, and the Le Mans 2005 comparison to current, the only real layout difference is the first chicane, rest of the 24H layout is the same, of course differences will be mainly in aesthetics !
    EDIT: Edited with the correct cars.

    Glad to know he you guys found each other. There were many cars and tracks that were too much for me prior to the update. Now I gain confidence in car after car. I find time to race every day now!

    Hi Renato, so if I understand correctly, this is a „limitation“ from Steam and not from you guys?

    The C3 corvettes are not new content, they are the three versions we have in the game.

    Thanks, I also anwered to that post. I just wanted to be sure :D
    I‘m not sure if I will buy the content full price, tbh honest I thought with GT3‘s coming to LMU I will never touch AMS2 again, but turns out that I‘m not a big fan of the GT3 cars in LMU and that I like the AMS GT3 Gen2 cars in 1.6 more - with clutch setup to 2. So far, i havent tried LFM or Just Race, maybe I will, maybe not.

    Very surprising a 2005 Layout is being used i was expecting a 90-01 Layout for the GT1 and GTPC cars.
    I guess its safe to say that Reiza isnt finished with AMS2 Just yet.....

    I don't care how much the inevitable DLCs would cost, the GTR2 fanatic in me has immediately had my wallet snatched by the mere thought of mid 2000s GT1 representation in AMS2 :eek:

    You don't want to know how much I'd be willing to pay to have the Isle of Man TT track in AMS2.

    Hmm… NASCAR Generation 3 has no Camaro ZL1
    but Generation 6 has the ZL1
    So I guess Reiza is making their own Generation categories by skipping a few historic gens

    I'm guessing it's the Gen7 Camaro as that's what currently races in NASCAR

    Is the ERS set for fuel efficiency also in TT mode? Does it still pump out full beans 100% of the lap irrespective of battery in TT? Have not yet tried it since v1.6

    Too bad there's only a handful of us willing to pay enough to warrant the massive development costs :(
