I set up the track this morning and ran a time trial with the new SCP-1 controller. I used the Ghost setting and dialed each car to take the track as fast as it could without going off, then I timed each car running alone. Here is the track I used for the time trial:
RESULTS:
5 Minute Overall Time
CAR LAPS
Audi R18 85
Audi Safety Car 95
The R18 suffered a spinout at around lap 40, and it didn't seem to have the grip the Safety Car had, so it couldn't run as high of a speed. This was a surprising result, and the first win for the Safety Car since I started keeping track. I have a feeling that was due to not using the 1/30 curves. Those are almost always switchbacks of some sort, and the Safety Car doesn't handle those well.
I didn't do any tuning to the cars prior to running the time trails. Just a quick dusting off of the track and away we went. The R18 suffered for it, and should have at least gotten a quick scrub with the sandpaper. The tires are hard and I believe going to crack soon. Nothing like the other car's tires.
