What effect does damage have on you car???

does it slow the car down alot, or mostly just a visual effect?



also, l seem to always get my fastest lap (time trial) on the first lap of a rolling start................

my other laps always seem to be slower, is this the result of damage or of me just driving crap?:rolleyes:

yeh, damage slows you down alot, for instance a blown engine stuffs your overall speed and acceleration, worn tires stuff traction, and steering makes you turn the way on what side the steerings stuffed

yes, when you do a rolling start it means you have a brand new car and if you are a bad driver like me then you will hit a couple off walls,dmaging the engine or maybe hang the arse out too much and wear tires which means lap 2 will be slower even if you are driving better than lap 1

hope that made sense

yep made sense thanx mate-^ :D

now i gotta remember that forest elbow DOES NOT have a rubber wall to bounce me back (it looks like that when i hit it, but it realli does slow me down:mad: ).


l also never take the corner of bathurst as good as the first lap of every race:confused:

hmm, glad i'm not the only one!

can anyone tell me the best revs to start a standing start? i seem to drop 3 or 4 positions at the start all the time. esp from pole position (p.p)

when having anti-spin off, i just having it revving to hell.

on second thought, it will knock back to no revs anyway when you start.

try changing gera ratios of first and second to plenty of acceleration otherwise just turn AI to easy^_^
