The Imp is the star - followed byt eh NSU and then the (flaswed) mini...
Don't forget that if you change car during a session, the timing system will not record all your best laps...

The NSU feels like its got a V8 , the torque is tremendous for a 1200cc , no way can the Imp live with it , but nice car to drive

There was nothing between them in terms of lap times or general performance…
I did do a quick compare of the engine files and couldn’t see any differences - there’s no engine power/torque multiplier in the main .HDV file either.
I’ll take a closer look later - but I suspect the only difference is the go-faster racket the engine makes!

Its got bags of grip on the rear end compared to imp so you can carry more speed through corners but the way it punches out of corners is remarkable , this could be very good car for some close racing
RE: Pocket Rockets - deecee52 - 06-01-2024
I think your right the TT sound gives impression of speed , but both cars are under geared they top out very easily

I’ve already reached out to Mauro to see if he can connect the dots for a league edition. He pointed me at a thread from the bloke who converted the cars and seems to be generally happy with LE mods.
I don’t propose big changes - mebbe just slightly more flexible (or tweaked) gearing, mebbe make the tyres a bit more robust without changing the grip, mebbe lock down the rear camber if you want that originality…
We’d also sort out the ropey packaging (random icon sizes etc.) and mebbe create a handful of alternate liveries for those that can’t do their own….

Unsticking thread.
