Great!
I’ve managed to put an hour on the track this morning - first in the Aston and then in the Porsche. I was going to do the Ferrari next but my partners gym class was cancelled and she’s home an hour early!
I’ve settled on 90% AI too. It was on 93% yesterday and the difference seems quite significant!
I was running 50% tanks on softs - not sure what real-road setting is. I’ve managed 1:47.5s in both cars, both on Dave setups. I found the Aston really quite easy to drive - and possibly a good bet for a long stint. The Porsche moves around quite a lot more and seems quite keen to lock and flat spot the front tyres - but I haven’t really tried moving the brake bias backward yet.
For me, one feature that might decide which car I use is the dash design! The Porsche wheel dash is ‘in my face’ and requires an effort to focus on after looking down the road (my eyesight…). The shift lights are not particularly grabbing my attention.
The Aston feels further away and reasonably comfortable. The Ferrari has a fixed dash - from memory, a bit far away to read that clearly! Haven’t tried the Corvette yet.
I’m warming to LMU after such a long stint away though - the graphical performance is excellent compared to rf2 and it’s a wonder why ACC and AC Evo are such rubbish in VR given a similar-ish graphical richness and feel. I also like the extra layer of drama that having LMPx cars weaving around the GTEs brings….
