I agree. Now im back in the swing of it it's one of my favourite motors on there. Just not in the rain. Crank the boost to 5 bar and enjoy lag like no other..

We should setup a 98T challenge on here - all assists off - and see what we end up with!

Flol - tyre destroyer!
Haha thought I'd give Hockenheim Classic a go and it was troublesome
Also tried the lotus at Le Mans with the turbo set at 6bar (max)
Engine blew as I crossed the start line after my warm up lap lol

RS Clio 182
Ive gone back again to the Clio Cup to do it on 100% distance and 85% AI .....fantastic racing.
The below video is me battling for 3rd at Donington,this is what racing is all about,fighting the guy in front while the guy behind is also fighting me,putting in consistent laps while racing on the edge,and its swings and roundabouts for a few laps until i finally get past and finish 3rd. This is where the game really shines imo.
On lap 11 i do a great overtake to get 3rd but then the 5th placed guy comes through and takes both of us! This is where they really got the AI right,here. The 2nd race i actually won by 2 seconds,as i got more used to driving the track in the Clio again.

This is what I love about Project Cars and past F1 games, those long races where you're fighting lap by lap both on track and mentally through trying to process a strategy. I get far more enjoyment playing a single, 30 lap race than I do through a Category Competition in Forza.
The only things that lets Project Cars down for me is the lack of being able to save mid-game, which puts me off doing 25 plus lap races. Also, the pitting system, if your team mate pits and then you do, rather than double stack like in F1 you drive straight through which can absolutely ruin your race. You're not told that your team mates in the pits until they're actually IN the pit box having the tyres changed, it would be better if they told you 'Your team-mate is pitting this lap' on the radio.

Is this still buggy as f**k? Got a ps4 on the way, surely the issues have been sorted?
RS Clio 182
A lot of it has been sorted...some areas of the game like the Clio Cup work flawlessy imo. You just have to remember the weather patterns hehe. Thats a grey area of the game for me,when its light rain and im struggling,im not sure how much the AI struggle aswell.

Well, I got rid of this after not getting on with it on the controller on Xbox.
Last week, I went to a customer who has just bought a house to live in whilst his proper house gets refurbished and upgraded. Got talking about various things and he's had the double garage turned into a games room.
He's also started racing so needed something to practice.
After a few visits and talking he asked if I wanted to have a go, so he set me up in a Clio at Snetterton and this changes the game completely, he left me for half and hour and I was fully used to it.
I can't even play Forza now as it just feels wrong with a controller.
What wheels and setups are people using as I need one?!
I can't afford a Vesaro at £35k+ but have seen a couple of cheap seats and stands for £200, just wondering if the wheel I go for should have proper force feedback or is the bungee system in the 458 wheel good enough?

That's what I was afraid of, means £60 turns to £250!

Yes, m8.
A m8 of mine and I have been on Oulton a fair few times with a sprinkling of AI cars chucked in for good measure. I like that you can mix up the field - chucking all sorts of machinery into the same race.
Still playing the absolute f**k out of this.
Did a 4 hour enduro yesterday at Le Mans in a McLaren F1. Managed P3 which wasn't too bad considering I kept twatting the backmarkers and having to pit. Last 2 laps were epic as I had some suspension damage and had to reach the finish before P4 caught up with me. As an aside, I love the dirt accumulating on the cars as time draws on - nice touch.

I've never got on with Assetto Corsa. I've tried like hell to get all the settings right and it still doesn't feel at all realistic to me. Don't get me wrong, you can't get the arse end out on Pcars in a lot of cars, but it's still realistic enough to not piss me off constantly.
RS Clio 182
After a couple of months on F1 2016,i had a blast on Pcars on the Nordshcleife for the first time in ages - wow the graphics are in another level to F1...i played at 6am and loved the way the sun blinded you at times. The game still feels immense to play.
Im planning on getting Asetto Corsa in a few weeks...but i can see me being disappointed with it as i love certain elements in Pcars like dynamic time of day.
The physics,realism and ferraris of AC appeals to me though.

I'm late to the party here, got the GOTY edition on discount from PSN.
Best £30 I spent.
I am shockced that, for a car game, there isn't at least 1 standard MX5 though, the hideous wel-sik, redbull monstrosity can go suck it's own boost pipe. I want to do laps of Cadwell in a 1.8.
The Sauber though.......ooooft.

I know. The one for Assetto Corsa doesn't work any more either, annoyingly.
Love the Sauber. And the CLK GTR (LM) too.
I think I spend nearly all my non-career laps on the MSV tracks. The Sauber doesn't take well to the club section of Cadwell, but the Snetterton 200 is a proper game
Who else has all the damage modelling switched on? I dont get why you wouldn't, other than to make the game easier.
Errything on.
I love driving the Focus RS too. The Meganes are twitchy as f**k - Oh, you used something other than full throttle whilst turning the steering wheel? Allow me to pitch you into a wall backwards. Even under full throttle the arse sometimes comes out.

Front wheel drive? What is this, a pass plus scheme?
Mk1 Escort is a thing of beauty.
Better?
Better?
much.
I struggle to balance Mid-engine cars on this game. Far harder than in the GT games. At least with FR cars, you're not instantly in the fence when you have to correct mid-sweeper
RS Clio 182
The R8 LM that came in the Audi DLC is an absolute epic car to drive.
Wasnt too keen on the Ruapuna track tho,its so flat.

The only ones I don't really like are the Megane Trophy, RXC Turbo and the 12C. The rest I've found pretty easy to drive tbh, even that horrible looking W motors Hyelashckan Hyperedgy.

Looking to get a PS4 and this game.
What wheels/setups do people recommend?
I've seen the Thrustmaster TX150, looks alright.

Annoyingly I would say that that's about the only real option at that price point since you can't use a Logitech G27 with a PS4.
A T300RS is a much better wheel if you can stretch to that.

What about the Logitech G29?
The Thrustmaster is the slightly better quality wheel, although the G29 comes with a clutch pedal (although no shifter as standard with either wheel).
Megane R26
The thrustmaster looks so cheap compared to the g29 though imo

What do you guys use for mounting the wheel, just a table or a proper stand?
