NEW TIPS!!!!!!!!!!
IF YOU THINK YOUR CAR SPEED IS STILL POOR AND YOUR CAR FEEL VERY
UNDERSTEER?
YOU CAN TRY THIS NEW TIPS. THIS TIPS LITTLE EXTREME BUT REALLY
WORKING IN ALL CAR AND MOST CIRCUIT IN THIS GAME (EXCEPT JEREZ)
YOU MUST TURN THE IMPACT PROTECTION OFF.
AT THE RACE YOU MUST CRASH YOUR CAR UNTIL YOUR CAR DONT HAVE ANY FRONT WING
REMEMBER, DON'T CRASH TOO HARD.
MAXIMUM SPEED ALLOWED IS 80 MPH. OR 110 KM/H.
NOW, YOUR CAR WILL RUNNING WITH MORE TOP SPEED.
I CAN RUN UNTIL 215 MPH WITH FERRARI IN MONZA CIRCUIT
MAYBE, YOUR CAR HANDLING WILL BE DECREASED BY 3 POINTS
STABILITY WILL DECREASED BY 2 POINTS
BUT YOUR TOP SPEED INCREASED BY 4 POINTS.
ACCELERATION WILL BE INCREASED BY 3 POINTS
BRAKING WILL BE INCREASED BY 2 POINTS
GREAT DEAL FOR MAXIMUM SPEED BENEFIT, RIGHT!!
ALL CAR WILL FEEL MORE UNDERSTEER
THIS FANTASTIC PHENOMENON IS REAL.
THE FRONT WING WEIGHT IS LOSS
SO THE POWER TO WEIGHT RATIO IS DECREASED
THE DOWNFORCE IS LOWER TOO
THERE IS NO MORE FORCE IN TO GROUND IN FRONT BIAS
THE HANDLING IS MORE LOOSE AND MORE LIKE FLYING
THE CAR LENGTH IS DECREASED TOO
IN SOME CIRCUIT LIKE MONACO, ALBERT PARK, AND INDIANAPOLIS
THE CAR DIMENSION IS VERY REALLY IMPORTANT.
THE BIGGER THE CAR, MORE DIFFICULT TO DRIVE
OTHERWISE, THE SMALLER THE CAR, IT IS EASIER TO DRIVE.
THIS TIPS AND TRIVIA IS BROUGHT BY MY RACING CLUB IN MY COUNTRY.
