he's been using brand xsssssss


New season, new series... gonna run the Footwork - Mugen Honda over at SRD League (a new division under rFR). With any luck, there will be no manipulation of results here. Yes, yes I'm still a bit upset over losing my podium and 9th place in the standings over at rFR last season. Can't help but wonder if the race would have still been DQed if Tom or Sven had won. Haha, first they take away your podium, then they show off their trophies and championships to rub your nose in it.

Anyway, this 1992 mod has been a tough drive so far. I'm about 2-3 seconds slower per lap than the fast guys. The car is twitchy, nervous, unstable over bumps and kerbs, and the tail just wants to come around in some corners. I've tried every setup trick I know to keep the back planted, but a heavy stab at the throttle will still make it spin. Gotta be much lighter on my feet, and the flickering throttle problem doesn't help at all. I should just buy a new wheel and pedals set, really.

Still, I have good feelings about this new series. Most of the other drivers are dividing their time with the main rFR Grand Prix and rFR Porsche, while I am concentrating on this classic 1992 mod. It could turn out to be an advantage come race time and over the course of the season.
