NASCAR/BTCC Handling

by Andy Jacks » Thu, 15 Feb 1996 04:00:00

I just got the WONDERFULL ICR2NCAR conversion program yesterday - GREAT!
I've been running BTCC cars at CLEVELAND and LAGUNA. (I just *LOVE*
driving around in that VOLVO 850 - pitty we can't have the Estate [thats
Station Wagon for our US cousins] version too).

Anyway - why do these cars appear to handle so badly?  It really
stinks at CLEVELAND.  With that really wide track, it'd be great
to be able to oversteer into the corners - but the damn things
ALWAYS understeer.  I've fiddled with STEERING LOCK and front/rear
spoilers - but withh little benefit.  Any QUICK ways to make these
tank oversteer?  I wanna be able to slide sideways round those
lovely wide corners.

Well done Gerhard!

1) loads of front wing, no rear wing.
2) 100% stiff rear shocks.
3) Lots of tyre pressure at the back end.
4) Give the steering a flick underbraking.

The AI of the cars at Cleveland is, unfortunatley, based on the AI for
ICR2 so it is a bit cruddy.
