hi,

after installing the v2 patch a week ago, i was embarrassed to find i
couldn't complete a lap without crashing / spinning off all the time.

i had enabled throttle assistance (low) then and still found it to be
very difficult to drive the cars.  admittedly i didn't have any great
setups, but I was extremely frustrated.

since installing the 2.1 patch, it suddenly seems a lot easier.   i
don't think its practise or anything as I haven't played it since.  i
followed the readme and disabled tyre wear and lowered the damage
threshhold, but I'm sure that can't be the reason.

was version 2 really harder to drive then 2.1?  I have only driven the
360 and GT3 in V2 and the 550,  GT3 and lister in 2.1 so far.  I don't
get much time to race these days, so I haven't had time to
comprehensively compare all cars.

Regards all,
istoff

No nothing in the physics were changed on those cars. Only the GT2-Porsche
Turbo got slighty more front splitter...

"istoff" <
   recently scared the daylights outta my DTM touring car league as I
cataloged the various reasons I wasn't getting enough practice in for the
upcomming event.  Needless to say trying to hang onto the Big V10 in the
Viper at Spa was a major culprit.
