Hello everybody, ich submitted third place on Raceway 2 forward and in order to achieve this, I watched the videos from 1th and 2nd place. They seem to have much faster acceleration than normal , am I wrong or is there a way to get more speed than normal Mclaren F1 GTR?
Best regards
Hi, Shyanji's acceleration in his 1:13.81 - seems to be significantly faster than yours, but this is far from the main reason why his lap is 4.5 seconds faster than yours
[ I will not analyze SilkScarfed's 1:15.56, since on this track he is significantly slower than Shyanji ]
Your (RSxCloud) main problem is that you are losing Too Much speed in some critical corners. You brake (or release the gas) too hard, sometimes you brake too early. Besides, your racing line (trajectory) is often much worse than Shyanji's
If you improve your driving technique (namely the factors listed in the previous paragraph) - then you will be able to complete a lap on Raceway 2 about 1-2 seconds faster than you can now
. . . . .
And only after improving your driving technique, it makes sense to talk about the difference in car acceleration between you and Shyanji. The reason you accelerate slower than Shyanji, seems to be because you use an automatic transmission, which is slower than a manual (which Shyanji uses)
Speaking of specific numbers, at a Very High level of skill - I guess that on Raceway 2, a manual transmission will give about 1 second advantage over an automatic
BUT if you can't drive a manual transmission Fast, then I STRONGLY DO NOT RECOMMEND using manual, until you become Very Fast with an automatic
