Good times tigg! I'll do this after the league I run!

I'll be doing the NXS live tomorrow, but with the DMR 16 mod since it has a DARN CAR SET!

Cup will be done live Tuesday.

I think I have every 2018 NXS car for the NXS17 mod. I could send them over to you if you'd like. They all have real life ratings.

 

[The_Tigg]

Give me the link please.

 

[JacobTB_14]

Give me the link please.

I'll have to put them into a file for you. I'll send it to you ASAP.

 

[The_Tigg]

OK, thanks.

 

[The_Tigg]

I now have a set for the NXS 17 mod, thanks the the good members we have here, THANKS GUYS!

NXS 17 Practice 32.621 Race 33.388

 

[JacobTB_14]

Cup: 32.562

 

[AlexMiller]

Well.... I tried.... That's about it.
No matter what I adjusted I just couldn't get it quite right. The front just lacked that mid-corner grip it needed to get on the throttle early. Kind of like what Harvick was dealing with during real world Qualifying.

Was getting pretty close to the wall for me though.
Best lap:
32.595(Lap 24 on the Lap thing)

With what little practice I've done with this mod/track combo I've gotten to a 32.8, so you're right one. If you're trying for real world speeds, don't, you'll never get them with major alteration to the ini file and that's not the point of hot lapping. The point of hot lapping is taking what you're doing and getting the best lap you can. I'm wondering if @Highbank should start doing fixed set ups for these things since we've been doing them for so long, just to add some verity.

I'm not going for real world times. But I feel like if I can get the car to turn through the center I can probably knock a few more tenths off it, maybe even get to a 31 if I really push.
