Morning fellow simracers, After I've figured out that there is some false information at the webpage, I've started to check the given information whenever we use a new class of cars. So this week the GTR-X is on our plate, and to my deepest regrets, the given information at the webpage is wrong again. The following data is provited by different sources: The RUF CTR3 has a weight of 1.375kg and not 1.050kg, the model of 2007 has 691hp, the model of 2012 has 740hp and the current model has 777hp. Sources: - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruf_CTR3 - http://ruf-automobile.de/modell/ctr3-clubsport/ The Gumpert Apollo Sport has a weight of 1.200kg and not 1.050kg. Sources: - https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gumpert_Apollo#2005.E2.80.932013 The Pagani Zonda R has a dry weight of 1.070kg and not 1.050kg Sources: - https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pagani_Zonda#Technische_Daten - http://www.pagani.com/zonda/zonda_R/default.aspx And last but not least, we have the Koenigsegg CCGT, which has a dry weight of 1.000kg plus a ballast of 100kg to reach the minimum weight, and 640+hp. Sources: - http://koenigsegg.com/ccgt/ - http://luxusautos.welt.de/koenigsegg/edition/ccgt/04956/ So please update this. Another topic I'd like to adress, sometimes I'm missing some feedback. I know it is vacation time, at the moment there are no fixes/updates/whatever due to this time of the year, but I'd like to get at least a response like "We're looking into it" if a bug gets adressed. For example, I've stated two time within this thread at least two out of four cars of the Silhouettes wont work with a triple screen setup, but no response at all, concerning this topic. Last Saturday I've posted the information, that there is something wrong with the the fuel calculation and the RGT12R is sometimes spinning within the pit at Mid Ohio. I know it has been only four days, but again no response at all. Dont get me wrong, I luv R3E and you guys are doing a pretty impressive job. Also bugs I've reported in the past, like "pit blocking" DTM (92) cars at Zolder or penaltys for trying to pit at the Hungaroring got all fixed pretty fast. But right now I'm feeling a lill bit ignored.
/ignore Joking, your feedback and reports are very welcome and appreciated. As you mentioned already, some members aren't in the office atm, so official feedback is somewhat limited. But I can assure you that all your findings are being taken note of and they will get fixed once the office is back at full steam. About the GTRX specs: The specs shown in the store are the specs currently used in the class. Those were deliberately altered back when the class was created to offer a comparable performance among all the cars in the class. It would have been impossible to have a competitive class while using the real specs, so they BOP'ed the crap out of the cars. But afaik the class is up for changing, probably will get split and the cars physics and specs will get updated alongside this re-grouping, so there's little use in correcting those info pages now when they will have to be changed again in the near future.
Hmm? So why is the RUF a lill bit underpowered, if this is the BOPed data? I would have expected some less weight around his hips. BTW, I never drove the RUF, I prefer the CCGT. I was just wondering myself about the hp of the RUF compared to his weight.
Because of the special characteristics of its flat-6 Boxer with its insane amount of torque. It produces around 890 Nm whereas f.e. the Zonda R "only" produces 710 Nm.
Come on, really? GTRX is a fantasy class with cars losely based on real cars, BoPed to match performance. So what's the point?
The point is, someone who is a lill bit interested, just scrolls through the information and will notice, they all have the same weight. And if you dig in a lill deeper, you'll find out, that isnt the case irl. So imho its legit to ask. Plus there is no GTRX-Pack, so your decision which car to buy can be affected by the given information.
