I'll take the yellow Lotus then
Scratch that. Not because it was a wild guess, but because the yellow Lotus i took was the Evora S and i can say for certain that's a car i will NOT race this series. Suspension is way too soft for my taste.
Other than that, nice balancing of cars. I'm a bit inclined to the Exige, but then I also like the BMW, and I bet I would like the Alfa as well even though I didn't drive it tonight. And I enjoyed driving the Cayman, if only tyres would not cool down, it could also be an option.
Thanks for racing tonight guys! A bit of a rough start, but when there were less public boys I had some very nice races with a lot of you!
The Cayman will get looked into, just didn't really have much time today and this was my most improvised series preparation yet (never tell anyone ), since I didn't feel too well for a few days.
Other than that I'm glad there's not that much change necessary from what I gathered.. If you disagree, of course come with the constructive criticism
Rules will be up soon as well, with some changes to the way things were on previous series, of course all with the goal of providing the best low-prep and still close racing series.
During the week I'll run the server as well with a separate topic, all soon !

I felt Evora' suspensions perfect for bumpy tracks, while others cars felt too rigid; but like you said, we have all different tastes
Pleasant car to drive, I really liked it.
Exige is a very good car, except 2 flaws: I found was the 5th gear, way too long. Gap with car in front was even until I put 5th. And braking...
I remember an Exige with very close 5th & 6th (V6?)
As usual, 1M is a big beast, I forgot how hard the turbo can kick in exits. I found the body very rigid and reactions a bit too sharp to be confident with, Laguna Seca was scary AF; I had the Evora first race, it was day and night.
The Cayman was a nice surprise: not the best in anything (accel, brake, stability, agility) but good overall. Like all P., it's a bit hard to get the apex but it exits like a bullet!
4C didn't let me great memories. Nothing bad, but nothing good neither.
The last concern is braking without ABS: the Exige blocks front wheels with just a tickle on the pedal while I triple-checked the Cayman if ABS was really off
If you want to try driving without any help, this is the good one; just drive it like an AWD until you have to accel
I felt Evora, 4C and 1M were equal, sotfer susp on the Lotus made it more stable and efficient.
Good work for the car's choice and setups, hard to pick up only one!
