Thats how mine started, I don't know how much it would effect your lap time being that fine. When mine started hindering my pace the red bar was going up and down a bit so your probably ok.

I decided to strip mine when it randomly slammed the brakes on while some one was drafting me

It's only taken me a week and a day, but here are pics from last week's after-race

The start

I hadn't realised Sausage opted for a reverse-start

Off-roading Prius

Guess who's facing the wrong way again... on purpose

SKIDOOSH

The finish

Didn't realise I had gotten to the end so don't have a better picture of how close it was

The Caterhams are immense, one of the most fun cars in the game! Not the easiest thing to drive though so it wouldn't be very practical for us to use them in the Sunday races

Did you see what I was on about?

I took the casing off as per this video, I only stripped it up to 1:25 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ml9L7NB6jVk

Then I just gave everything a good clean, hoovered it then cleaned all the moving parts with WD40.

Was about 6 months ago I done it and its worked fine since

multiclass, which means you can use either im going to do some testing to see what PP rating is about the best.

ive just been doing some testing..

Corsa and Tigra modded identically but corsa having stage 1 turbo means they are 3PP apart and lap times were both 2'36 at the nurburgring GP/F circuit.

these times were with just the stuff put on and nothing else.

right, ive done some more testeing lol

corsa - PP400 @ nurb-ring gp = 2:30.2
tirgra PP400 @ nurb-ring gp = 2:29.9

cars are very close, the tigra is easier to drive, very lazy but doesnt handle as well as the corsa does, the tigra goes through tyres quicker than the corsa seems to do so even tho the tigra is a faster car on the track it might come down to tyres and whether of not you can keep them good.

to get the PP400 i modified everything on the cars max and then dropped their power in the lobby.

corsa = 162 @ 888kg
tigra = 159 @ 877kg

almost made to race together
