Performance Tuner King of Drift 2016 [Entries closed] Comment section open

You mean round 4 :wink: Round 3 happens on same cars as first two

whoops, misread, but yes i’m bringing an update

I’ve done as much as I can, but tonight was FD, a drift team from Estonia came to visit to the garage, so we watched it and then ran drift trains till 4 A.M. Right now im pretty much dead, so I need some sleep, I will post the semi finals and finals tomorrow, along with instructions on how to dial in your setup

I’m honestly surprised that despite the low power, the Knight’s actually holding its own on the track. Was not expecting Top 4 in this one, especially given that the Knight’s only advantage seems to be that it’s apparently a bit tame.

I did think my car was pretty good on drivability.

Until now when it has eaten shit in two competitions out of three.

Wow, Im in the semi finals somehow. :grinning:

i thought i was low running on under 25, what’s yours like?

Sometimes all it takes is a good run of RNG… or a bad one for the competition. :wink: Congrats on Irwindale

The best in the grid, actually. You do know that you can’t avoid the crashes completely in my challenges. Well you can, but it will cost you competitiveness.

Yeah, those guys from Sibula team are crazy and cool. I’m still sore from all the wheel work. Need to do my allignment really soon.

It’s time to do just that

Pretty good results from you

You really don’t want to know :smiley: We have daily drivers in the forums that are less controllable than his drift beast :smiley:

#In any case, the third round has ended, meaning we’re going on a bit of a break and it’s time to retune your cars. More info will be posted on that in the event thread. Stay tuned.

I guess I’ll make sacrifices to the RNG gods to let the car show its true nature.

I wasn’t expecting that! But, I did kinda learn from the trials that the Knight didn’t respond so well to lots of power, and that a refined approach would be needed.

Please don’t :wink: Your scores are enough already :smiley:

And spinning was not what i intended… hrm… Ah, well, i guess i have to work on driveability and show… and lower the speed a tad.

And great work, @squidhead, i really like your style of comments

A bit of info. I have been summoned to work a week early, so I don’t have a stable internet connection or a computer than runs automation properly. I’d say you have untill the end of the month to send in your revisions.
That would be all, sorry for the upcoming delay.

Oh, so this is what you were talking about when you said:

Yep. As of now we still don’t have the full 16 car grid to run the elimination properly

A full sixteen would make things much better to score. Put it in!

(I personally am not counting the first two rounds anyway… Not after I forgot the aero rules in my haste and submitted an undriveable car).

I just realised I also didn’t remember about the aero…not that it helped since he drivability was still at 0 anyway :sweat_smile:

Don’t forget to tune your cars. (I almost did)

Last chance to get your re-visions in before we lock down for the next 4 rounds.
You now have 20 hours to finish with the revisions or you will be left in the same car for the next 4 rounds.

And the atmosphere in European drift is a bit more…

Ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to Riga.

I tried tuning for hours (seriously) but had no way of telling if it was better or worse. So I’ll just have to stick with what I submitted. Can someone wake me when this season is over?
Going on the assumption there may be another opportunity to tune, would someone please point out which values are the worst in this pic?
