Actually just going back to the original part of this post, I can report some more interesting facts about this car.
I completed a 20 minute session without any other cars, here are a few more things i learned or confirmed. 1. Your fastest lap will likely be lap 1, the car is simply too heavy for it to go faster in lap 2 barring driver improvement. The trick is to get your tires ready and prepare for a qualifying lap on your first lap. 2. You can go maybe 2 hot laps before everything overheats and you have to cool it down. If you cool the car, you can do another hot lap. Once again, none of the laps will be as good, but it will run another lap just fine. I did 2 hotlaps, 1 cool down, 1 hotlap, 1 cool down and 1 more hotlap. I did it in a 2.25 miles track, it would suck if you are at VIR or something. It will work, just not ideal to squeeze the maximum from the car in terms of lap times. 3. When I say the car becomes slower toward the middle and end of the session, it doesn't mean the car is slow slow. It is just slower. It is still faster than most cars out there. 4. There is no way around it, you pretty much have to quick charge after every session. You can do 1 qualify lap every session if you want to avoid it, but there is no way around it. I was using 9% of the battery each lap at the track at full song. |

I will pass on the noise. If I go faster without the noise, why do I need it? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fXquOGsS9K0 I did struggle pretty bad in an autocross, not sure if noise helps either |
