There was no need to tune this car.  It ran great as is!  With Aquiel's approval, I'll be driving a B475, instead of B500.

And I spent few hours painting up the car.  I see aquiel has new Lotus F1 livery on the car.  Mine is from 1993.

[...] I'll be driving a B475, instead of B500.

For a close racing there will be three different setups.
B475, B500, and A5xx.
I sent the B500 to test drive it.

SuperNDave and Derek, please try the B475 setup, like GRD.
Seeker and me start with the B500 setup, Sroth with the A5xx.

Setups can be switched if to fast or to slow.
The target for Hockenheim National is 1m41s +/-0.5s.
The target for Silverstone International is 1m36s +/-0.5s.

If you're not in this range with one setup please give feedback.
Expect this series to be racing bumper to bumper for all.  ;D

(Btw this B500 setup is also not bad in the Mugello Rivals this month.)

Test drove it again yesterday.  What a fun car to drive.  Does exactly what I want it to do.

That looks really good GRD. Not sure I can match it, my design is a more simple one again.

I've chosen the Ka for my F class, tuned it just needs some testing

Video of the last three corners of lap ten at Silverstone looking back from Seeker's car...

Looks like I got a little too close at one point!

The Lotus was competitive but I did not test my Ford Ka at all and it was sssslllllooooowwww.

I've changed the build, updated the tune and now it seems better!  Having a decent paint job doesn't hurt either.

OP updated with the event list.
I think this will be very close racing as the lap times of all were very close for Lotus and F-Class during the test runs.
Also very nice liveries here, I wish I could paint so good.
