Default Kool Tools

If you donate the $24 for kool tools how do they know it was you?

Does anyone have an account that has kool tools but no longer play? willing to send it to me? haha

This game is addictive...

Once you're in, you're in.
Probably have to be sacked to get out.

AGRESSIVE is the best driving style, risky, but 50% of the time you crash out, and the other 50% of the time, everyone around you crashes out No, thats not what I use

I stick to Thinker for driver characteristics. With thinker you get the most benefit out of practice and warmup= Increased Data/Feedback= Better setups for race.

Driving style- High Speed/Pace (90's) Bugger all agression. High use of tyres for V8's. Leave the rest alone.

Works for me!

Cheers

Darran

Dry tyres are fine +90 however keep your Wet's -40. If you have Wet's the same as your Dry's, you'll destroy them in 10 laps - do that in a normal race and you're stuffed, do it in an enduro and you're really stuffed!

It's been down for most of the day, you could still get to the forum before, but now that's down as well. Looks like everyone is in the same boat. Everyone was going nuts about not having their setups done.
