So I tried some online drag racing today (S class RWD) and since I didn't have any RWD S class cars I just picked one of the S-class cars in the game to use (I think it was a McLaren F1) and I was able to run something like an 11.0 if I recall correctly. I only lost to a couple guys that had custom cars--one guy ran an 8 with some kind of Datsun. Fast forward a couple hours and I've tried to make a drag car out of a 93 Cobra R... But I can't manage to get better than a 12.5 due to the lack of traction. The car is maxed out for the S level at a 700 PI (I think it has 750-something hp). If I go and "benchmark" the car, it says it should do 0-100 in like 6 seconds, but I'll be damned if I can come ANYWHERE close to that! :lol:
Any advice on trying to setup a car for drag racing in this game? I'm not THAT bad at launching a car in this game, so I assume I need some definite help in my setup. I have the widest tires with slicks on the back (or whatever the best tires are called in the game) and can't get piss for traction. FYI, I play with the driver aids off and manual transmission.
Also, please let's not turn this into a "drag racing sucks in Forza 3" thread.
