AC GT3 - Fuel Saving needed for 1 stop + Nürburgring split2 race highlights video

I worked around the temps adjusting tyre pressure really easily. At Nürburgring I had around the same lap times as with the R8, both with minimal setup.

But it feels there is just something off the fuel consumption on the Glickenhaus; again, it was successful on endurance and that would mean it was either more fuel efficient, which obviously is not the case, or absurdly faster than the competition to compensate for a thirstier engine. Which is also not the case.

As for the fuel cell/tank size, it is the same size of the Z4, holding 110L. The SCG will run for around 28min without fuel saving, while the Z4 will easily do 40+ min.

So if you want to have a somewhat competitive race just pick one of: z4, 650, 911, r8 or 488.

Fuel rate at 200% means that any differences will be two times more impacting than they were before. I wonder if SRS could balance that better for the 003 to make it a viable option, maybe through lowering the consumption rate and/or adding ballast to the other cars.

Edit: After reading a bit more, it all makes sense as this car is GT3 compliant but is not an actual GT3 car. So it would inevitably fall short in one way, or many in it's case. Found these survey results to be useful as an overview of the category in AC: https://www.reddit.com/r/acrl/comments/6...y_results/
