2. Changelog (from VRC data values):-
- Tyre wear increased slightly.
- Much less harsh over kerbs.
- Force Feedback a bit less “ON/OFF”.
- Handling more solid in general, far less slidey.
- Repair times sped up for league purposes.
- Fuel consumption improved – but even then, some races will be a lap or two short of modern distances as there was no refuelling in 1988 and tank size was limited.
- Underside colliders raised to allow better steering on grass and in gravel.
