VERY unforgiving, the first three corners at Oulton Park are a killer, the track is narrow and you pick up some right speed. Flowing corners = me on the grass 50% of the time.

How did you know it was a wheel nut? Does your pit guy tell you or something ? Not had it happen to me yet
The engineer says it. Said it 3 times with a few seconds between each time. My first pit stop as well...
Grabbed this from Tesco this afternoon, and have been messing about with it for a couple of hours. Its okay so far, but not great... The graphics are fine, if somewhat sterile and that bloody PS4 ghosting!!! 
I hope they add a toggle, as its doing my head in... It makes decent frame rates feel like 24fps and in the rain my cars have three wipers each side, such is the level of ghosting 
I've seen a fair number of graphical glitches too.
Handling can be very twitchy and glitchy (Sometimes things seem to happen that I did not evoke) it also seems a bit disconnected and lacking feel, but I'm using the DS4 which I guess is less than ideal for a game such as this. I'm going to get a wheel for this and DC.
AI seems pretty dumb on the whole, and is also afflicted with some odd glitches, which is disappointing.
I will keep going as I don't want to feel I've unwisely spent £44 - and hope patches clean it up... so far 6.5/10.

There is a great game in this but its buggy as heck...loving this one...
What is good is very good. But sadly there is a lot still needing work, the career ui is IMO very messy. I cannot believe I cannot change settings whilst racing, you have to quit back to the menus to make even simple changes. And the pits are just full on broken all over really... Spa being my personal favourite where ai control drives you into the pit wall..
Oh how is everyone taking screenshots as the photo mode only (comically) works whilst racing and not during replays so you all using the share button?

Formula c with mode 3 for me is just bliss. That is some excellent and fun open wheel racing... Catalunya and formula c is a perfect match
This is what makes project cars good, and means despite its obvious bugs and missing features you sorta put up with it.
SMS still need to patch the game mind... The good doesn't mean its acceptable to now leave it like this..
And SMS have a season pass planned. Mind you. Drive club was pretty messy at the start. And that sold a season pass and got away with it.

I'm using the ps4's share button to take a picture when in replays. How do you put pictures in a post on the forum?
Decided to drive a different car. After spending pretty much 100% of my time in the RUF GT3.
Jumped into the Ginetta GT3. I don't know if it has something to do with the setup but it feel more raw than the ruf and much more willing to fling its tail out.

Just had a quick spin myself in the ginetta gt3 around Dubai auto drone , very different to drive then the bmw 3 series gt3. this is where project cars is good, all cars feel different..

AI needs more work.
They are overly aggressive in practice sessions, dangerously slow on some corners, can clip through you and drive just as fast on the grass if you squeeze them for room.

Just use less throttle. Brake coming into the corner, apply a bit of throttle through corner (barely more than idle) then as you start applying more as you straighten up.
Found the game pretty good so far. The go karts are a nice fun addition and the level of detail is great, even down to the two stroke exhaust expansion chamber lol
The handling can be cruel but it's very predictable. If you spin out you know why.

Couple of questions...
1) Pit Stops in time trial mode or the online community events e.g. the Formula A around Barcelona. I can pit but nothing happens? e.g. if I take damage and am told to pit by my engineer I just cruise through the pitlane without actually pitting, so any damage doesn't get repaired. Is this normal? I do exactly the same thing in a race and I pit successfully. Also do I always have to use the menu to select a PIT preset?
2) Do the 4 tyre icons on the HUD just display temperature, or do they show wear as well?
3) On PS4 can the pit-chat be directed from the DS4 speaker to your main speakers? If I'm using my headphones I completely miss the instructions, plus I assume this can't really be of use to wheel users?

Done a race weekend at brands Hatch and on the menu/settings screen it displays track record with user times underneath although for some reason my best time was not showing. Is it only time trials that record my best times for tracks?
Cheers
