Overheating cured ?

Recommended Posts

Quick race / 25% / all assists on except brake off

fuel mix standard and rich gives me overheating, so...........

I tried running lean at all times. This gave me no overheating and performance just as good (probably because other mixes caused overheating)

ie; Malaysia I was running 7th and after 2 laps dropped quickly to 15th due to being 'mugged' on straights.

changed to lean and moved back up the field !

This issue has made me stop playing for the past few weeks, seem to get 'mugged' so often on straights as my engine is constantly red, it's just not enjoyable any more. Please fix!

@jinCHEZ we've reduced overheating which leads to a performance decrease.

What's the difference? It's nice having to manage something while pushing... It splits the boys from the men xD haha

When a lot of people are saying they can't do a lap on standard revs without their engine going red I think that's more important than having something to manage while pushing hard. How about you give it a try and then decide if it's good or not and we'll go from there.

Can OP post the platform, circuit, car chosen, assists and see if we can replicate it?

I've never had overheating issues on PS4, LH44, any circuit, all assists off except racing line, Legend AI

At some parts of a circuit (the slower parts) your engine can get hot in standard yes, but that's the managing part... You already changed the engine overheating...

First it was after a while in rich you got red, no matter what track or layout (slow or fast corners)...

now it is that certain parts of the track (where the air intake is less which is actually nicely made) you get red when not in lean.

Now you want to change it again while in both cases there was nothing wrong?
