It depends
At Spa the Valkyrie was a lot better than the ID.R
The Aston Martin pole lap was 1:25.8XX while the Volkswagen pole lap was 1:29.6XX or .5XX
That's due to the high speed corners and two long straights which favoured the Valkyrie. Other tracks with more demanding and tighter corners would see the ID.R dominate
@Neels RR3 okay so a long straight track favour's the Valkyrie while a track with many corners favour's the ID.R. Now lets say Nurbugring or Dubai GP circuit, which one is winning?
The ID.R would win on both Nurburgring and Dubai GP since it can take most corners flat out whereas the Valkyrie will have to slow down to take the turns.
There aren’t many high speed turns on both of those tracks which will be in the Valkyrie’s favor.
Nurburgring would definitely be the ID.R's stronghold, however Dubai GP would actually be a nice showdown for the two in a TTC.
More experienced players than have both FU would have a more accurate prediction for Dubai
@LamboCoin Cars what's your say on this? 🤔
I’m not Lambo, but I can tell you the IDR beats the Valkyrie at both
The fastest Valkyrie time at Nurburgring (that’s legit) is 1:10:634 in First Flight. The fastest I did in the IDR is 1:07:281. It could definitely be cleaned up a bit, but it goes to show the IDR dominates there. It brakes way less and is full throttle through the chicane at the end, though doing that is extremely difficult
At Dubai, it’s the same story. In the IDR, the fastest time is 1:08:508 in Shock and Awe. The fastest I could manage in the Valkyrie is in the 1:13:096. That could also be faster, but even then, it’d be impossible for the Valkyrie to close that gap. Same story as Nurburgring where way less braking is done on the IDR’s end
I also decided to test Bathurst since it meets the same criteria as the former two. The fastest time in the IDR is 1:15:148 in the ES. The fastest Valkyrie time I got was 1:16:038. Again, room for improvement on the Valkyrie’s end. 1:15:1xxs seems to be the fastest the IDR could do there, so with faster times in the Valkyrie, they would both be close enough to one another to be competitively viable (I would think anyway)
All of these were done with similar speeds through the corners leading up to the start/finish line at each track (that isn’t in a TT for both) to emulate a TT as much as possible for the most reasonable results
What do you think?
