Sport Tyres need higher Lateral Grip to be useable

Text on the suggestion is as follows;

>At the moment the online meta is Rally Tyres because they give a similar amount of Lateral Grip as Semi-Slicks but with a drop in acceleration and braking performance.

>At only ~3PI more expensive than Sport tyres, they obliterate them on roads as the extra braking performance and 3PI does not outweigh (at all) the lateral grip of the rally tyres.

>I don’t think nerfing Rally Tyres is the solution, but I do think that an increase in the lateral grip of Sport Tyres would drastically raise their viability, increase variability and variety and it wouldn’t effect the current leaderboards as they currently stand (as far as I am aware).

I would appreciate your votes on the Forza Feedback link to help us gain increased viability and variance in the online meta, if you agree of course.

If you have an alternative suggestion or opinion please put it in the comments below and we can discuss them, a unified suggestion will do better than dozens of similar ones.

Do the challenges in style - beat Supercars in your daily driver.

Want to pick the kids up from school AND set blisteringly fast hot laps?

Look no further. Rotgoblins has you covered with an 08 Civic saloon tune;

351 689 298

S1 class, AWD swap, stock engine. Short gears and a low top speed for pure time attack and for beating the rush hour traffic on your way back from the office.

Hypergastromyzon Abditus (i think)

Believe this is H. Abditus not Humilis as previously thought.

Please excuse the filthy tank, I intentionally encouraged an algal bloom expecting gastromyzon loaches and, well, I got it!

Had these fish for a few months now, doing extremely well. Online information seems to state that they are omnivores but we have never seen them graze on algae, nor grazing on spinach or repashy soilent green.

What they do eat is bloodworm and whiteworm in spades, the millisecond it is added to the tank all of them immediately dart out and go on the hunt, they pounce on the worms and one seems to even do a 'death shake'. They go around pushing their noses into the gravel trying to flush out more worms. I personally think they may be predatory moreso than omnivorous.

Either way, really interesting fish. I'd love to breed them but I can't even accurately sex them at the moment!!

Time Attack circuits are bugged and leaderboards finally make sense..

Just dropped my car down from A class to B class to give it a whirl and I cross the line at Legends circuit and it says "7th place, 1:27:XXX" and I'm like uwotm8? Because I did a 1:36:XXX or something..

It counted my distinctly okay A class lap time as my B class run.

So suddenly there being people at the top of the leaderboards fast enough to be in the class above makes sense.

The leaderboards are bugged.

Probing interest - Sharing my fake sponsors for liveries

Just wondering if its worth me going through the effort of uploading these for sharing;

STUPORcharger - Stupidly quick

Never Coming In Clutch - they'll always let you down

DunWERK brakes - brakes just slow you down, make sure yours DunWerk

Scamshafts - throw a rod in your motor

REALbrand - absolutely not a scam, buy our official merch NOW!

BottomOut Shocks - truly the lowest you can go

Totally Real SPONSOR - sorry we've never heard of laundering your money?

NVS not very sorry - I'm not, you're not, why not?

ZERO Boost - all talk and no torque

Failure Point calipers - they aren't there when you most need them

we don't have INSURANCE - for those minor scrapes and bumps.

Skidmarks Tyres - Nothing sticks quite like Skidmarks, check if you have them!

=====================

I'm also open to other stupid ideas.

G. Scitulus and H. Humilis

Finally managed to bring these home, I originally thought the Gastromyzon were G. Ctenocephalus but these display 3 spots to the dorsal base, plus the yellow dorsal and red caudal edges of a G. Scitulus colour form.

Note the interesting 'spiny' protrusions near the gills. Not seen those discussed about G. Scitulus in my internet travels.

Also Hypergastromyzon Humilis, very active fish. Seems to like to burrow in the gravel but that may be down to them getting used to the new aquarium.

Identified by 7 cream bars along the back.

Going to check out another local store who I know uses the same supplier in the coming days, see if they have more interesting individuals.

Just looking for some help with some loaches, unfortunately I can't get clearer photos until Friday. (hopefully they make it to Friday)

So far I believe there may be;

Gastromyzon Ctenocephalus
Hypergastromyzon Humilis

But there's 2 in there I don't have anything definitive for at the moment.

I think they are a juvenile male, around 4cm ish. Very gentle fish.

Been a fair few years since I last kept dwarf cichlids. I'm not particularly worried about the cherry shrimp, it's a 160l tank with thick plants and a hundred hidey holes, and none of the shrimp have seemed particularly worried either.

▲ 15 r/isopods

A completely unexpected visitor turned up in our Panda King enclosure today, seems to be Armadillidium Nasatum (has a little peaked cap between the eyes).

They are native to my country but should be hundreds of miles from here! We checked our soil tubs, nothing, checked all the outside pod spots, loads of Vulgare, Depressum, P. Scaber etc, but no A. Nasatum.

Where the flip did this little guy come from and what do we do with them now?!?

Thankfully they are free from mites.

I initially thought I just had O. Macrospilus, stating to question that. Can anyone ID? Please and thanks.
