Convict - Analysis

Convict analysis:
So after a while of getting seemingly inconsistent laps with SLR in Convict, I decided to test 4 cars on Convict. Namely One-77, Ferrari, Lexus and of course SLR. The plan is to do 5000 laps with each and posting updates after 500 laps with each. So here are first 2000 total laps.

Race 1 – RS: 26.5891
100 lap convict with One-77: 1:51:22.889 – Best lap: 01:00.002 – Average lap: 01:06.83

Race 11 – RS: ????
100 lap convict with Lexus: 1:51:45.178 – Best lap: 00:59.905 – Average lap: 1:07.05
Race 12 – RS: 26.6111
100 lap convict with SLR: 1:51:24.563 – Best lap: 00:59.811 (New personal best) – Average lap: 1:06.85
Race 13 – RS: 26.6141
100 lap convict with One-77: 1:51:51.519 – Best lap: 00:59.876 – Average lap: 1:07.12
Race 14 – RS: 26.6171
100 lap convict with Ferrari: 1:51:54.716 – Best lap: 01:00.405 – Average lap: 1:07.15
Race 15 – RS: 26.6189
100 lap convict with Lexus: 1:51:37.291 – Best lap: 01:00.026 – Average lap: 1:06.97
Race 16 – RS: 26.6218
100 lap convict with SLR: 1:51:18.563 – Best lap: 00:59.940 – Average lap: 1:06.79
Race 17 – RS: ???
100 lap convict with One-77: 1:50:58.987 – Best lap: 00:59.942 – Average lap: 1:06.59
Race 18 – RS: 26.6250
100 lap convict with Ferrari: 1:51:47.799 – Best lap: 01:00.203 – Average lap: 1:07.08
Race 19 – RS: ????
100 lap convict with Lexus: 1:51:12.090 – Best lap: 00:59.999 – Average lap: 1:06.72
Race 20 – RS: ????
100 lap convict with SLR: 1:50:47.452 – Best lap: 00:59.926 – Average lap: 1:06.47

Average lap for each car after 500 laps:
SLR:01:06.67
Lexus: 01:06.82
One-77:01:06.84
Ferrari: 01:07.24

So after 500 laps, SLR indeed seems to be the best car for Convict, as kind of expected. Ferrari is doing worse than I remembered, but One-77 seems to be doing really fine, being the only car besides the SLR, with which I did 100 laps under 1 h 51 min, yet Lexus, despite not getting a great single race result is doing better than One-77 with average lap time.
I didn’t manage to check RS on every race, as I was running a few of them on mobile in a hurry. :)

Tl;Dr: I am wasting time racing Convict with different cars, yet realising SLR is indeed the best.

More confirmation the Ferrari is practically useless :)

Nice of you to spend the time and share the results :D

That's true. I already did one more race with it, but might as well try to use Lambo instead.
Hmm. Won't be going nicely by RS, but well, ... Can't have everything when you're as impulsive and silly as I. xD

Same thing with Nissan

My Nissan is sadly not upgraded. Only just working on my third NSX.

I heard that cars gets "track experience" from doing laps in the same track. Did you take on account how many races you were doing with the SRL before doing this experiment?

Was your SLR turbo 2 or 3?

Turbo 3.

Average lap for each car after 1000 laps:
SLR:01:06.68
One-77: 01:06.77
Lexus:01:06.84
Lambo (400 laps): 01:06.96
Ferrari(600 laps): 01:07.22

So after 1000 laps SLR is still proving to be the best!
I finally managed to get under 1:51:00 with Lexus too, yet average dropped under that of One-77.
Ferrari was discontinued after another race. And Lamborghini isn’t doing that bad. With lower sample number, it scored better than Ferrari but worse than all the rest. In the next update, I’ll incorporate 6 more races with Lambo, so it’ll take a while longer, but I want to have same sample as other three remaining cars. It won’t be that good a sample, considering slightly higher RS, but I don’t think it’ll cause much of a difference with only slight increases in RS.
In case it proves to be subpar to others even after higher sample number, I’ll remove it from the further races.

Ferrari (600 laps):01:07.22



So after 1500 laps SLR seems to be the best!



Albeit significantly better than Ferrari, Lambo is still doing pretty bad, so it’ll be discontinued. With a rather bad race on SLR side, the average lap distance between the remaining three cars is now rather low.

100 lap convict with One-77: 1:51:23.586 – Best lap: 00:59.888– Average lap: 01:06.84
Race 81 – RS: ???
100 lap convict with Lexus: 1:51:17.732– Best lap: 01:00.015 – Average lap: 01:06.78
Race 82 – RS: 28.2874
100 lap convict with SLR: 1:51:24.371 – Best lap: 00:59.951 – Average lap: 01:06.84

Lexus: 01:06.82
Lambo (1500 laps): 01:07.03
Ferrari (600 laps): 01:07.22



So after 2000 laps SLR still seems to be the best! I’m honestly not sure if it’s worth exploring this further. I think I’ll go for2500 laps and then stop. As it is, if you don’t have Bugatti, SLRis indeed the best. Though if you don’t have a specialized car, One-77 is performing quite decently.
