Zolder competition question

[Alida]

Hi people,

I see that there are drivers achieving laptimes of 1: 32 at Zolder.
does this has to do that these drivers are using a brilliant car setup? or is this achievable with the default car setup?
im pushing really hard and driving my best but the limit im getting is about 1:38 1 :37

thank you

@Edu Martinez: I can get faster, but not because of FFB. Again, thanks for your suggestion.
Now I'm in 1:34.9.
I can Change whatever FFB Setting I want: nothing helps. I can not feel understeer, no way. I tried very much. This great forum is full of suggestions.
For driving fast: I know that mostly understeering is my problem. I tried on Zolder the following:
- accelerate at apex, but turn the steering wheel almost in middle position.
Doing so, I can take turns faster.
Hard to explain how far to turn the wheel back to the almost middle position because I DO NOT feel the understeering, so I don't know when the car has enough grip.
Should I open a new thread about FFB on my DFP?
English is not my mother language, so please forgive me, if it is hard to understand what I want to write

I did a 1:35.0 with the stock setup. This is for now a gap of 2.3 seconds to the top.
...
My real problem is that I don't feel FFB proper on my DFP. I have no idea when the car understeers or oversteers....

I remember that wheel, I was 1 second faster with F1 car when used that wheel, it's smaller than my current G27 so maybe it's also faster??? I still have DFGT but that's not as good as DFP was, lucky you

DFP is that small, so G27 suits better for Nascar? Don't know what's wheel behind DFP but it's a little bit bigger than G27, but DFP is smallest wheel ever and driving with it is different.

@Roman Marschall With the T500RS I feel very well understeer, I guess you have 100% (understeer) in the options, so when you lose the front tyres the FFB feels free.
Maybe it´s about your Wheel

@lionofjudah72 I did this one just to check for myself, loaded up Bathurst just 10 mins ago and ran 2 laps on the default set, only changes were dropped preload to 2 and removed rear ARB, I haven't run Bathurst since I did that 2:01 so been a few weeks, I hit over 280 both laps on the back straight, it may be worth checking your gear out just to be sure there isn't an issue because I didn't even push the car hard in the vid

@Kieth. Hey Champ. I will test it tonight. I will do a run in the Vette with a stock setup. Just like you. I think your are correct in saying maybe there is an issue. My gears where at default. Lets see what happens. I will post my lap as well.
