AC GT3 @ VIR - Sun 18 Aug 2019

[dhmotor]

It's actually pretty stable through those(if you get 'em somewhat right), only problem is Oak Tree and the really bad pitching through it. The Rear is rising from 33-36mm during braking to 70-73mm when lifting, and the only way to try n' sort it out is through the dampers(because stiffening the front wheel rate to control the pitch results in horrible understeer everywhere else), but the problem is that I already got them right, according to Damper Histograms and Velocities in Motec

I am in over my head. Fuel level, tire pressure and maybe some wing adjustment - this other stuff is Mandarin. If you flash your lights I'll give way. Still looking forward to it.

Lots of good stuff...

Something else to remember is that everyone else can run a nice big diffuser underneath the rear of the car - the Porsche can't, that's where the engine is!

[Kek700]

To complement you Han, on our many encounters, you have handle the 911 in an impressive way, very rarely making any mistakes, with what is, a difficult car.

@JoelK, how will the abuse of track limits be checked? Is it a feature in AC Server at all? Or just fair driving agreement? I have only experience with it in RF2.

We will only have track cut penalties in practice and qualifying(where it invalidates your lap), but the Gas Cut Penalty is disabled for the race, because it can cause a bunch of havoc throughout the field. So in the race we go by just trusting the guys to keep inside the white lines, and calling out the guys who don't and are gaining time from that.

Where is the track being abused? If I run wide or make an illegal move, it flags up for me.

Did anyone try to go right after the Snake directly to Roller Coaster? It looks that it could be faster!

My money is on SCG as the dark horse in this race, I think it will be well suited to this circuit.

I had to check the line up to see if anyone else was foolish enough to drive the SCG. I'll quote Craig as to why the SCG is a bad bet for this track:

..
Choosing the right car also comes into it, last night I drove the SCG, but that is clearly the wrong car choice for this track ..you needed a 130 litres to complete the race, the tank only holds 110 litres...so no matter what, you had to stop and add 20 litres (compared to other drivers only adding 1 litre) this car used a whopping 3.60 litres per lap ...this car choice for this track would be very unlikely to get you a top 5 position....why did I choose it, because I knew I would never be able to finish the race

On a track that is difficult to overtake, I don't want to even think about the consequences of going off on the first lap.

That explains why I struggle to get a top 10place then,

know sod all about which car is the fastest.

 

[Kek700]

PS, I will probably be stupid enough to do a swap
to SCG before Sunday too.
