Need help with Qual to Race setup

[Cristina]

Hi,

I am trying to learn (again) how to setup F1 cars after long time of not playing these games. I have a Qualifying setup for Bahrain and I want to do a non stop race in 28 lap race (50% dist). I know its rfactor and not GP4 but i figured that the setup principle is the same?

I know that each setup is individual but what do I need to change from Qual setup to do my non stop race as a rough guide?
I use full TC and ABS.
Its MMG 2007 mod if that helps.

here is my Qualifying setup:

//CGRightSetting=10//50.0:50.0
CGRearSetting=14//43.2:56.8 (weight distribution)

//FrontTireCompoundSetting=1//Hard
//RearTireCompoundSetting=1//Hard

Much easier to simply upload your setup to forum All those numbers from a text editor doesnt help

Have you checked here?

I'm only familiar with the CTDP F1 mod, but basically I only change these things from qual to race (usually):

- Decrease boost and revlimit (seems you don't have this in your setup)
- Increase radiator size
- Increase brake duct setting
- Increase brake disk thickness
- Add fuel
- Harder tires

At least these are the important parameters to make sure the car lasts for a full 100% race.

If you just pick your qual setup and apply hard tires, that will do the trick.

I did a 30 lap race on Bahrain (mmg2007pe) and did the medium (softest I could attach) with 1 pitstop. All laptimes good and no issues with wear.

If you need I can upload my setup from that race. Me was the winning driver :skywalker:
