[Michel Salvador]

:bananahuge:
wow great combo once again

 

[Eric. K]

Server is up...

 

[Ollie Chamberlain]

that chicane is tricky without getting done for cutting!!

 

[Abdul Al-Amry]

that chicane is tricky without getting done for cutting!!

Tell me about it LOL

I take the left turn from a wide angle and then hit the apex on the right turn seems to be doing the job. Great combo guys.

 

[Ariff Roose]

Brilliant setup will do here. I raised the packers a little, lowered the gear ratios a knob, clicked a few times on the anti-roll bars and its quite good.

But I need more turn in!!!! ...zzz

And I wish I could mess around with the torque band. Just like GT4! So then I could make the highest torque hang around from 6500 - 8300rpm!!

AND! The chicane forces me wide every time I meet it. Pisses me off so bad.:hammer:

EDIT:
Just did a 1:19.107.
Found a secret that could improve my timing by over a second.
Sector 1 and sector 2 about -1.500 ahead of my 1:19 and i took it to the chicane and it forced me wide. GOSH I HATE IT

 

[Rhys Gardiner]

Ariff - you tried increasing the steering lock? That usually helps with tighter turns.

 

[Rhys Gardiner]

Just went for a few laps on the server.

1:17.69. Faster than you, Abdul. :mad-tongue:

 

[Bob Miley]

The last corner does me almost every time!!!! 1:18.0xx best lap but 4 times been 0.6 up at second split and lost it all at last corner.

[Ollie Chamberlain]

don`t be tight, lol

 

[Michel Salvador]

ok fine ! 1.17.300



edit : this is new 1 more stable 1.16;xxx

hmmmm... never thought of that. Thanks! just downloaded Michel's setup and hot lap. Im going to see how he cracks the 1:18 barrier and meddle with his setup

Edit

I'm using my own setup instead. I increased the springs (both front and back) to about 200-250 and increased the steering locks to about 20.5 it seems i get more turn in and better thru the corner. But over here itss still 11:39AM so I'll wait until my body and reactions warm first
