@reflecting god.
With a Sauber in career mode: 2nd in race. Thanks for your setup. Very good, the car is fast and stable. Wings put the right grip. I tried other setups in this thread; I prefer reflectin god's one.
Enjoy!

Very similar to mine. I just use even softer front springs to enforce more oversteer.

 

[Fahad Gaffoor]

i should try with softer spring and see wats the result like..

I had trouble cutting turn 1 sharp enough while maintaining a decent speed and had the same problem the following chicanes. I tried the other setups but my best results were with my own. I sort of frankenteined the more favorable aspects from setups i liked(balance and suspension) but the majority is from my own testing. This setup feels stable while braking yet still responsive around turns. I can easily get consistent 1:32's or 1:31's if i really push. Setup used with Red Bull Renault.

with a wing of 1/1 .. i doubt you will be able to take the first corner and the following chicanes with optimum speed...

 

[nitefox]

for the first corner i feather the brake a little early and i end up with more exit speed that i did with higher downforce or changed weight/brake bias(left me surprised too). and as for the chicane, it's obvious i won't get 'optimum' speed but it's a perfect compromise between speed and cornering and gave me the quickest first sector times

 

[Fahad Gaffoor]

maybe you go this thread and see one of the several videos posted there in the thread
http://www.racedepartment.com/f1-2010-game/44107-time-trial-week-6-silverstone-england-dry-5.html

the first corner should be flat out.. nothing less than 300kph...

 

[Gussinton64]

I just get too much understeer! I'm averaging 1:40's!

 

[bruceykins]

does any1 no a good set up for the online custom gp mode with the car set ups on equal becuase im doing a tournament on sunday need the best set up for that

 

[Fahad Gaffoor]

follow the one that i posted.. works great..

 

[bruceykins]

follow the one that i posted.. works great..

is that good for time trial or genral use in custom online gp mode, on sunday 50% race distance tounament race.i tried it on time trial its really bad so is it for custom gp then i havent tried it out yet becuase its 1 am right now and is they a way you could test to see which is better in custom gp mode other than time trial becuase it doesnt help atall thanks.

 

[Fahad Gaffoor]

i didnt get you.. wats really bad on time trial???

i have played with this setup on online race too.. and it worked fine for me.. why dont you create a gp session and try out the setting.. and give it a go yourself.. you would know then..

yh i tried you set up on custom gp and its slower than the dryiest quick set up in qualiy and in the race anyway thanks anyway

 

[Fahad Gaffoor]

really?? i had a go with the setup.. and i was way faster than any of the default setups.. i guess it suits my style..
sorry that couldn't help..

2:06 is my time with the HRT car that I'm using in second season of my career.

 

[Falkirion]

After coming off a great 3 race winning streak before Silverstone (one of my favorite tracks too, why is it my favorites are the ones that dont suit my style) I've got issues with some of the setups here. All of them dont give enough turn in for my liking. I need something that turns in well, but is stable on the exit. All of the setups I've tried aren't turning in hard enough for my liking and are understeering badly. What do I need to adjust to get more turn in?

I'm clocking in around the 1:40 mark for qaulifying btw, low fuel all these setups give great turn in. But fully loaded I can't get the car to do what I want it to.

 

[edzkar]

This is my first custom setup so im just going to post it on this site if people will check it out and see how good it really is when a good driver uses it so feel free to use it and let me know what you think

Hello fellow racers,

thanks to all who posted their setups, it´s really appreciated.
I´m on my first year in career mode with virgin and I had major problems with the track in practice and with the setups posted in this thread.
Not saying they are not good or anything, but they don´t seem to work with the virgin car.

So I figured I woud try to alter my setup for suiting my needs.
Mostly the car didn´t turn in well on corners and the gears seemed to be off to the speeds in the corners too.
In general I felt the car was to quick in the corners with too low on the revs so it was difficult for me to maintain a good speed to rev ratio to accelerate out of the corners.

So I started with general setup, the most right on the quick setup menu and reduced the gear ratios to lower speeds.
Now I feel the car kinda does what it should. I´m not blazingly fast on this track now, besides I had a hattrick on the 3 races before and took first place on 2nd difficulty level. I think there is still room for improvement with the car setup and me learning the track.
My times are mostly in the 1.37 to 1.36 area, anyways here is my virgin setup:
