OMG because you live in Europe your better than American ? 👍I live in Europe... I've likely been to more tracks & track days than you've had hot dinners.
But ok good talk.
Any ideas what would be the car on race C tomorrow on Fuji? (Kudosprime says group X one make, so I assume the new red bull maybe?..)
That's the best race I've seen in a while. If anyone had qualified higher than you guys he would have msged you and say push him off, he is slow and will be in the way.
Yes. Depending on layout you might need different settings for different tracks.Is it possible that I have to adjust the Brake balance from track to track on the same car?
Does the car number tell us who has the higher DR?It all depends on how the other racers are placed in Dr compared to you. If people with lower Dr than you came in before you, you get Dr down.

That's something else that needs pinning somewhere! Improving your position from where you start has no bearing on DR. It's all about where you finish compared to the Driver Ratings of those in your race. The below explains it brilliantly. These are not my words but those of @Famine
For every car you finish in front of you gain:
80 - ((Player DR - Rival DR))/500)DR
For every car you finish behind, you lose:
80 + ((Player DR - Rival DR))/500)DR
If you have, say, 20,000 DR and you finish one place ahead of a driver with, oooh, 50,000 DR, you gain 140 DR from them (and they lose 140 DR to you). You also gain that if you finish two places ahead, or three, or five, or 19. If you beat someone with 10,000 DR by one place, you gain 60 DR from them.
The best answer to this is "maybe, but it depends".Does the car number tell us who has the higher DR?

Not to beat a dead horse, but I am currently watching the British GP pre-race, and they just finished discussing how the drivers are going to manage their tires to avoid graining.
So, there you go, even F1, with their pit stops and all, you still have to manage the tires and drive so as not to burn up your resources.
Yes it's possible, but I would not say it's definitely necessary. With the introduction of Sardegna, I am finding it a great place to set your BB. I'm finding that on cars that I've had to adjust a lot, Sardegna seems to highlight a best setup.
That best setup SHOULD work everywhere, but it may not. Sometimes, the balance that gives you a best single lap pace may also be inconsistent, slowing you down over the length of the race.
Some people change it corner to corner. I just try to make the most consistent setting work on all tracks by getting used to it.
It’s not often that I do Race A, but I’ve done a few recently and this one was a lot of fun. First two laps are me catching up and looking for openings after I got caught sleeping at the start. Laps 3 and 4 turn into a nice 3-way fight for the lead. Been having a lot of fun in this new Camaro. Enjoy!
Holy crap! I looked terrible there.
Sincere apologies, Winn, but allow me to explain...
I've been seeing Bob on a daily basis for about a month. He gets bashed around pretty badly sometimes. Three races previous to that one, he said to me in the post-race chat, "I am forever behind you" The very next race he had leap-frogged my qualifying time, and I told him I would help him. Unfortunately, he lost it on his own. Next race was your "sleepy start", and I snuck it in there.
Trying to protect Bob and not pass him, as well as holding you off, all while maintaining pace, was actually quite difficult. I was blocking but was trying not to be dirty. Obviously, I couldn't cleanly hold you back anymore on Lap 4. And that was NOT a divebomb at the end, I promise.
Again, apologies... I really wanted to give Bob a win. Every race I've had with you has always been excellent and fair, so thanks for that. Come down to Daily A more often.
I'm not that fast but if you go slow in-fast out it helps to reduce understeer. Late apex too@RacingGrandpa, @Invisigoth, @Voodoovaj: I run a few Maggiore test laps with the Genesis and the 2nd and 4th corner is 1000% understeer for me with the Sardegna brake setup. Or I just using the wrong lines... I think it's time to watch some tutorial videos on youtube.
Wow! Never thought I'd see you posting here.Holy crap! I looked terrible there.

Trying to block Winnie is definitely a tall task. Looked like a pretty good race, though. 👍
No more races, but have been doing laps at brands. Best so far is a 1.30.728 in the 4c i got down to a .791 with the moostang, gonna try a few other cars just for kicks
