I am struggling with the hairpin too. I have a base setup which makes the car easier to drive at speed. You can play around with it to make it fit your style.

For the spring rate i have Newton/mm , what is yours ? I have to convert
 
Here are my cars I have been given so far. I really want a better N300 car. This one is very slippery and not as quick as some of the others I feel.

Best Gr. 3 car I have so far is the Megane R.S. 01 GT3.
Not much choice in the Gr. 4 section but I love this car and it seems to be the best one according to the lap times.

Thank you for sharing. Can't wait to try this today!

I have only raced on N300 today. I went down to 12SR from 13.. It is a great track but very easy to slide off, particularly in a Lotus! I am surprised I only lost 1 SR point. About to watch the F1 now so will try out some more races later if they are still active.

I.m up to 20SR. And just suffered my first disconnect from the server.

Currently doing the N300 thing.

Edit: now doing the gt3 thing. Servers are having a bad day today as well it seems.

Managed to play 2 Gr4 races around Brands this afternoon using the Scirocco. To my surprise I managed to finish 1st in both of them

I have now got the GTR and the Megane but even though they both feel nicer to drive Im quicker in the Scirocco.

I finally started started using my wheel and pedals that I bought over a year ago for this game and to my dismay atm I can't match my fastest time with the controller!

I don't want to admit it but I think I prefer the controller...

It can take a little time to adapt to the changes but you will become faster with a wheel eventually. Use this game as practice in readiness for the non-beta version.

What is the ride height and spring rate?

@shaunm80 The new Dragontrail Trail Cicuit is much more fun with the Goup 4 Cars und with your setting for the GT-R it's a pleasure to drive :)

I know. We were very close in terms of time as well. I much prefer this group of cars around Dragon Tail. Tomorrow should be fun indeed!

Thanks for testing out my settings too. They work very well on high speed sections for keeping everything in check.

Group4 cars around Dragon Trail you say?

That sure sounds like a blast..

Have you had any chance trying it out? I'm curious about the handling in that little Italian midship.

Yes , i have tried it at Dragon trail practice and the Alfa was a little faster than the GT-R, you only need to be careful when accelerate, over all a nice little lightweight thing, half a ton less than the GT-R :)
