Running the Formula Gt Championships in A-Spec for only the second time, as just managed silver overall the first attempt. Did way better at Fuji (my least favourite track) and got 2nd, then 1st fairly easily at Indy Road Course, and Third (I think) at Monaco (pretty hard work) but just had THE most frustrating race at the Nurburgring GP track.

I know the AI mess up near the end and was 2nd for some time but the AI are so fast on this track, and the curbs are really high, put a wheel wrong and you are in big trouble, not to mention annoying rubberbanding in that even if you drive out of your skin you won't build up any kind of lead. So anyway I ended up 11th, which after 20 intense laps, is painful.

So settings please? Just for this course...been running tranny with max speed around 250mph or so which i think was a disadvantage for Monaco (previously ran default and found it easier) but Nurburgring seems a quick track. Other settings re. suspension, downforce etc. most welcome!

I won all of them easily.Only one word practice and practice.

At monaco increase the downforce all the way up,brake balance f-7 r-10,some of the corners in monaco and nurburgring are off camber so tweak the camber and tweak the springs for the notorious nurburgring kerbs,goodluck.
 
I won Fuji by 10s, Indy by 30s, Monaco by 20s, Nurburgring by 40s, and Monza by 25s. I then proceeded to skip Suzuka because it was raining.

In all of these wins, I spun out at least 3 times.

It takes some practice to get used to how the FGT car rides. Also, don't forget to put Racing Softs on it.
