the formula gt championship is fun, challanging, fustrating, and all around good racing. i dont race any particular setup, i just race what i got. The first race at Fuji, i recommend you just run fast consistant laptimes.(duh). But what will really help you is to put your top speed on your transmission a little higher, just to get faster down the frontstretch. At indy, i reccomend you run consistant and brake hard into turn 1 and take the rest easy. keep the transmission like at fuji. At monaco, i recommend tuning your transmission to where you have fast acceleration and get as many spots as you can at the star, and run consistant lap times. Nurburgring is pretty simple... DONT TOUCH THE GRASS!!!. I have not race the other two yet. heres how i did.
Fuji: I started out pretty good. i started runniong consistantly and pulling away by a little bit. Around lap 5, i decided to move my line into some of the corners around a little bit. this resulted in a 4 second lead by lap 8. Around lap 10, i was challenging myself to beat my laptimes. this resulted in getting loose under braking and spun around in the first corner. i fell back to third
but i was in the lead before i knew it. i won by 3 seconds.
Indy: pretty easy, just run consistant, nothing really interesting.
Monaco: I was in second by the double hairpins. I didnt really know the track so i fell back by 10 seconds.
. I was catching up by about lap 12 by 1.6 seconds a lap, but because i had to hold off other cars, i didnt get but up to 2 seconds of the lead before i got put into the outside wall. i finished second despite this though.
Nurburgring is tough: I made it into the lead by lap 3, but clipped the grass in a hairpin. i fell back to 9th. I was running consistant lap times and on lap 10 I was 6th. I was racing with 4th and 5th places when i saw smoke in front of me. IT WAS THE LEADER!!! HE was my main compitition for the title!. on lap 18 i was in second place, only a little behind the leader. I was right on his(bumper) on the last lap, but i couldnt get by him.I mad a charge going into the chicane and had a run on him coming out, but i clipped the f#%@ing Grass!!!!. I ended up finshing 3rd. i have not run any other races so far.
AGAIN: the most essential elment is consistancy.
