Alright. My challenge is this; tune the F094/s to drift. It's that simple. When you have the setup, post it here so I can try it out. Enjoy!
 
or is it? I just want to see who can do it and who's just too scared to mess up the delicate balance that is the setup of the F1...

What? Was it necessary to say "yup"? Easy there sparky. You'll get your avatar some day.

Jpec is not even a drifter.

I didn't know this was all so much "hard work".
 
I wanted to see if anyone was willing to touch the settings on their F1, that's all. Is that really such a crime?
 
i would do that, because i really dont car much about regular racing so i would mess with an F1, but i dont have one. :(=. would be great to drift tho. i can drift a GT-ONE. that's almost like an F1? wanna see some drifts?

:EDIT: i'll try to record them by this weekend. IF anyone wants to see. and it's on sims.:D
 
If you think you're video is great, just send it, we wont know until we watch it. Make sure you are willing to give all you got before showing it, so it will be good. If you're going to show some short drift that crashes then wait till you got it good. I would like to watch it.
 
wow you really took it the wrong way. aka. "uhm wtf are you reading" let me say it again in a "simpler" way.

i dont have an F1 if i did i would try to drift.
i have a GT-ONE and i can drift with it and it is kinda like an F1 and now. if you wanna see it PM me this weekend or so. got it.
 
Well, I did that once, but the main problem is the high grip of the car. So you´ll have to "burn" the rear tyres untill they're red, keeping you front ones green.

The setting was this:
Spings: lowest
Camber: 0/0
Toe:2/-2
Stabs:1/1

LSD: All 5
Minimum downforce.

About bound/rebound, I tested the car with 7 all, but I don't know if any changes would improve the "drift". So you've got to work a little in this area. ;)

Well messing with the F1 settings in and of itself is not such a big deal Jpec. I have my F1's set up to my liking. What's the big deal?

Hmm. There's no big deal with messing with the settings. I mean, GT3 does allow you to save your settings...

Anyway, I've not tried it, but I would imagine that Sheron's settings above could do with some re-evaluation.

To drift an F1 car, you want to take the grip away from the rear, which isn't that easy given the size of the rear wing.

Therefore, you would want to have the front wing setting quite high, and the rear wing setting lowered. This would move the centre of aerodynamic pressure forward, which should make the drift easier.

I thought boombexus was the only Super Moderator who drifted.:rolleyes:

I tried this long ago, and now I have the Poly001 in race setting.

And you're right in rising the front downforce. But this will make rise also the tyre wear in the front, and when the tyre gets orange, understeer will appear.

And you can modify the settings up to your style.
 
Have you noticed the rear wing??
The car has a huge grip. So tyre wear is the only way to loose grip from the rear tyres.

I drift every so often, just for my own amusement. I'm nowhere near as serious as you guys!

I do know a bit about aerodynamics though, hence the 'contribution'
 
Hmm. I can drift the Polyphony 001 F1 Car (nearly exactly the same car as the F094/S) quite happily on the stock settings. I don't often choose to, but it's not difficult. Apricot Hill is a pretty easy track to get the F1s going nuts on.
 
i dont see what the big deal is with F1's.....just save the settings before you tamper with them....duh.
 
it doesnt really matter even if you mess with your settings. you can only do so much to them anyways. IF i had an F1 i would try to drift in it
 
wtf.....that gt1 vid is just some mvc2 music.
