Tried that, but none of the ratios go down low enough to your figures

Suddenly its bad to be slower than me -_- I've beaten you before so.:p

Also found my engine was losing power, ended up running 538bhp for race 2 which would explain why I suddenly struggled

Possibly could be that, think was more just have the setup right to compete for podium had terrible under steer, if you had it like I did on a real track you'd be in trouble alright lol
 
Dont know Rome very well at all but in one of these jeeezz:indiff:

I had a lot of understeer issues. Go to Rome and car is perfect. Weird but just made best of what I could

Amazingly the car suited Rome really well.
Was miles better at Rome than the Nurb. No understeer, car suddenly felt balanced again. Its a good fun track, bit like Tokyo only shorter lap.:)
 
thanks strawman
 
Not really sure how I felt about that race tbh, was expecting to be slow so not to worried about that but I really didn't enjoy the car at all. Not sure what it is but it just seems crap! Not a fan of Nurb tho anyway as I just can't seem to get the line right.

Not sure of the set up of the races either, 2 at the same laps felt abit boring, no pits or no sprint/feature race set up.

Anyway roll on Rome :/

Car was a bit unbalanced at Nurb so think most people struggled a bit with understeer.
I can understand how two races the same seem boring. But I wanted to keep it simple for now, but I was thinking of adding a pitstop or something in the future.

As for car it is better at Rome, ive found the understeer has gone and its back to being balanced again

You also werent slow considering we have had more time in the car so you did a good job.👍

Yeah couple things being looked at
 
Around 3s of the pace is slow! Haha Nurb is just somewhere I struggle at, I find sector 1 pretty difficult and lost most of my time in that sector alone.

I'm free ever Wednesday so I won't be leaving, ill just practice more and try and watch the lines you guys run to see where I'm losing time. No biggie!

Well I saw when practicing you only went into 7th gear, unless you changed ratios before races you lost a bit of time in speed.

Only 3 seconds of isnt bad, plus if its a bad track then maybe at a good track you'll be right up at the top? 💡

Yes there is.👍

What car number, colour and team name please.
 
Once you get to learn it the car is very fun and very fast the gearing is what you really have to work , lots of shifting .

Havent looked at any replays since the start of the season but i wonder how everyone sets their gearboxes
