Does anyone have a problem with the Minolta tires requiring to be changed every lap of the b spec Nurburgring 4H? I use racing soft and automatic pit activates in the middle of the lap and by the time I get to the pit stop, the tires are gone.
 
Nothing problematic there. It's because you are using racing soft tires on an incredibly light, incredibly powerful and MR-layout vehicle.
 
I'll switch to Racing Hard, but it won't help much since my drivers' strength only last one lap.:lol:
 
Can it be that you fully tuner the car? That can be a problem too, 1000+ HP.

I've found those bars to be pretty much useless...

Yeah don't worry too much about those bars. Just keep them at a steady pace and all should be gravy.
 
I would check pit stop settings, minimum driver strength may be set very high. It's not a cure-all as the tires are going to wear, but it's a likely culprit.
 
Or just don't use ridiculously overpowered 750 pp cars for a race requiring nothing more than a supergt..
 
I suggest that you keep the car stock. No need for 1000hp+ HP on such a great car that can win pretty much any race. Unless your Bob can't handle it. Mine can't even handle a Mazda Miata :/

Agreed, it's B-Spec race so will last 4 hours regardless :crazy:
 
All that being said, I must say that it takes some doing to set even the Minolta up in such a way that it chews up Racing Softs in 1 lap! They should at least last 2 laps with some room to spare.

30mm lower sounds extreme for such a bumpy track ...have you tried lower numbers under 10mm?
 
Racing Hard (B-Spec / A-Spec) Every 5 laps,me or bob have to pit

I've noticed that the rear tires disappear into the body with my 30mm setting.:lol: Pitting every lap isn't a problem, but it seems unusual.
