Brilliant I'm in .

Could someone please post a realistic time I should be aiming for. Would be a great help.

Cheers
 
Anyone got any times to post here? I managed a 1:44.7xx on a quick practice tonight.
 
Just gave the car a go around Madrid.
best time was 1:41.47
This car has lots of power for its size 👍
 
Hi guys! This looks like lot of fun! :)

Thanks for the invite Ade, I'm in. Please send me a car because I don't have the '98 Mini and I see that you have them available.

Your in:tup:, I will send you the Mini today.

Edit, the mini has been sent. Dont forget to tune it, drop the weight and put on some Sport Mediums. Do an oil change and put some miles on it. I have been using it in B Spec to run it in, and I am getting 183BHP.

Now that is a fast time, how long before Jamesy picks up that gauntlet.[/QUOTE]

Gauntlet picked up :sly: time to beat 1:40.xxx:cool:
 
OK, new setup.... new times.... much faster.
My best time is a 1:39.930
Sector 1 was perfect, Sector 3 still had time left in it.
I'm sure my new setup is nicer on tire wear, but I will still need to be careful.

The times are coming down, I now need to make some big improvements if I am to get anywhere near 1:39s. That must be an interesting set up you have:sly:
 
Would you guys mind if I post my set-up? I would like to see the time someone else could get with it.
 
OK my cooper tune.

Transmission.


Sorry I don't remember how I set it up but I think it was:

  1. With a default transmission Set the stop speed to 106.
  2. Set the final gear to 2.904
  3. Now set 1st to 3.770
  4. 2nd 3.033
  5. 3rd 2.331
  6. 4th 1.891
  7. 5th 1.560
  8. 6th 1.315

LSD.


10 initial torque

35 Acceleration sensitivity

5 Braking sensitivity

Suspension.


0 Ride Height -20
12.2 Spring rate 3.8
4 Dampers E 3
4 Dampers C 3
5 Anti-roll bars 1

1.2 Camber 0.0
-0.30 toe -0.30

Brake balance.
4 / 9

Notes:

The Dampers still need tweaking. The -30 toe and 0/-20 ride height is what makes the car run 40s to 39s for laps.

Thats so much different to my set up will give it a try over the weekend, probably Saturday, see if I can break into the 40s. Jamesy, BIG GLOVE?

Just asking, does your tune have more or less caber than mine (1.2 / 0.0)?
