Cool, I haven't been in this game for months so this will be perfect to get me back up to speed.

 

[mister dog]

First run gave this result:

Pretty sure some folk will get close to the 1:40's

 

[carracerptp]

Can't find a line or a gear I'm happy with but better than the 46s I was running.

 

[Im_Lukas]

I love this track, really wish it would feature in more games though. Lovely combo as well, this car is so nicely balanced.

 

[brian wolf]

I love this little gem of a car! I will be posting a time for sure! 👍

 

[carracerptp]

I started messing with the setup and made some improvements. I'm running 0 camber upfront and that oddly feels faster?

Nice one, I'm still trying to reach a 41 but just can't keep it all together on one lap. Forgive me for asking but as a bit of an AC noob how would I go about getting your setup in to my game?

 

[Sureboss]

@Im_Lukas Extract the file and then place the .ini in your setups folder for that car at that track, which should be something like:

Documents\Assetto Corsa\setups\ks_porsche_718\<track name>

I've not actually used this car yet, so not sure of it's full name in the folder above.

 

[Im_Lukas]

@Sureboss Thank you, I was looking around in the content folder but couldn't find anything, didn't realise it had created a folder in Documents.

Basiclly what @Sureboss said full address is:
Documents\Assetto Corsa\setups\ks_porsche_718_spyder_rs\<track name>

I normally put all my setups in the generic track folder so I if I need a base setup I don't have to remember what track I tuned the car at.

 

[Sureboss]

@carracerptp Ah, I'd missed that Generic folder.

 

[mister dog]

Shaved of almost 2 secs tweaking the car a bit to my liking:

I could do 1:42's i think but that will be my max.

 

[Wiz]

So close!

 

[Sureboss]

Now this is an epic combo, I can see me putting in a few laps on this. Not driven Mosport before, I likey.

Instead of double posting I shall edit to include tonight's efforts @mister dog

Very enjoyable combo, pleased to break in to the 42s tonight. I think I'm leaving a couple of tenths in the final corner (those esses are tricky), the double right before the back straight is crucial, the first of the right is a bit of a "nothing" corner, but tricky with the gradient. My best sectors tonight was a 42.7, plenty of time, but more importantly, fun left in this.

Edit: Stock setup only so far.

 

[Wiz]

Not much improvement, yet just enough.

 

[Im_Lukas]

Thanks for posting your setup @carracerptp it didn't feel much different but you've done something right, I got this time on my 5th lap with your setup 👍.

 

[mister dog]

3rd run and seems 1:41's are in reach for me after all :

The 5 of us are within a second of each other 👍

 

[Brindle]

I've never been here before, but after 40 laps...

 

[Wiz]

I've never been here before, but after 40 laps...

I wish this was STGT so I could type some swear words at you.

 

[carracerptp]

@Brindle Well done! Please tell me you didn't do that on the stock setup

Anyway, I did a few more laps and grabbed a 41.260 I think I can get into the high 40s but a low 40 is going to be work.

 

[carracerptp]

After a few more setup adjustments I got down to a 1:40.389 I think I can make 39s but not sure how much after that. I still feel the car can get more front grip than what I have. Still experimenting with camber and tire PSI.

 

[brian wolf]

I`ve finally got around to installing this track.......and what a track! This is going to be sooooo much fun! 👍

 

[Sureboss]

.5 taken off, using the latest @carracerptp tune

My best sectors put me in to the 41s, on the above lap I'd lost .4 in the final sector due to an early downshift causing the final turn to be in opposite lock, fairly happy I held it

 

[mister dog]

OP updated for January

 

[brian wolf]

I shall get the ball rolling with this very beatable time.........

This combo works much better than I first thought! 👍

I`d not downloaded this track before this week. So, there`s loads of time to find!

 

[mister dog]

This combo works much better than I first thought! 👍

They all have to pass my quality testing first

 

[Sureboss]

The ball rolls a bit further...

The car handles better than you think, though there's plenty of 2nd gear on exit corners that require some attention.

 

[Sureboss]

Really enjoying this track now, the first corner is awesome, fastest sectors were about .35 faster than this, but it was my first dip in to the 26s.

I'd lengthened 2nd gear to maximum. A lot of my gains were coming in just timing when the turbo kicks in.
