David am really sure there isn't a lot of time for me left because with SRF on my ability to achieve under 2:05 is very sketchy if you get my drift:rolleyes:

Maybe my lap wasn't that horrible as I thought than.. Ill try with and without SRF and will let you know.. Some corners I took just awkward when I was running it because I don't remember when I was trying to lap suzuka fast last time.. Maybe 6-7 years ago
 
Am sure the FXX is the fastest of the field I did a few races and the FXX was flying compered to the others?

You might have right but i never find any FXX at the fields i run.
Perhaps is due to lower pp ( 550) and never show up.
Huayra is good enough and for sure faster than McLaren and there many ways to handicap your self already.
If i find the proper time maybe i ll finish it today or during the weekend.

Good time on mission mate ,i hardly gold this one ,must see a vid at the net to realise what am doing wrong.
Although i don't think that this one is for 3-4 sec down from gold time .
See you all at the court guys .

Tinkerbell too much talking but i see no times yet, the girls will destroy you mate :lol:
 
Thanks Master , just happens to run with the Mac and Huayra in same field and was the car to beat .
550pp suits fine for me although i prefer RH hard tyres over the SS but the second choice add more " drama" and i can handle it.
From what i see needs better braking in order not to loose it , smooth reactions , and is closer to the reality .
Of course can't much the " Big " boys but this time I'll do it without aids ( except abs) and 550 pp ,SS tyres following Hugh's proposition .
Sometimes i iike ( if the car helps) to sliding around more than usual but this one i want to race in style as i can of course.
Huayra am coming for you ,just watch your back :lol:

:cheers:
On the brakes I went with 8 on the front and 10 on the rear

Remember basas the more you try the missions and licensing events if you don't Exit you will put more miles on the car and loosing the cars flexibility that makes the event easier to accomplish:cheers:
 
FAST & SMOOTH first session

Good morning mates all over the globe .
Today i send my examines to Noel and a weight left my shoulders @RMan72 put me in enough trouble this round and Paddy was right for the. FXX that was quicker on the field , although was a bit hard to find her.

This week left and hope to be able to provide some " sticks" to @bjl23 for the fireplace in order to keep him warm for the end of his winter :D

Have a nice Sunday and don't forget the Spa gp :cheers:

Edit
Just informed that a fatal crash happened yesterday at Spa and a young guy pass.
RIP and good travel in heaven Antoine.
Will be quite heavy the race climate today.

Not such a good day today ,the sad feeling from the loss of the young f2 driver didn't let me enjoy even the first victory of Leclerc which i like him a lot i can say.
Anyway life goes on and hope to be all in good shape and healthy.

The only thing i play today was the mission part.

The Acura is great but the handicap at pp made this a difficult task .
The no aids status here is out of the question for me :crazy:

You can do it as the keys are all the passes after the corkscrew and the last corner just before the start/finish line pass on the outside at corner T11. Set the transmission like a dragster final gear in the 4550 so you use all the gears to the max. Most passes will be on the outside at Laguna Seca. The passes at the beginning will be on the inside but at the end of the race the most critical passes will be on the outside with the faster race cars and T11 will be the key to winning.

CHIC update
I think I know the reason why I've been struggling with this car 💡
It has 7 gears :banghead:

Well done mate ,my task was to hit 39 high but was on my limit at 40s .
Don't think i can reach you .
Also i don't think that Mario will join us again this round , seems it's busy again.:confused:

At that track is easier for me to use oversteer to turn but need to find the golden spot .
Hope to gain sometime today cause last week the Ruf took my time among smoke and slides.
Kisses to all .

I made some changes to the Acura that will make it a lot less difficult to win this race at Laguna Seca. Change final gear to 4.550 next find the lineup that has the 2 Nissan R92CP and R89C Fast lap this time was much better at 1:25.482 and winning margin was better at 00.219. The pass for the win is still at T11 on the outside over the Nissan R89C. This pass is mission critical but you have plenty time to make the pass on the outside as all the race cars slow way down there. I put this race up to give you all time to practice to win this race. Word of advice some of the other lineups I will have to practice as I have not been able to win when the Toyota 7 is in the race along with the Sauber and Pescarelo. This will be the next race after the RUF race so I put it up now as it will not be easy. Even if you do not win you still have a chance for a podium finish. At the corkscrew you can get taken out of the track and into the dirt. So if some other race car hits you or not give you racing room I am sure you will know what to do there but try as best as you can so this does not come up. Thank you.

Noal I noticed at turn 4 you were late braking and at 5 braking at the turn were I think you shouldn't have . .just my humble opinion I suppose everyone has different driving style's good race!👍

Super great observation on your part and you’re 100% correct I was late breaking on 4 and at turn 5 I should have kept my foot on the gas. I gave you some additional information above that should help you to win at Laguna Seca as that will be the next race. I put the video up there because it’s a difficult race when you have a car that only has PP 537 VS PP750. I normally do not do this but this is not going to be an easy race to win with the Acura NSX LM Race Car. So far I have won it 3 times.
 
@bjl23
Yea.. I hate Fuji:lol:

Btw
I saw some italian dudes racing Stratos and Delta (steeet cars) tuned very well for rally when online was still on.. Never found any setup there :(
Is there some guidelines how to convert street to rally car.. I tried once with bmw 2002 and failed miserably (tune eas from shmo team)..
Im bored.. I need to fix my ps.. If I do Ill try to finish all races in 5 and 6 until 7 comes :lol:

NO-TUNE
Good car is this supra, I do think Fuji speedway is a under rated track as it doesn't get used much.
Good choice @paddycars1

Basic rally tuning tips:
  • Max downforce
  • Soft suspension (springs & shocks)
  • High ride height (use lower rear to reduce understeer)
  • Set camber and toe to 0 f & r (add some -ve rear toe to make the car turn a bit better)
  • More rear bias on the brakes (5,7 for example)
  • 50 50 center diff
  • LSD decel to 5 f & r
  • LSD accel to c.25 f & r
  • LSD initial to 5 f & r
  • Short gears
