Time Trial Discussion

Thanks for the gears and setup gained me 1.3 seconds on the first lap.

 

Well done

Yes nice gear , i also very quickly improve
Thanks @v8_pursuit for this excellent gear box

 

Great lap time.

You´re welcome.

 

Hi guys

Gonna give the red bull ring tt a go this week so will try a couple of the tunes.. Thank you for sharing them

One question, which car of the 2 are people using?
Thanks

Bert

 

TOP GERBOX SETUP just did a 01:54.626 optimum lap 01:54.242

 

Man, I do hate that redbull ring.
Will test the v8 gearbox, need to rev the bolts out of the gt with my setup.
1:54.683 atm. Lose 1 sec on t1

 

I think You’ll find that most people are using the Toyota
Well certainly I am, and I’m using the Settings from @v8_pursuit, they seem to suit me fine; thank You for posting them
I did a 1.54.958 with the old gearbox, but when I changed to the new one, it gave me a big improvement to a 1.54.294 -and i’m even more confident with these gears to improve on that, than i was with the old gearbox.
Can’t resist mentioning, that furthermore I’m rapidly approaching Geezer-age and I’m sitting in an armchair, using DS4 with x-and Squarebuttons for throttle and brake -meaning my throttle is the on/off-type, and i don’t do simultaneous brake/throttle...
Will try out @xtrax ’s settings at some point...

 

@v8_pursuit Well done!
Amazing setup with your new gears. It works really well on this combo.
Thanks for sharing!

 

I try setup on both cars , i don't feel really a difference

 

@v8_pursuit did a new try with your setup.

But i still have issue on some corners. I lost the rear, probably i keep my feet on the break or accelerate to early.
But I manage to do 1.53.903 by just reducing the front height to 130 mm so not too bad

And by changing parameter by parameter, I arrived slowly to this new setup, obviously with your excellent gear box
New time 1.53.649 with the subaru

 

Super time using the DS4

Sorry to ask, what means Geezer-age, i try in google translate but it gave as answer Age Geezer. This doesn't help me.

 

Thank You. Excellent time You have; Will try Your setup.
I think another expression for Geezer would be “Old Fart” In GTPlanet world it also refers to a group of players at the age of 60+. I think @Stewyripper belongs to that group. I’m not quite there yet,as i will turn 58 at June 3.

 

Thanks for explanation

Ok i have some time to reach Geezer age, but not so much Only few years less than you

 

Redbullis is slowly opening its secrets to me. 1:53.473
SUPER thanks to v8 for the transmission


heres my tune for gt.

 

@sdi_03 super time
i will try your setup, thanks for sharing
Yes this track is not easy and many difficulties to manage .

 

You did a great lap.

Super lap time. And thanks for the tune. I will try this later.

Same here. Fantastic time and thanks for the share. I will try this later too.

 

Hi mate for the first time in over a month, I am finally using my wheel again and I hope to be around your time soon I hope .

 

I'm happy to see you back in the grid my friend.
Cheers for a good competion.

 

@sdi_03 and @xtrax: I tested both of your setups, but I had only time for a couple of laps. I came close to my best time with both. So each is excellent as I can see on the leaderboard too.

But as stated, this track is tricky, and sometimes I have oversteer and sometimes understeer, but with both setups at different turns. Maybe a combination of both should suit my driving style. I will post my results.

But anyway, I have much fun exchanging setups with you and so to improve and to learn and to be a better driver. Thanks for that.

 

Nice to see @xtrax & @sdi_03 stirring up the TX clan a bit
I’ve been using @v8_pursuit’s setup conservatively till today, when i maxed out at 1.54.001. I tried @xtrax setup, but i couldn’t get to grips with it; kept losing the rear.
This evening i went for @sdi_03’s setup. Though it did feel harder to drive -the DS4 probably isn’t making it easier- I immediately felt, there was a sharper turn-in; that it would only be a matter of time till i could control it and improve my best lap. And sure enough: within the hour, i did a 1.53.810 -quite happy with that.
Thanks to the folks that are sharing their setups here. I’d be lost without You!

 

Yes you 're right, when you are confortable with a setup for several days you have some marks and reflex and changing with a new setup, it's take time to change mark and reflex. I think it's what happened when i try your setup and @sdi setup.

and mix of setup could help without changing the complete setup.

Yesterday i improve to 1.53.328 with the same setup except for rear toe set to 0.00 instead of +0.15 ,=> taken on @sdi_03 setup
as i already took the height and camber from @v8_pursuit , I will say that my setup is already a mix of setup Thanks guy for sharing setup

Whouah great time with DS4 , for me it's impossible to drive with DS4

 

Absolutely brilliant time. I´m 1,5s behind.

My setup after a couple of days is a mix of setups too. I usually apply what works for me best. And your time is very impressive.

 

Hi guys, I finally got under 1:55. Exactly 1:54,847. Here's my setup with a gearbox update. But remember, I'm A DS4 user driving with the sticks and automatic gears, so this is might not an improvement for everyone. Give this a try:
The basic setup is from @sdi_03 with the following changes:

BB - 3
Front height 145mm
Rear camber 1,5

Gears:
Final to 2,500
Max speed to min
4,549
3,517
2,929
2,508
2,179
1,885
Final gear remains at 2,500!!!

You can play with the individual gears to suit your driving and braking style.
Have fun...

 

Talk about tight - I improved my BMB time by about a tenth and moved up over 1,000 places!!!

 

Hi everyone,Ive been lurking for a while. Thanks for sharing setups and gear ratio’s. Does anyone consider changing the rims of the car with 2 inch up? If so, any of them better than the other? I see the no 1 on the board has upgraded his (if I am right). Happy racing
