*cough* Afraid I'll beat you *cough*

:D
 
why would i be afraid of that?

20/20
45/50
8/10
8/7
0/2
1.0/0
24/16
5/15/60
gears:
1 5.810
2 4.155
3 3.040
4 2.496
5 1.986
6 1.693
F 3.132
A 24
1.00/1.35
Tcs 3

I found that this setup gave me a little more point into the corner and was very stable under heavy braking while changing direction (chicane before T3)
 
anyways of to race, be back later
cheers

Cheers dude. I'll get that copied down. 👍
 
i might not be able to race cause, i have exams all next week, i will see if i can do it between studying.
 
Hey if you got exams, don't skive em off for GT, okay?
 
My best T2 is a 25.9, I think..........just my exit speed onto the main straight seems abit slow, which is a pain in the arse.......im running times under 1 minute(can i say that??) my best 5 lapper time has been pitiful though

A question to Jon, Why 5 lappers???!!!
 
Im gonna try Bollocks's settings - see if I can break the "barrier"
I won another 001 last nite with 829 after an oil change but its a differnet colour and has slightly different power to weight ratio :confused:
is that cos Ive run the other one in ??? So im still only at 813 hp
:( :( :(
:O :O :O
 
Hell Yea

Im a ***** and i like it ;);););)

I will get some more runs in tomorrow

Maaaaaaattttteeeeeeee its my half early exams and im in year 10 which is important here in NSW Australia (its different for each state and territory)
 
set a new lap record (for myself anyway ;) ) after i modded the set up i posted here, sorry guys :D

T1: 11.271, T2: 25.436, T3: 45.053 I'll let you guys figure out the rest

Bet on me scorching around here in the race :cool: love this track
cheers


EDIT: if i get the time that is (to get a clean run in)
 
I've run the 090/s for S & G, Can't get the T2 below 29.xxx
But then it does only have 725 HP.:lol:
 
I'm not doing so well with this race :mad:

Running the F094-S, I'm consistently (4 out of 5 laps) running:

T1: 11.6
T2: 26.8
T3: 47.0

I've run enough laps that I should be running about as fast as I'll be able to, and I'm still 2 seconds off the pace at T3 :irked:

I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.

Any tips?
 
somehow you're losing a lot on T2 luxy, not sure how but I would maybe work on that area.

Nice splits bollocks. It looks like its gonna be a pretty close, fast race between several guys, hopefully I can be competitive. Only one more day of testing.
 
Okay, I've got a bit of a tip for keeping time in T2:

After you come around that sweeping right-hander (the one with the rocks at the left... bang-crunch :irked: ) try to keep to the right as far as possible, then turn in hard, nice and early into the left-hander before the main straight. A split second before you turn in, dab the brakes for just a bit, ie 100th of a second. This'll swing your back end around. If you do it right you should have to counter-steer slightly at the end of the turn.

So if you do the turn properly, you'll dab the brakes at the turn, turn in and just miss the inside wall, you'll be down on the yellow strips, and coming out of the turn the back-end will step out very slightly, and you'll have to slightly (very slightly) counter-steer, just a flick of the analog to the right will do. You should get right out to the wall, but not quite hit it. This is the best approach to this corner.

Okay, I memorised some of your setup, and I tuned only the spring rate, ride height, dampers and toe, and I set a new lap record on this setting alone. I'll use your full setting today. :D

This is how I'm performing:

T1: 11.3xx, T2: 25.9xx, T3: 45.6xx Using your full setting I should perform better. Consistency is the key though... :irked:

I'll probably smash my best time tonight, I'll let you blokes know. :D
 
Ack, I've neglected this race. I'll give it a bash tonight.
 
Good. 👍

What sort of intermediate times are you running, Andy?
