That's a great tip, that was actually bugging me that you had to cycle through them.MFD cycle button. If you press and hold it with a page open, the MFD will close and the next time you press it the same page will open.
I love this game but the lack of instructions drives me crazyTire widget. The length of the center tread bar changes with tire pressure. When even with the other two bars, the tire is at optimum pressure.
The color is the temp. Only the center bar changes length, so at 27.5 psi, optimal pressure on dry (higher for wet), the three bars will be the same length, under pressure the center is shorter, over pressure longer.I love this game but the lack of instructions drives me crazy
I thought the color of the tire represented optimal tire pressure. When you say length of the bars you mean up and down right?
How would I have known this if you hadn't told me? I wouldn't have even thought to look it up.The color is the temp.

Thank you

now that I look at that picture, I do believe I've seen it before. The problem is it's hard for me to remember where I saw all the little tips and tricks.I thought you knew that.

Spend some time in that section and you'll be able to apply for job on a GT3 team by Christmas.
This is why I haven't touched settings at all and wont for a while.Did not know you could turn it off I thought it was set so you don't over push.
I know you can choose auto or a set ratings.
Tip:
Its not worth changing your car setup until you can do at least 30mins race with no mistake.
If you can't do more than 20 laps consistent then you never know what to change to improve.
Focus on consistency before blaming the car .
Also make sure you have a good wheel setup try it in all weather conditions to make sure you can get around the track consistently, even if it's a 4 seconds off your best time then keep going until you can go around consistently within 1sec of your best time for 30mins.
After that try with the AI once you can do that then play with your setup
I had a big jump in CC rating when I decided to short shift and use a lower dry ECU mapping for the Monza enduro. So, I guess I would suggest you try racing on a track you know well (or is easy for you), and cruise around (if you have a big lead) or follow the AI.Does anyone have any tips on getting your car control rating up?
I've been hovering around the 75 mark, sometimes it goes up, sometimes it goes down. I found in options you can set it so you can monitor if you're doing good or bad for a particular rating. I turned on the Car Control one, and it's saying I'm overdriving the car/ turning too much in situations where I really don't feel like I am, for example Turn 2 at Hungaroring (long downhill left-hander).
Maybe I just need to look at reference laps more?

I'd also say that running hot laps, or practice would probably be a better way to improve CC as there's no AI to influence your speed and lines.
In career mode I've found that the AI struggles at one corner for every track haha.Bit more on this...
I just did a quick race at Zandvoort in the McLaren 720, 30mins, with the stats monitor on CC... it was interesting!
Starting at the back, with AI on 95/85, it was almost impossible to get green segments when following the AI... even when the field spread out a bit, they were running at their optimum pace, and I was keeping the distance constant, I would get some blue segments every lap for not being fast enough. There are a couple of corners where they are particularly slow, and I'd have to brake earlier than I want and wait to get on the throttle. My CC went down from 90 to 88 over the 1st 12 minutes of the race.
Once I'd moved up to 6th place or so I started to get some traffic free laps, so I could run closer to my pace... here I was expecting to get a lot of orange segments for over driving, but I only got the odd one... too much steering on entry, or some oversteer on exit was usually accompanied by a 'OK, but messy' comment. I got no further 'slow' or 'very slow' comments. Mostly I was either 'fine' or 'OK', with a lot of 'good' and the odd 'perfect', but I did have one off track. CC stayed at 88.
Once I'd got in to 2nd place with about 7 minutes to go, I ran consistently close to my optimum, had no off tracks, no major overdriving comments, and my CC then went back up to 90.
In addition to the CC changes, my CN increased to 92 (from 91) and my SA to 73 (from 68 - lots of very close driving, no contact and a lot of clean overtakes).
If anything, I think I need to go faster to improve further.

(Sorry for the double-post)I tried to force my display to CC in hotlap (within the special event) but it didn't show anything. Is that normal or a bug?
I will like to piggyback on this and say driving either McLaren will help boost your CC. lol. I say this, because every time I drive the 650S or 720S, my CC goes up. For example, after doing a few runs for the superpole at Barcelona, my CC went up 18 pts...Bit more on this...

Did you know the fireworks have physics too? The time it takes the sound to travel to you depends on distance and weather.
