Chris are you going to post a first sector video this week?

I've just done a 1st sector vid actually - I'll upload it shortly. :)

Sweet splits Wes. 👍 Chasing them down... :sly:

24.158
21.721

This is going to be a head-wall interaction come the end of the week... :dopey:
 
A very fun car!

Done a few laps while breaking the car in and having a renewed interest while waiting "patiently" for my rseat cockpit to arrive!

After a few laps of spinning into walls I'll start myself off.

24.545
22.328
 
OK, first sector video. I did a new one for a new PB time through there - 24.089:

​
 
24.224
21.797

Still about .15 left, I had a .891 through t2 then stuck it in the wall at the next left hander.
 
First go at it with praiano's tune. The car isn't as scary anymore and for that I thank you sir. I don't know that I will submit this week because I'm gone for the weekend so I won't have much time to contribute to it but here are my splits anyway.

24.615
22.031

This just might be fun, you know :dopey:

Thanks Chris for the tune and the video. I'll try praiano's tune also eventually.

Its awesome fun 💡 ...and no worries. 👍

Changed my setup a bit:

Max downforce

-50/-50
16.0/18.0
7/9
7/9
7/7
2.0/3.0
0.00/0.40

LSD 20/12/25

Gears:
Set max speed to minimum (all way to left)
Set Final to 2574
Then ratios -
3636
2586
2048
1675
1417

BB 5/2 ABS 10

New splits:

24.164
21.702

Looking for about 0.25 on the lap - a tenth in sector 1, half in sector 2 and a tenth in sector 3. Loving this car but looks like we're going to have another quiet week though. That's a shame.

Chris are you using chassis reinforcement ?
 
Vagabond
Yes, it seems to help tame the rear a little under power. Doesn't help with the lift-off oversteer though. :crazy:

No but higher gear seems to help with that

Keeping the throttle in is better - with only a five speed box and a peaky power curve, you lose too much acceleration just leaving it in a higher gear.
 
I've only run with DS3 so far, < 100miles, but the way my buttons are mapped it's close to impossible to keep throttle in, Chris. :( So I have been doing the higher gear trick and then downshifting to the optimal gear just as I throttle out. So far I'm somewhere between GTP_Coupe and GTP_Mamba (24.477 & 22.303) with a slight tap of the kink wall. Will post splits if/when I get a clean one.

Only used Praiano's so far, which was not bad with the DS3. 👍 Chris's v1 and v2 up next. 👍👍

EDIT: Spoke too soon, nice splits, Sid.👍 Make that "...somewhere between Daniel and GTP_Mamba":lol:

Not so much better on 2 first splits but -0.300 on final lap time.

I use 11.0 front spring now and i reduce top 10 kmh top speed to have a better RPM in the first right turn.
 
My first go because I could n't make the E/U race in time. Chris's old tune

Almost a whole second faster at the line :eek:

But most of the improvement was in T3:

24.408
22.306

Still using Chris's tune, v1.
 
20 laps and I moved one place on the leader board. Ha. Serves myself right for my 5 week hiatus
 
Back from a year and a half break.Good to see that the WRS is even bigger now.

Enough talking and let's get down to the splits.


24.619
22.400


Car is not broke in yet, still 323 HP.

and what the 🤬 is that lift off oversteer ??? Hard combo for a comeback :lol:

Alright, ready or not, here I come, lol. I'm back and better than ever, lol. Alright, so much for my grand entrance, lol.
My splits so far.

Had a nice educational wheel session. :)

Took 30min to beat my DS3 lap by 0.5sec, keeping Praiano's tune w/ my ill-advised gears. :dunce:

Another 20min adjusting to Chris' gears and I gained another 0.5sec, out-dragging my ghost on the straights. :bowdown:

Tried Chris' v2 tune and got scared:scared:, although I did notice the advantage, if controlled properly (Mind them curbs! Lazy lift-off!).
Praiano's has less lift-off oversteer.
But I didn't have a lot of time, so I switched back to Praiano's, and inched toward Chris', with a Sheet C tune I renamed "Prai 2 Chris":sly:. After a couple warm-ups, I got this 'un:

24.318
21.869

According to PB's, though, still .350 hiding...but at least I know where they're hiding. :mischievous: Won't have time to find them though.

Great match of rally car to slidey cobbles, Kev. :cheers:
 
Nice splits guys, I think I'll stick to Praianos tune, Chris's tune is like driving in the rain you have to be so careful, but then again I wasn't using reinforcement. I think t3 is gonna make or break a lap cause you can lose so much time there if you are too hesitant or of you are too aggressive
