Biggest problem I've had with those 2 is being carefull not to push too hard. Once you lose traction on those corners you lose a lot of speed. My troubles are more with the chicanes. Using a ds3 I get snap over steer and the back end breaks free. Right now I use a steering sensitivity of 6, gonna try something lower.So last night I practiced with the Ferrari at Monza. I am incredibly slow (fastest I could seem to manage was 2:15.1). Any tips? I feel like I am fine at the two chicanes and Ascari but I can tell that I'm losing a LOT of speed at Lesmo and Parabolica.
While I wasn't fast with the Genesis Coupe at this track, I was decent.
I think I need to get the entry speed figured out. What gear do you drop down to for them?Biggest problem I've had with those 2 is being carefull not to push too hard.

Yeah you were much faster than me, no way I could even come close to keeping up. What gear do you take Lesmo and Parabolica?I was practicing with you last night, the few times I was behind you it looked like you turned in a bit earlier than i was (I was running mid-1:12's most of the night), with this car i seemed to pick up a good bit of time on both of those corners by turning in later than initially thought, and getting on the gas quickly tends to help keep the car balanced and not so tail happy. On the other hand I have no idea what I am doing. So take this with a grain of salt.

What speed do you recommend to be in? I've tried 3rd and 2nd for both of those corners many times but can't seem to figure out a good speed.I was in 3rd for both of those corners. Second you would have to shift mid-corner, which threw off the balance (for me)
OK - I will look up my post from last week... or maybe the week before (sigh) on how and when we'll handle things if @goofytyler hasn't announced his selection by later in the day. I know the 'all clear' went out Monday night, and he was PM'd and is aware and has tested stuff last night. I will post in a bit what we'll use, with times, etc.
He's in Arizona, so I am pretty sure that's Mountain time.
if its not on the second post, first page, then chance are good that not all of the combos have been picked, and you only need to go back like 6 posts to see that... Sorry, 8 posts...without having to go back 6 pages...do we know the combos this week?

So we are currently at - with very arbitrary round numbering:
Round 1
Ferrari Dino 246 GT '71 (Sport Hard / 201 hp / 420 PP)
at Monza with chicanes
Round 2:
TBD - GoofyTyler knows his track, will announce once he has chosen the car
Round 3:
Light Car Company Rocket '07 (Sport Soft / 174 hp / 563 PP)
at Brands Hatch Gran Prix (7 laps)
(PT - just 2WD, that's why I think I should go before it gets deep - will see if it works)
And not to advertise, but this guy also has a lot of amazing race and drift tunes if you want to try those as well. Hope you enjoyed the photos.
What about my tunes?
What is everyone's thoughts on the Dino? I haven't taken it out yet but I want to know if I should expect oversteer and the like.
PDTX, in GT5, I had one set up for drifting. good times! that little car has some spunk to it once it gets a bit of a tune. No Spa worthy, but good fun at say, autumn ring mini.
So, No one has thrown out ideas for racing to night, so anyone interest in maybe some Kei car racing or some such nonsense?
Prize A Pick:
After stressing out this week over what combo will be good for this sunday, i have decided on staying with my origional combo which is The Caterham Fireblade at Monaco.
Dont stress over it, there is on right or wrong answer really. Monaco is a sweet pick, i have to google that car though to see what it isPrize A Pick:
