I may have accidentally just made my best tune ever:scared:. 15.367, but there is so much time left. I completely missed the apex of turn 4, and I dipped 2 wheels into the gravel on the out side of turn 5.


Edit: 15.232. Still time left.

On absolute raw pace, there is a wheel advantage. However it's all about what you practice with.

Another factor is that if you are away from the game for a few days or a week and come back using a wheel, everything is fine, however if you return and are using the controller (buttons) your thumbs get a hiding and will become very sore. So sore in fact it makes play difficult if not impossible for a while.

When I used to use a controller, I never had any problems with cramping up, or soreness. You guys are all just getting old:P

Getting old? You got that right, but my thumbs have callouses on the end of them, towards the r/hand side on the right one and l/hand side on the left one, however even so, after a spell from playing they become so sore I just can't continue.
I have heard wheel players here say they have played until their hands bled, but I take that with a grain of salt.

Really?.....because I've got the blood stains on my wheel to prove it. ;) After all I have played through, I don't wanna hear about your little fingers getting sore with callouses. :rolleyes: :lol: Talk to me after you have played right after a back operation, (which I have been doing again here recently by the way-4th back operation a few weeks ago) stitches busting (a few years ago after another back operation during the Academy), pain so bad that you can hardly see straight. :crazy: And that's just the tip of the iceberg. :P So yea, I don't wanna hear about your little fingers hurting. :P :lol:

hahahahha, "I don't wanna hear about your little fingers hurting" you should ad that to your signature :D I mean I sort of know what you are talking about, my hands are cramping while I try to write this :D

Well, maybe if you let loose of that beer once in a while you wouldn't have that problem. :lol: And just fyi, I'm just messing with Dalone, I have to give him some crap every now and then otherwise he may think I don't love him anymore. :mischievous: :sly: :lol: :lol:
 
Well it's not actually my little fingers, or even my big fingers which hurt, it's my thumbs.

And yep, they stick out like ..... sore thumbs. On top of that, the day before yesterday I spent a couple of hours cutting down a few trees (killed by white ants) and piling up all the timber to burn next wet season and (oh dear) suffered a number of cuts to my fingers and thumbs, some I didn't even know about until I rubbed metho on my hand. It found them.
And while we're talking about bad backs, I was on a disability pension previously (now on a aged pension) due to mine, and as you would know, they never really get better, you just manage to deal with them as best as you can when they play up.
Anyway, here's some good advice Cargo, next time you're playing for a long time and your fingers start bleeding, STOP playing. Cheers mate.
PS, do you have a tune to share for this one?

Hahaha, you clearly know what you are talking about, and your little debate whit dalone is just quite hilarious sometimes :D

:cheers:

Really like how you explain your changes. Good stuff, thanks.

Second that, it's always a really good thing if tuner gives out any hint how he got to the result or even just tells what he thinks of it.

Really look forward trying this tune. I'm currently driving on Weider tune but I had to change LSD settings quite much and ended up fiddling with dampers and such and it never ends well when I try to tamper with suspension too much :D

Thanks of course again for all the tuners.
