Bridgestone Tour. FINISHED!

[El_Beardo]

I think you have me confused with kermit

Yep. Apparently so in my defence, you were damned quick at RBR in the TT.

I'll have to try this.

MAXPOWER is now running 2-3 to the rear. Not entirely sure how he manages it. I tried, and the rear tries to swing around way too much for my liking.

I only started to get along with the car when I turned TCS off. Maybe I should try it at1 again.

Edit: tried TCS 1. Nope. Lap times goes up several seconds.
I will stay at TCS 0 and BB -2

No worries, mate. Just remember, Cayman race is next Sunday.





+5 points to whoever runs a Baywatch livery on Friday.

i already did the Baywatch thing on a few in my garage

And now the lightbulb is bright!

And now the lightbulb is bright!

Actually I have been running every other car with TCS 0 since. From Gr. 3 down so far.

I run 99% of cars without. With the extra power in this (compared to the BoP) I find I'm far more consistent with it on 1.

 

[RacingGrandpa]

Up to this practice for the race I have never done more than 2 corners with TCS 0, I consistently spun out.
It would seem you did me a big favour here.

not far off... Saalbach, Austria.
I think the Jagermeister and Schnapps will keep any Corona virus at arms length

yeh, we had the breakfast TV presenters over here washing their hands with vodka... what a waste!!

 

[Illum_Concept]

I'm in. Need a practice session tonight, haven't driven it yet and some way off finishing my livery too . 48hrs is loads of time though, all will be well. Must keep it clean this week, too many stupid mistakes so far.....

I'll have a lobby open about 21:30/22:00. Consistency in the latter laps still needs a little work

Nice, I'll kick my wife off Netflix and join you. It won't be pretty

My advice so far is TC1 (helps in the latter laps) and neutral brake balance. Maybe 1 or 2 clicks to the rear, if your driving style can deal with the rear end trying to come around under heavy braking.

Thanks man, that's useful to know. 👍

 

[RacingGrandpa]

And I am slow. Much slower, but I can only drive it at TCS 0 and -2 BB.
But there is no doubt that the other way is quicker.

 

[MaxAttack]

I've found lighting up the rears coming back onto the track after a few trips to the gravel REALLY helps the back end rotate...

Good luck to everyone for tomorrow's race!

Yes, I'll be there.

I'll put a few practice laps in and finish off the paint job tonight.
