BST | V-Spec Challenge | S8 Thread Up Soon

[DrifterJoe]

Hmm, I might have found something. Never mind for now. I did some more tweaks to your original setup, JB. It made it a bit looser under power again, but got some pace from it. I'll probably spin out of the first corner at some point, but it's 3 tenths faster than what I was running.

With the tweaks, the issues are still mainly turn 1, but it also wants to drift round turn 2 and 3 if I take the fastest line over the curbs.

Dont know if the setup im running now is the one i sent you originally or theres a gear thing going on i sure as hell cant drift it even with my wheel being half sensible anyway Im more than happy to send the 140.6 setup car over to you if you'd like to try it.

I think the car you sent was setup specifically for Fuji, so it may not be the same. May as well send it, I'll give that car a try sometime this week and see if it feels better 👍

The only 1 we have will be at the end of the S6 thread 👍 not as detailed as his as we've lost loads of data through the years.
Come to think of it BST is coming up to its 2nd birthday

Will you update it at the end of the season?

I don't know why I like the "all time" stats so much, just find it kind of cool

Personally I think all the regulars in this series have got a lot faster over the last few seasons! You could make a mistake and still win a race back then where as now one error and you are pretty much at the back of the pack...

Skeng It would be hard to compare times from the earlier seasons with cars, specs changing plus all the updates which have affected certain cars.

Had a good practice and made some changes to my setup and hit a PB 1:40.0xx. Car is so much easier to drive now.

 

[V8-Johnboy]

Great time there Hanc.
