Here's a combination of the two...

Doesn't look that comfortable to use though!

Thanks everyone for some great racing as usual! 👍👍

 

[gnorman]

That was fun. Need to sort out my tune as I was all over the place. or maybe that was just my 'Ring driving.

[Mr Gear]

Was good tonight, if you could avoid the odd "stray"

 

[JockeP22]

I will also restrict the weight to 666 kg minimum.

I think that's a great idea. Good job, Mik. \m/

I believe you mis-quoted me there, devilboy?

If you need help with tuning, let us know. Somewhere back in this thread we have suspension and transmission setups, when I'm back on the computer I'll link this post to them.

EDIT: Can't find them now, too many pages, lol.


Here is my current suspension setup:

Front/Rear
RH: 100/65
Springs: 4.00/5.59
Comp: 4/9
Ext: 6/9
ARB: 5/7
Camber: 0.0/0.5
Toe: 0.00/-0.15

 

[FergusMik]

Some shots from Willow Springs...

I believe this is what you were after Mik for @gnorman to try out as a starting tune.

Thanks If. That tune is a good start for most, as you can see by my edited post above, I have since changed it to a more aggressive suspension setup.

Since your investigative skills are so awesome, do you remember what page I posted my transmission tuning method on?

 

[IfAndOr]

Sherlock Holmes on the case. Actually I used the search function!

MIK's super duper transmission guide

The search function! Now why didn't I think of that? I guess 3 laps around Nurburgring with Smiley on my tail, tuckered me out.

However, we will know by the "hissing" sound if someone is on the "dark side".

This is what you really have to worry about if you hear a hissing noise from under the hood!

Worthless fact of the day;

A 'Hiss' is actually a Swedish word. It means elevator / lift.

 

[RMan72]
