Ferrari F430 Challenge - HSR 650PP - :10 :30 :50

[Mad94d]

I've been testing a new tune, managed a 2'05.4xx with it. It's easy to punch out consistent 5's with it.
Sorry I can't share it yet.

 

[ripping_silk]

Thanks, will try it after the xx:50 race. 👍

Well that race ended fast. Was just myself and some guy in a GTLM. I let him speed off from the start and as expected he went off straight into the sand then quit leaving me to do 10 laps of hotlapping.

I'll be back at 50

Much more stable ripping_silk, although I only just started getting used to it on lap 9.

yeah, quite a different feel. But not sacrificing too much turnability. I'm more consistent with this set up I think. And have gone quicker too. But..... your mileage may vary, as they say

I've got to learn to control the oversteer better, thats all thats slowing me down now.

i'll use a shorter rope to hang myself with next time !

Ha ha!! You were catching me and had the 20s start you gave me down to 13s and then suddenly it was 22s. Then I went off at the chicane and you closed up and were closing the gap but ran out of laps.

Thats it for tonight. Thanks for the tune ripping_silk, and much gratitude for putting up with me learning to drive without any aids. I really appreciate it and hope that soon I'll be able to give you better competition.

If we had both stayed on I don't think I would have caught you. 15 seconds.... maybe. If its just us, I'll try that.. made for a good challenge !! 👍

The night was fun! Thanks Animera... see you next time !

Going to be around in the evening, hoping for some good races.

we've been getting disconnected out of every race for the last 5. I hope it improves for you when you make it here.

 

[Timppaq]

it's been really tacky the last few days... and I usually do have really good connection, but not lately. Wonder why is that.

yes, absolutely awesome. race pace was a bit off but that's because we were side by side and passing each other so often.
Best online race i've had, awesome stuff:tup:

 

[Timppaq]

All the best

Joining @ :50, although I may have to duck out shortly.

 

[Timppaq]

new pb, finally under 21: 20'55.285..

Grandi is here, so if you see 'me' it may be him or me.

 

[RussRobit]

hey Timpaq, I new I should have stayed infront of Clio, as if you wouldn't have caught up anyway.

 

[Timppaq]

haha... was a bit tired that race... sorry for the taps I might have given.

 

[The Outlaw]

My 6-axis is about to go through the wall thanks to these 10 lap events lol. The race is just too long to be consistent enough for entire duration. I still have to wait a month or two until the new Fanatec GT3 wheel is released I'm thinking about possibly taking a break until then, with the exception of taking part in the 6-axis tournament. Playing with this damn 6-axis is really starting to become frustrating, annoying, AND boring 👎 Sorry...just had to vent my frustrations

 

[GTP_Tzayed]

Alas! A new TZT Tune specific for the actual event it's being used for! Check it out in the new garage! I'll be on the track.

 

[Mad94d]

I might get time for a few online races later tonight. I want to test the new TZT tune in an actual race.
PB with tune=2'05.3xx. But there is more left in it!

 

[Animera]

I tried that tune mad94d, but I couldnt control the oversteer when I lifted off the gas, so I went back to ripping_silk's tune and just did a 2:06:775 in free run. Thats my fastest lap since turning off active steering and power assisted steering.

I think that the tune is brilliant and easy to control. I've been able to do consistent mid 5's with it. The tune does take some practice. You need to get used to the feel of the back slightly stepping out. But once you're used to that the 5's will come.

 

[mr_VOLCANO]
