Formula season: Nordsleife!!!

[Jko78]

Hello!

I'm almost bist of to playing GT4. 97.1% complete and I driving formula season right now. And that season lasts 1.5years now. I stucked to Nordsleife. I wont to win it!!!

But because there is long periods without driving GT4 I cant win it. my record in nordsleife is 5.25. And now i can only get time 5.55.

What is proplem? tyres. I have to go pit in every lap and coputer cars in every second lap. I really need get 15 laps under time 5.35. Drive like schumaher: pit to lead. but i got to short nerves to make it.

Somerbody must got some tip that tyre proplem. What is your car setting?

I got 99.7 winning persentage. That because I mis two races in the begining. And I don't get those races again then and I save second places. That so sad but I really don't wan't to start whole game again..

Please somebody... give some tip to win nordsleife formula race!!!

TY!!!

In terms of tire wear, it's important to know whether you use driving aids or not. If you're driving without them, throttle modulation will be extremely important - spinning your tires exiting a corner is the single biggest problem with tire wear. Spin-outs and coming back on from runoffs can be a problem too. Drive as carefully as you can with well-restrained throttle out of slow-speed corners, and use gentle braking force over a longer braking zone rather than hard late-braking

Now for settings on the Nordscheife - this can be a challenge with the FGT. You HAVE to go as soft as you reasonably can because this is such a stiff chassis and the track is so uneven. Set the Damper Bound VERY low, I would suggest no higher than three. Whatever bound setting you choose, set the rebound 2 or 3 clicks higher to keep the tires planted after hitting a bump. Set your spring rates reasonably low as well, but keep them hard enough to be responsive. Naturally, as you soften the suspension, you'll need to raise the ride height. I would go up at least 2/3 of the way to prevent bottoming out on the backstraight. Lengthening the first few gears will also help reduce wheelspin. Stronger differential settings may also help.

I know it defies the logic of reality as far as car tuning... but for the differential I like the Accel and Initial settings as high as they go for the Formula. I've found that setting the Brake or coast-down around 40 to be the best.

Im currently up to race 6 on this dumb season. I can't even do anything else in the game till I finish the championship is what sucks. At least the payoff is worth it. Im not gonna kill myself if I can't beat some of the races. As long as I have the most points after the last race is over, I can move on and I get my 3 million and prize car. My strat is to qualify at first, get as far away from them as possible(maybe about 1 lap) and let my B-Spec driver take over.

Tyre wear is always an issue with the Formula GT. Setting the Toe angle to 0 or 1 is the first step, but after that it is mostly a matter of smooth driving. The 'Ring is a killer, and I could only get 1 3/4 laps before they were toast. At least the last 1/4 lap is mostly straight!

I have created a quick guide to getting 200 A-spec points in all races in the Formula GT championship. It should give you an idea of pit strategies, laptimes and basic setup - just remember not to add the ballast weight if you are looking for an easy race.

My B-spec won me this race, I made him practise on Nurburger for hours and get good at it, trained him in battle skills against other Formula GT cars, and then entered him. He couldn't last as many laps but he was much faster than they and so he won.

it seems to help (at least with b-spec), to not take on any fuel until youve 10 units of fuel. when you get to that point, you only need as much fuel as it takes to put fresh tires.
