@WestRoadZ Wow! Mesmerising lap. Clean and very quick.

May I ask why you don't use the 8th gear? Or have you customised your W08 to run top speed in 7th?

Here's my lap, with default gear ratios. I ran out of gears too fast, and constantly wanting more speed at 8th. My lap time is way off your sub 5. I'm losing so much time by not having long gears.

Thanks for sharing and showing how it's done.

I wanted to have as much traction as possible so I changed the transmission to run to 7th so I could be on full power 2nd and 3rd gear through the slower corners. I got the base setup from another GTP Member:

MINKIHL

But I have made minor changes to the LSD and of course the transmission. Welcome to check out his setup or see if my adjustments help at the ring.

Also, with the transmission changes, I only top out at 334km/h with the hopes of having better acceleration and getting the power down out of the corner as quick as possible. As well as full down force, I sacrifice top end speed for stability and acceleration through the technical bits.

I took the W08 for a night lap and it was fun.

Is that extremely high pitched sound present is in real life as well? It's hurting my ears.

Thanks @WestRoadZ for the insights and very useful tips.

I see your car is all about corner speed. My W08 was topping out at 355km/h, by using front/rear aero at min 1300/1800, which makes it slow powering out of corners....corner speed triumphs over top speed.

Cheers mate, look forward to your next hotlap, a sub-4:50 Nordschleife no doubt :cheers:
