Oh This setup is really not making my week! :)

If it weren't for some nice peeps here outlining their own personal settings, I'd be sitting at the bottom of the Div 3 leaderboard after this race! But, with a few settings taken from everyone here...I've been able to knock out a:

T1 = 27.9XX
T2 = 1'04:6XX

Can't wait until tomorrow when CFM let's us know what car we'll be using on da Ring :D

HINT: BMW 320i or RUF BTR PLEASE! :)
J/K!!!!!

Not that this is a germane follow up to this thread, but any feedback on Forza?

I must admit my main attempt is to get you busy with Forza so I don't lose too much ground to you on the leaderboard!

HA! Unfortunately that's not likely to happen.

I don't want to drag this thread off topic, so I'll post my response in our Div3 thread.
 
Well, I've managed to improve my time a skosh but after 1100+ km on the odo and multiple oil changes, my max HP seems to have dropped one to 510. Any ways to fix this other than to buy a new car? Of course that 1 HP won't boost my feeble time up into the stratosphere of D1 drivers, but...

Still gonna give it a go tonight before submitting...

BTW, what steering settings to you DFP drivers use?

after 32 laps according to the 83.9 miles on the car, i think i am gonna call it a week. I am surely not in the points, but i just can't muster the focus to continue.

Same thing happened to my car at about the 1,000 mile mark. I was running the car in b-spec from 850 miles to 1,000 so I could do a chassis refresher and noticed the car still didn't drive as well as when I first bought it. So I bought a new one anyway and all of a sudden I was back to running the laptimes I had before -- worth a shot if you have the funds.

As for the DFP, I only ran a few laps of this challenge with it (found it was easier to maintain rythm with the DS2 rather than re-learn the track with the DFP).. but settings were:

* Active Steering: Off
* Power Assist: On
* Feedback: 0% (unplugged from the wall).
 
You know what's also irritating? Accidentally hitting the suspension type dropdownlist, which resets your suspension settings to defaults. GRRRR I never got back to the original ones, and never found a new set to improve my time.

Here are the T's for what I submitted:
T1: 0'28.181
T2: 1'04.801

Division 2, using a DS2.

I expect to end up between flat-out and CalibreDan, at the end of the div2 list. (see http://www.luxy.ca/wrs/leaderboard/5 )
 
Submitted my time as well. Pretty funny that like the top half of D2 and 1 D3 driver whooped my arse by T2 :)
Guess this week's race exposed a huge weakness in my driving :sly:
 
my best t2 was like a 1'o3.145...saw several in the mid 1'02's but always screwed up the roundabout or my exit onto the main straight. but that t2 still beat a t2 in the 1'02 range...seems like i always give up some to gain at the end....
 
OK after 1020 km - this is what I have:

T1 27.135 - best i had was 26.845 but lost it :/ (26.xxx is possible with slight curbs touching (not wall touching) that sets car in good position to just speed up, almoust without turning)

T2 1.03.382 im totally loosing everything in sector 2 :(

DS2, AT, Division 2

I ran in the 1'03's stock ... all the HP and a small gear ratio change to accomodate the long straight, but with nothing else adjusted and the gear ratio actually being *wrong*, it is still possible to run in the 1'03's.

Hmmm, maybe it's possible for you and all the other actually talented drivers! :yuck:
 
I hated this car so far so i won´t try anymore. Think i could pop off more 0.5 but that´s ok for me. I hate FF cars, i think my time is enough.

T1 i sucked with 27.2xx
T2 i was average with 1"02.043

i will post it in some minutes, togheter with my qualifier lap.

Well ... don't POST it, literally, but send it to CFM ... right?
 
Sorry CFM :indiff: ...too many projects this week, only found time for about 100 Miles. Will try to put in a better effort next race! 👍 Time submitted...O.G. :D
 
My best saved time is about .9 faster than what is currently shown on the leaderboard, I just haven't had the chance to post it for leaderboard inclusion. Tonight I'll give it another 45 minutes or so, my first attempt since last Thursday, and see where I end up as of tomorrow morning.
