I messed up on the submission, copied too much into the title of the message to fetchy. I am not sure if my time will be accepted.

That will be totally up to Vaxen, since he's the one that has to deal with it.

Interesting that you made the 200/200 DF work, and that was quite the last couple of sectors you had there. Is that the setup you are running online?

I figured out on Sunday that the car likes the Chassis Rigidity Improvement. Helped a lot with mid corner stability and let me get on throttle sooner. Then the slight change to my second gear yesterday helped as well. All that stuff was so late in the game, but should be able to put it to good use on Wednesday.

Iam a bit confuced after reading that you have used the body reinforsement , I didnt think we were allowed too use that , but maybe its only when we do the TT its not allowed ?

 

[jammy21]

Yes it is interesting to see other setup with more DF on rear. I did tested many compinations but this one (200/200) works best for me.
No that wasn't one that I used on Saturday. This is only for offline.

It's only not allowed when it's a week that we are not allowing tuning.

It's available on a tuning week.

This was what I outlined in the OP -

• Tuning: Chassis Adjustments Allowed.
• Power Additions NOT allowed, including Nitro, Super Charger, and Engine Tuning.
• In-Race RA Functions: Allowed As Available. Brake Balance changes Allowed.

I am always very careful with it, as it can simply ruin some cars, and of course it cannot be reversed. There might have been a bit of placebo in it for me, but it seemed to help a lot in turns 1 and 2.

Body reinforsement is one thing I almost everytime forgot to test - also this week. There had been couble of time when it's helped but normally it's seems to do nothing.

It used to be totally inadvisable. It basically ruined the car.

I added it and immediately started setting faster times by 3-4 tenths at the sector 2 mark. It was basically making a difference for me there, and at the end of the lap, last couple of turns. The car just felt slightly more stable, allowing me to mash the throttle mid turn, rather than balancing partial throttle.

Again, could be a bit of placebo. Maybe that was already available to me with other tuning adjustments, and I did not try it until adding the reinforcement. At this point, I'd have to buy a second car to find out if that's the case.
