Hi Patrick,
Thanks for the response. No, I only bought the car tonight and did not make any changes other than mentioned.
(Ride Height, Brake Balance and Torque Split) Any other ideas perhaps?

Rims can not be changed on this car. "Standard" only

I may be wrong, but I think you can change rims as long as they are standard size. On non tuning events you can't go up a size as it affects the transmission settings and Fetchy will reject the replay. I don't think Fetchy can discern what rims you have on the car, so I think you can put on custom rims on the car in the standard size. Anyone that can confirm that please do so as I am not exactly sure.

Correct. Should have been more specific. Standard size only offered.

Hm, after seeing Daniel's splits I think I'm gonna try less camber.
Got few 24.6s in the first sector and finding time in other sectors too. I'll post splits when I break into 1'06s at T3.

Edit: also tried submitting and it worked (with standard size custom wheels).

Only had a quick half hour but I LOVE sliding this car around, I can't imagine it makes for the fastest lap but this thing is a blast to just fling around corners:

Be nice to get some more time on it but we'll see, lap submitted just in case 👍

Are you sure? The OP only covers the concrete areas from turn 7 to turn 11. this is tarmac, and it feels really unnatural to force the car inside the line there. If the white line is track limit here I think I'll sit this one out.
Confirmation, @EDK ? , @Gravitron ?

We've allowed that as track in past events. I will say that its generally NOT the fastest way around this track. Try turning in sooner and keeping your line low and tight. You might be pleasantly surprised.
Caveat is that I've not driven the combo yet, so suppose enough under steer could change that.
This is @Gravitron 's combo, he will make the final ruling.

Its not so much about understeer, more about the immense speed this car manages to build up in that short bit. it just feels unnatural to me, as I almost always use that bit of track, even if it's only like 1½-2 car widths. and it feels faster because you dont need to put any load on the tyres, and you got to go out to the far left for the next turn anyway.We've allowed that as track in past events.

but as you said @Gravitron will have to make the final decision.

I'm not in the habit of giving line advice to guys who are much faster than me, but this track is a special circumstance. I logged about 40 total hours on the 2010 GTAcademy that used the Road 370Z on N3 and Tuned 370Z on R1. With those combos, the tight line was worth nearly a tenth.
