Just wondering how many of you that raced last night used the setup below? Its what I used and I had a very difficult time keeping up with the top 4.
I'm not real adept at tuning....
Tuning will be allowed in this series.
My Set Up:
Ride Height = 4.17, 4.21
Natural Frequency = 2.00, 2.00
Anti-Roll Bars = 6, 5
Damping (Compression) = 66, 66
Damping (Rebound) = 93, 93
Neg. Camber = .6,1.8
Toe = 0.0,0.0
My gear set:
Top Speed - 143mph
1st - 3.187
2nd - 2.382
3rd - 1.892
4th - 1.570
5th - 1.362
6th - 1.235
Final - 2.866

I used that exact setup just with the final gear pushed up slightly to 2.900. I also tuned my LSD to 10 20 15 and put brake bias to -5 toward the front and that made turn 1 nice and stable for me. I made these adjustments right before qualifying based on feel. When I entered the room I was using that exact setup.
I can work with you during the week to test setups for next weeks race or just send you the tune I end up with. Clean racers tune is pretty good off the bat but the LSD and brake bias adjustments I made just make it feel more stable for me.

I used the same setup at Kyoto along with some gearing changes and brake bias changes I made during the race. I shouldve made a gearing change but didnt have time too last night. The racing was great last night between everyone.

Glad to see you guys talking set ups.
My intent is to continue hosting races with this car after this season. It was always meant to be a car for road courses. I hadn't run it on ovals at all until the idea of using it as a support series came up. I'm glad it did though. The car is a hoot at those tracks.

10/26/2018 30 laps Energy Drink GP Red Bull Ring Short Circuit....I believe that this race was pushed back due to the week off with the Indy Light Series. I may be wrong but @Clean Racer could clear it up for you.

@Whitey093 holy crap that race last night was amazing. I could get along side you but couldn't complete the pass. Honestly that was some crazy driving for 15 laps or so separated by half a second or less.
I wanna thank @Clean Racer and @aceboy127 for hosting and doing the dirty work to make this league one of the most competitive I have been in

The series will be moving to Tuesdays in two weeks. I will still host informal events with the MX-5 on Tuesday nights until I can get a new thread up and running. Due to my RL work schedule I am only available Tuesday night on a weekly basis. Keep an eye out for a different IRS event on Friday nights.

It's a 2 minute plus lap at Catalunya. I think 5 lap races would be best for tonight. That way late comers can join in if they miss the first race.
Lobby will be open at 8:30pm eastern so folks can practice. First race shortly after 9pm. See you guys there!
