Uhh... Passionate Pink.

 

[Carbonox]

Do-it-yourself...

 

[DaxCobra]

Do-it-yourself...

Huh.

 

[Carbonox]

In other words, I'm annoyed with you because you may like cars, but will become totally hopeless when actually commandeering a living creature.

I command cats...

They're not ridable though...

Well, at least not legally...

Woah Maybe I'm to dirty minded..

I have one more question, I just realised that after running in and an oil change my Elise was producing more than the stated 172bhp- do I have to limit it back to 172bhp?

 

[Carbonox]

I have a quite positive view on my testing so far. Been doing Grand Valley Reverse like someone in another page (waiting for a Spa room), and the car does behave pretty well, though there is still oversteer at the tightest corners.

2'03.943

That was me. Yeah I'm getting snap oversteer into that really sharp hairpin due to the elevation change. Stiffening the rear seems to get rid of the majority though. 👍

Hi all,

I'd like to join!

GTP: MiuraSV
psn:Jay_1086
Colours: Black/Fluorescent blue
Number: 14, if possible

 

[Carbonox]

Can we buy the LSD?

 

[FordMKIVJ5]

I don't think so, but Dax should be able to verify this. EDIT: Are you definately on racing hards as I don't seem to be having as many problems?

 

[neljack]

Nope dont think so Carbon

Of course. And I don't have problems with anything except oversteer at low speeds - in most of the corners, it handles like a dream.

Hey Carbon I have a lounge set up at spa if you want to join in practice? And anyone else here who wants to.

 

[Carbonox]

I'll go eating while my room is cleaned up, see you guys on the track when I come back...

 

[DaxCobra]

Hey Carbon I have a lounge set up at spa if you want to join in practice? And anyone else here who wants to.

Welcome aboard,

And I might open a room in a short while after the GP.

 

[MiuraSV]

Ok Dax nice one and thanks for the welcome.

 

[DaxCobra]

Ok, the series will start next saturday guys!

 

[neljack]

^:d

 

[Carbonox]

So, what do I exactly do when I need to stiff the rear? Move the sliders to the right?

Anti roll bar stiffer at the rear is higher number, same with the spring rate and Ext/Compression..

Only stiffen the rear roll bar if you have body roll though, if you don't have body roll you may need to loosen the car.

 

[JBF1MSC]

Thank you for adding me

OK so I bought a premium 96', did race modifications. Added racing hards & top turbo.

No more upgrades right? no manifold or filter etc?

Going to start practice at spa now and start tuning the suspension, anybody else doing this online in a private room?

 

[DaxCobra]

Yup, thats right. All you have to do now is fine tune the suspension and other settings, race clean and win.

 

[JBF1MSC]

Easy as that then?

Just done a few laps practice round spa to get a feel for the elise (closest I race is the s2000), great car and stock setup on hards is great, too much grip and not enough power, its going to be close guys!

What sort of times are we looking at for spa? 2:30's?

Also, off racing line grip set to real i presume? no boost? weak slipstream? Are we using changeable weather for spa?

Weather will be set to on, so I would bring an umbrella..

and yep, weak slipstream.
