For the record, that 58.991 I ran in practice was probably one of those magic laps. As for any aliens, it would be their time on Tuesday. 
I can't quite figure out my mileage. I want to say it's 4.6 Liters to the lap, but I'm not certain. Grrrr, I'm a race car driver, not a calculator.

Already got my fuel strategy calculated down pat. As long as I don't screw myself like last weekend and have to pit early for damage because I'm an idiot.

Anyone know if there is truth to these posts relative to steering angle.

24 hours left until the qualifying deadline.
If you can't make the race, please let us know.
Ok Stretch, see you next week.
@Jeff : interesting, I am going to have a go with the steering adjustments.

IIRC, I have it set at 2. Gonna test this out when I wake up in a few hours.

Very interesting. Thought it only was for DS2 but had mine at 7 just in case and as I thought it was the most sensitive. It seems like the opposite. Will surely try this out.
Thanks for posting

That's a heck of a great time.
Test the fuel consumtion a bit more. It's not rocket sience. I just drive 10 laps, pit and see how much I can put in the tank, then divide by 10. Its a conservative way of doing it and have used it twice and left me with just below 10 liters in the tank.
BTW, my consumption is about 4.4 liters, and I think my car is rather thirsty, so 4.6 seems high.

Basse has just tried it and said it is a lot more responsive on -2.

wtf! I've tried this before with the same idea of changing steering lock amount and didn't notice a change! I swear, it was just a couple months back, did this change just recently? This is a big deal! I can possibly get a real race car lock! Super GT cars, and GT cars in general, use around 540 degrees.

I am going to try it later. I must be naive, I have never altered it.

sucks to have a wheel that can't be set to any arbitrary wheel rotation number.
Well I could still bust out my CSR, I totally forgot to even try to change the DOR (Degrees of rotation) when using it for GT5 haha.
I would still be slower with it anyway, so noping right out of that one.

Well thats just great... That S section in section 2 can kill a good lap time.

Will there be anyone around @22-23:00UTC? I've got another race before and since Saturday is now out for qualification I will need to squeeze in after that race.
My experiment at the university is currently running again, giving me very little time within the week to test/qualify.

Im happy if the will be enough for d1. Did a 59.5 before i did my q, and the first split on the second lap was just as fast so thats why its no such a good lap time.

There should be a room open. If there isn't , post in this thread when you are ready to qualify and I will jump on and watch you 👍
