I don't suppose you would like to share your set up with me? I seen to be struggling a little.

 

[Adventuruss]

I have no clue which direction to go with this RX-7. I'll be on later if anyone could help me with the setup.

I am going to open a room at approx 18-30 UTC, about 4 hours 15 mins after this post.
I intend to run 7 lap races every 15 mins or so and then at 20-30 UTC if there is enough interest run a 25lap race.
All welcome.

 

[Paginas1]

Hmmm that might be a good reason to get the wheel out hehe

 

[cicua]

Me too.

25 lap race, starting 15 mins from this post
Race finished.

 

[OwensRacing]

This tune netted me 55.6 and consistent 55's. Few tight turns you may need to feed the gas to keep the car going forward and not inertia slide the rear out.

Objects in motion want to stay going straight. Altering there direction is best done gradually while keeping a forward velocity. Think about it. My ride ht maybe loading the rear more but I like that cause it makes a car turn. Over a run helps balance wear too.

Gearing. Move final gear right. Top speed left. Then set to match if want my gearing. Which seems real close.

Was not looking good for one stop when I stopped my race. 2 stops will be the norm I reckon.

Thanks.I will give that a try.
It's a lot softer set up than mine.

I've already posted this in the CALM thread, but I won't be racing this weekend. I've got an exam on Monday and I'll be spending the weekend studying. Hope you all have a good race 👍

 

[Adventuruss]

Ugh, just got home. Anyone down for practice?

EDIT: Room open.

I know how that goes...it sucks. Assuming you're taking summer classes, I for one, will never do such a thing. I'll enjoy the pointless 3 month summer break for as long as I can. Think about it, after graduation, there are no more breaks. Good luck on your exam nonetheless!

Welp, I was bored today so I decided to take some pictures of our last race. Hopefully I get the descriptions right

First turn action:

Post first turn:

Grayfox and I swapping positions in the first couple laps on the main straight:

Several laps in, the front of the field is still tight:

Starting to get spread out:

Team Arta going at it:

Top 3 braking going into turn 1:

Pit shot:

I believe this is Pag and GV:

Pag overtaking me midrace after his pit stop:

And me returning the favor after drafting:

Grayfox and Litchi battling late in the race:

I made the pass on Litchi and Fox to secure 7th position:

Close finish for Grayfox and Litchi!

Congrats to Josh on the win!

 

[cicua]

Nice stuff! 👍

 

[twistedfirework]

nice report and pics DA6.

after doing some practice races last night, we discovered that everyone should spend a little time practicing pitstops. if you enter the pitlane at the wrong angle or too fast, it will give you a drivethrough without new tyres. it could be a race decider!

 

[Josh_F]

I'll be on in about an hour, will anyone be practicing?
