Redbull X2010 Goodwood

[Fast_Family]

Previous events I've mange all gold, it was not so hard but this one, I can't get out of the first corner!! What's you're sensitivity on the ds3 for this event b'coz, it's hard to handle such downforce here not to mention driving for the gold!

Any suggestion?

I put the sensitivity down to -2 for this one (I usually have it at 7). I think it took me about 10 minutes to do, including 3 runs of hitting the wall exiting the last corner. To start with I ran really slowly just to complete the track, get a time and a ghost....then I focused on each corner, mainly turn 1 and turn 4 (bottom of the hill) and just increased my speed each time till I found the limit then work on the next one and so on. It does require quick reflexes and you need to be relaxed. Do you use manual gears? If so, then switch to auto. Try changing your view to bumper cam if you don't use it as it helped some people. Beyond that, look in the video section for videos to watch to know rough corner speeds. Ultimately, just aim to finish the run without worrying about the time and then just focus on beating that ghost slightly each time and you will soon find you have the gold time

Thnx very much. Even tho I'm on -2 sometimes when I hit the corner tha car just continues to tha grass or to the wall! But I'll see what I can do, it's the hardes event so far tho!

Yeah, I almost didn't do it as I suck in the X cars but I did it after doing about 8 or 9 of the Goodwood ones in a row so I was used to the course. Having it at -2 does mean that you have to really push the stick left and right quite hard but it is doable....if you are finding that it doesn't turn quick enough for you then either increase the sensitivity slightly or just start turning into the corner slightly earlier. It's easy for me to sit here having done it and say it just takes practice but it does...my first couple of runs at high speed and I couldn't get past turn 1..once I cleared that, I was able to progress.

As I said, just focus on one corner at a time, work out your speed through it, keep repeating it and then move on to the next corner. I would definitely recommend looking at videos of it in the video section...I used them as a guide to know what speeds I needed through the corners and then just aimed slightly lower. Overall, the run doesn't need to be perfect...after the left hander at the bottom of the hill I had 3/4 of the car on the grass but managed to coax it back on track...just be as smooth as you can

Edit: Try this video..it's someone using a DS3 to show you how unperfect it needs to be. I would suggest focusing on the corner speeds:

Thx bro. I'll try it latter b'coz I can't now. Much appreciate!

I love racing the red bull cars. I use sensitivity on 7. I was advised it when i was trying to get the golds on the vettel challenge on gt5, and found it better. For the red bulls i would advise having this set up, (if you would like to try something different)

Also, traction to zero, abs set on 1 and SRF on, active steering off, and stability manager on. Will probably help you on there.

I find the key on this track is to accelerate then take your finger off, brake semi-hard..roll around the corners then put your foot down again, as it is a very narrow track.
