We are required to stick with the original tune settings (base camber for your question), excepting the brakes.And I'm still awake
. I'm just going to stick on a pot of coffee so I stay that way. Practising soon đź‘Ť
Quick question. Are we restricted to the base camber option on the SV-R or do we have free choice?
in progress. 
, wouldn`t have changed the outcome though, I was 1 second off the pace and just couldn`t get it any faster without losing control 
. Nice win @danbojte đź‘Ť, and very good comeback @OdeFinn đź‘Ť, hey @ALB123 that was a great race you had, led for quite a long time and held off Dan with that 
. 
? What happened ? Hope it went better in races #2 & 3 
. See you all soon again on the track.
, how did you get it to disappear and pop up all over the track 
, could never tell if you were on the right or left side of the track , I just hope you one day get some proper internet connection đź‘Ť.

Miscalculation or leading jitters Good race guys, but someone owns me a transmission and a few other parts
@Thorin Cain , bad day at the races
@Ridox2JZGTE , that was some special car you had on the track
@Brewguy44 , you have to wake up for the first race dude, I never get to race you
Something funny at times happen with my controls when there are many drivers on track, sometimes the car just overreacted or the brakes becomes too weak 
That wasn't even me who typed to the racing lobby -- well, I typed "gr everyone" or something like that...My brother was here visiting and he watched the race... I was telling him what to type.
Just kidding....I'd race with you ANY time, buddy. đź‘Ť
I had to take my second pit stop. My fuel indicator was flashing red. What I want to know is, how the heck did I lose my 10-12 second lead on the field when we ALL went into the pits on Lap 6, I think it was...I go in with a 10-12 second lead and I exit the pit with @danbojte right on my tail! Then he pits on lap 13 and I stay out there, still running 1:57s to 1:58s and all of a sudden I'm in 3rd place by 8 seconds?! I don't see how that makes any sense.
I should have just pitted on the same lap as danbojte and tried my best to keep him from passing me...but my tires were still good...they were higher numbers than my first pit stop.
The reason I left so abruptly...I had thrown up all over myself on the last straight, right before the final 180 degree turn...I took my medication without eating anything and that happens a lot... I had to run 2 laps covered in it.
Yeah, you should have pitted with danbojte then If you watch the times in the race replay, you will see that danbojte and odefinn were lapping in 1:57s or lower most of the time, they may have gained time from mid race onwards. When you entered the pit in lap 14, both dan and odefinn were already close to last few corners of the lap to pass you. đź‘ŤIt was weird Ridox...When you were following me, during practice, your car looked fine in my rearview mirror. But, once you passed me and your car was in front, it got really sketchy looking.. Like, your car would hop to the left, then to the right...and then the car also looked like it was rotating a bit, or sometimes like you were swinging the wheel back and forth, like racers do to warm their tires, but it wasn't appearing in a smooth manner - if that makes sense. I'm really upset that you can't race with us. Although, with @OdeFinn & @danbojte already wiping the floor with us, do we really need another racer to whoop our butts?
I got several mid 1:55s during practice ( last one was on lap 7 with red fuel and 75% tire ), but it was weird when the room has other drivers, the car was erratic in performance ( braking and steering ), different than when I was alone right after you left last time.
Before danbojte made his second pit stop, he almost did pass me but he backed off at the last second. I can't blame him...it's just a difficult course to pass especially because you don't have the spatial awareness with a video game that you would have in real life.
Otherwise I would go back and re-watch it to see where I am making mistakes. Plus, I like to watch some of the race from my opponents viewpoint.
Good race buddy@Thorin Cain , bad day at the races
Yeah not too good for me Combination of poor driver skill, some really inconsistent results in braking zones and not even having the car built until just before the event. Oh yeah, and being awake for 22 hours 
Mostly the first bit though 
And I remembered to save all the races đź‘Ť Don't know if I want to watch them though I had no problems keeping in the 1:57-8 bracket with that spec. Could hardly keep the other two on the road 
I had to leave when the 2nd race was on and the TV was occupied for viewing I didn't prepare for the Camaro as well
Good race buddy
You did well keeping up with the front runners for a while đź‘Ť
Hope your day at work is a good one my friend, I'm off to bed now
@danbojte, @ALB123 and @OdeFinn it was a pleasure as always having my 🤬 so well and truly spanked
For the record I'd have much rather ran the higher camber on the SV-R. It made a huge world of difference for me in the few practice laps I tried it on
Thanks again for the fun racing session guys
I felt it helped with stability in braking from high speeds, most notable at the Ascari chicane. I could hold corner speed a bit better and felt I had better traction on corner exits
Overall I think it was better suited for my driving đź‘Ť I'll be using that setup a bit more often when I take the Diablo out next time
Yes noticed that, 4/6 was probably best for me, not locking front, and reducing bit engine brake on rear, but needs gentle trail braking in to corner or just doing all braking on straight before entering in turn.Brake balance is crucial to get right for the driver at Monza, I tested 6/6 and it was not as good as 5/6 for me, as I need trail brake deep and rotate the car right at the apex. Timing the braking point is also very important
Yes but the stewards gifted you with 40 push-ups for not complying the rules.I felt it helped with stability in braking from high speeds, most notable at the Ascari chicane. I could hold corner speed a bit better and felt I had better traction on corner exits
The last chicane also can be tricky on entry, early turn in can go over the green and 4 wheel off the tarmac could happen. Once in a while is fine, but if it's happening all the time, then that's illegal/intentional
Oh, OK then, sorry.
Hey, no problemOh, OK then, sorry.
I just fancied trying out the low camber and high camber set-ups while I was there I fully respect the rules and made sure I was back on the right one for race start:tup: 
If you remember those experiments, I always did go a little better with a little more camber than the rest of youI know exactly how you feel @OdeFinn. Trying to get brake balance set properly is literally one of the most important things we can do. I think each and every member of this fan club is capable of winning a race if we drive well. Getting those brakes set properly is critical. I promise you all, when I wrote in here the last couple of days that I was having terrible issues setting my brakes, I was no exaggerating. Even when the race started I was not feeling comfortable with my brake balance at all. Somehow, on either lap one or two I started doing this thing where I was doing short quick pumps of the brakes - not stabbing at the brakes - there was some slowly feathering going on, but it somehow seemed to work for me and I tried my best to keep at it the rest of the race. I really couldn't trailbrake at all. I think I did 96% of my braking pre-turn in. I could have used trail braking more, but during practice I had several spins trail braking so I didn't want to chance it..
@danbojte Was your car based on the Diablo GT2? I thought all of our cars were built on the GT? Your car looked different. I don't think I built one of the GT2 base Diablo SV-R's...but it looks fantastic - unless those are just style changes from the GT6 Parts Shop? Either way...it looked sharp out there!! đź‘Ť
Another question, danbojte... I do agree that we should all be using a minimum amount of camber, whether that minimum is 0.0/0.0 or 2.1/3.0, whatever the Ridox Replica setup calls for...but do you think it would provide any type of competitive advantage to allow a driver to apply MORE camber, like @Thorin Cain would have preferred? In the "Great Camber Experiment", of which some of us Ridox Fan Club members participated, it was pretty well known that Camber is beneficial under some circumstances at lower values (like 1.0 - 2.0). I think camber IS still broken, however, because I don't think it works EXACTLY as it should under ALL circumstances and that sometimes 0.0 WILL be the fastest, highest grip setup. But I do know that certain camber ranges will provide slightly slower lap times but lesser wear on the tires. Anyway, I will always defer to your judgement and decisions when it comes to the rules of our Club Events. I just thought I would ask the question. While I haven't collected any raw data my guess would be: if Thorin Cain ran the higher camber setup on a track like Monza, he would probably experience slightly worse/less grip in straight line acceleration, but better turn in and in his own words, better braking stability. I don't know if he would have had any competitive advantage at all...
I believe it would have made a significant impact over the course of the race if we were allowed to run our preferred amount. Probably wouldn't have changed the outcome as I was driving very badly today, but It could have made a big difference
