What are you running right now?

It seems I might have to do some updating, I was running 5.9's with 100% tread, but as they have worn I am now running 6.0's. Not to bad, but I like to see that 5 in my times!

But, I would think that with a lower tire pressure you would get more traction, seeing that more of the tread is actually on the track.

I thought the same thing, but I spent a good 45min messing with the settings, and I found that pressure to be the best! I didn't touch the back tire pressure, I might play with that next. I also changed my front damper. 👍

 

[Ryan2]

My lowest is a 6.69.

BTW, I tried it, and my times were higher..

 

[Magic069]

Not bad! What skill level you at?

 

[Ryan2]

14.

EDIT: Oh, just noticed that my treads were in the mid 80's. Oops.

You said you also played with your damper settings..What were they on?

 

[Magic069]

I knew you were going to ask that! Now I have to run a test n' tune. I think I bumped it up to 15. Not to sure, hold on one sec. I have a race pending.

 

[Ryan2]

OK, thanks.

EDIT: How about just posting your whole settings?

 

[Magic069]

Damn was I wrong....

Tire pressure F 36 (5-50)
Tire pressure R 39 (5-50)
Damper F 5 (1-16)
Damper R 13 (1-16)
Camber F 1 (-5 - +5)


Those are my exact settings, and I just ran a 5.962 my fastest time. So I am keeping those settings.

 

[Ryan2]

Nice, thanks a lot.

 

[Magic069]

I think if you soften the tires, you get a better reaction time, but with that pressure, you get a better 1/4 mile. I prefer the better 1/4 mile.

 

[Ryan2]

Totally off topic - Are front lips available for anything?

 

[Magic069]

Not in my exp.

 

[Magic069]

Woohooo! I reached a nw of 5,000,000!

My Best ET is actually a little faster than that, havent gotton around to the "Test n' Tune" lately..

 

[halfracedrift]

Well basically, soft tires are only good for achieving good r/t
but i would set my car up so that it runs a faster 1/4 mile, because r/t is USUALLY boosted by skill

Looking damn good magic.

I just sold my vette and got the integra drag. With $800,000, i am running the same times my $2,000,000 vette would run.

 

[Magic069]

Its an impressive car... I don't think anything can beat it besides the gold member cars.

It would be better if I still had my Drag Car.

 

[halfracedrift]

Er... not really, i think no car can beat it..... think about it..
the saleen sr7 that only the gold members can get run.. 5.5s? you're already running a 5.8, and your skill level can still be boosted up a bit, so you can get some more upgrades
i gues what i'm trying to say is.... the sr7 is a non specialist car, but the DRAG car was set up FOR drag races...

 

[Acid X]

I could be running 5.8's if it werent for that damn bug about switchign tires. Blah.. Either way, im about to get to level 19 and be running somewhere in the 5's.

Whoa. Your car is almost my exact nw!

NW: $2,752,664

 

[Acid X]

You went and got a lvl 10 alarm though, thats why your car value is so high. I only got stage 1.

 

[StevieMo]

Haha.. some fool just lost his $865,000 Integra to me. Funny thing is he was the one that challenged me.

 

[halfracedrift]

Alarm's make ur nw go up that much? whoa
