You gotta add Stage 3 Turbo's ... as I said I have to redo the OP ... I'm helping Dave out on this one, so I just do what I'm told :lol:
 
Good racing today guys :)

But should there not have been a 3rd heat ? Or was it because the 2nd heat took so long to begin hehe

Apologies for confusion at the formation lap, i didnt realise we were lining up in revese order from the 1st race!
 
Sorry guys, first round was a bit of a screw up ... it'll come right ... no heat 3 cause heat 2 took so long and I had another series straight after ...

Dave, we need to talk about this series ...
 
Think this series is really fun. Although some big time gaps! In my case it will be down to being pretty useless lol! However if anybody has any tuning advice I'd appreciate it.

Based on tonight the only issue for me personally going forward is the length of time the event takes, especially on a Saturday night.
 
Its all trial and error guys, sorry for any issues that took place, I have to talk to niz and see how things went,

Any issues you guys had please let us know, also suggestions and positive input to help us improve the series is also welcome,

The OP needs to be updated, as there was some confusion about the BHP limit, the room was set to 226BHP as it could not be set to 220BHP. And also add the turbo for installed parts allowed.

Also in both Heat 1 & 2 some drivers hit eachother during the fornation lap, which meant they drove the race with damage on the tires, etc... This also meant that Heat 3 was cancelled, due to 2 restarts :(

Nevertheless it was good to see 10 drivers for the races, and hopefully we could be even more next week :)
 
Ye, I need to update the OP when I can get to a PC ... it was good seeing 10 slots on the grid, but I do suggest we change it to just 2 Heats ... got some Stewarding to do, but overall it was close, fun racing ...
Thanks to all that showed up 👍 ... hopefully next week will be fuller ...
 
Noted mate, next race the damage will be set to low, the bhp limit will be 226bhp, there won't be any formation laps, and there will only be 2 races, a 5 lap sprint and a 10 lap 1 pitstop feature, the GT standing start procedure will be used and so will the GT reverse grid system,

I do hope there isn't any other negatives to take away from round 1, also I hope everyone had a good time and didn't find things too difficult, its good to see ten people showed up,

Sounds good, i really like this car, specially on the gear changes :)

Any progress on the table standings ?
 
I can handle the car, I just need a better tune. I barely put anything into the 500 I was driving yesterday. You and Jammy were gone.
 
is there any specific area you need help with or just an overall setup for you to work from?
 
Mostly an overall setup, my acceleration is slow and I'm not sure if I'm turning like the others.
 
I will givve you a new setup during the week mate, for now its bed time lol
 
This was my setup
RH -5 -10
Springs 8.0 7.5
Ext damp 5 5
Comp damp 5 5
Anti-roll 2 2
Camber 2.0 0.8
Toe 0.00 -0.10
LSD 8 / 20 / 12
Aero 0 20
BB 3 8
Trans
4.215
3.253
2.528
2.092
1.760
Final 2.178
Max speed 140/211 (km/h)

I think that my long 1st gear is for reason my slow start - have to think my transmisson over and may be little change.

Edit: this is online setup and work for my driving style :)

Does that mean that the Full Race Transmission is also on the approved upgrades list ? Also the adjustable LSD .... is it also approved ?
 
The Fiat has to be upgraded to the max, then detuned to 220hp ...

I don't want to appear to be too ignorant but that doesn't answer my question ? Upgraded transmission and adjustable LSD are not on the approved upgrades list so I thought I'd ask :)

The OP might not be fully updated; the upgrades list is:

-EVERYTHING money can buy, that you want on your car. I don't care if you buy dirt tires. :lol: Anything's allowed.
