Then back for one, then miss another two Next 2 after this, or Salzburgring and next one? Please let me know in each thread, that way I can see more clearly and I can remove you from the list for the set race and put you back when you can make it.

I would like to know why this car hates me. Yesterday I even managed to replace my old H shifter with another functioning from my friend. Do You really want to know which is the difference between paddles and H shifter chaps? I'll leave it to your imagination

Finally, the enlightenment. Thanks for the tip about the tyre pressure chaps. I stiffened sensibly the rear anti roll bar and springs, and softened a bit front springs and anti-roll bar. Tweaked the differential power to 80%, coast at 50, and preload at 30. Modified the delta between the ride heights with an higher rear to have less understeer when turning in and at mid corner. Increase the negative camber seemed to be helpful aswell. A special thanks goes to Kunos' default setup, really 'helpful'

Me and my friends noticed that the first chicane could be cut easily, especially the second curb that can literally jumped without any penalities. That could give many pilots advantages, because with a springs soft, the chicane could be +10Km/h faster

The track is really beautiful and exciting, i really like it; but we have a problem: the chicane.
Trying a little yesterday, me and Thomas, we realized that we lost more than half second in t1, and instead we were fast enough in t2 and t3. We studied telemetry, along with PorcoRosso. We noticed that to do the t1 fast we had to make the chicane to 100 km/h (instead of our 80). You have to cut it completly.
PorcoRosso tried to make a nice cut, and here's the best time! :-)

Yes, i tried it out very quickly and found that its easily cut with no oenalties..
We can monitor that chicane on the replay, anyone who has wheels going through the barrels can get +1 second added on each time they cut (could be a pita to monitor and keep track off)
Alternatively we just alter the track. Croft is very good now feels3's version has been released.. but im unsure of the car count.

I can't make it this race, so I'll study the replay afterwards. I trust nobody will try and take advantage of it, but if they do, note that the official penalties are as following: Repeated Railriding or Corner CuttingPenalty to be adjusted according to the following guidelines. Specific occurrences may be disregarded if there are mitigating circumstances.
Blatant and deliberate Exclusion with penalty Repeated but accidental 30 seconds with warning Occaisional (3 or more) but accidental 10 seconds with caution Rare (less than 3) and accidental cautionWhich is why I really ask somebody to provde me with a replay afterwards. I will specify with screenshots later tonight what will be considered cutting.
