Title: Re: RRE Season 5 (2018) Race Room Group 5 - Laguna Seca - Apr 12 Post by: picnic on April 12, 2018, 09:21:51 PM +0100 Thanks Riccardo :) Sorry to see you had wheel problems, made my job a little easier though ;)
I have so little idea of setup so I'm still running the default! All I did was take 15 litres of fuel out, and still finished with way too much. Title: Re: RRE Season 5 (2018) Race Room Group 5 - Laguna Seca - Apr 12 Post by: frex on April 13, 2018, 09:41:44 AM +0100 Fun race - poor start and poor first few laps, but fun trying to chase Spanner towards the end.
However, got it all wrong going over the s/f line crest lap 2 and spun under braking, then noticed Matt retired at the same time - I hope that wasn't because of me? Apologies if so. Congrats podium. Title: Re: RRE Season 5 (2018) Race Room Group 5 - Laguna Seca - Apr 12 Post by: phspok on April 13, 2018, 09:57:15 AM +0100 No, I retired because I was stupid enough to change the setup before going to the grid.
Lap 2 start finish, the thing was bouncing off the limiter before I got to the top of the hill I was already a bit off the pace, so no straight line speed was too much of a handicap. Title: Re: RRE Season 5 (2018) Race Room Group 5 - Laguna Seca - Apr 12 Post by: frex on April 13, 2018, 10:00:04 AM +0100 Ah yes, just seen your post above where you mention that. Sorry you had to drop out.
Title: Re: RRE Season 5 (2018) Race Room Group 5 - Laguna Seca - Apr 12 Post by: spanner on April 13, 2018, 12:19:06 PM +0100 Lol I actually love Laguna.
That was tough concentration especially at the end of the race with the tyres going off, having to catch the car a lot more. The cars change quite dramatically with the slightest change for me so took a while to work out what worked better than I had. Took my mid ohio setup as a basis but had to play with the dampers to get the car to turn in more. Not sure what happened early on as the front two were holding each other up and I set a fastest lap! |
