I posted a setup on stracker. It's basically the default setup with the right gearing and tyre pressure and some other tweaks which were basic tweaks based on absolutely no idea

Just been on the server, for some reason I couldn't see your setup Jeff I'm sure when I find it I'll also find the 6 seconds I need to be on the pace

No feeling at all with this car for me. I will try Jeffrey's setup but I guess that I won't find the 3 seconds that separate us. Another difficult season in sight

Just been on the server, for some reason I couldn't see your setup Jeff I send it to myself the first time . It should be there now, but note, it's just a few tweaks here and there and purely the setup I used for my time so far. I'm sure when I find it I'll also find the 6 seconds I need to be on the pace You did a whopping...2 laps Can you please change the welcoming message when you have the time .

Posted a V2 of my setup. Some settings are set to their maximum, more as a test, but I went faster with it, so I stick with it for now

grr, i've hit my glass ceiling at 1:45 no matter what I try setup wise or lines taken I cannot seem to better my time Frustrating. I've watched other drivers doing quick times but cant really see anything that stands out to give them such a time advantage.

I've watched other drivers doing quick times but cant really see anything that stands out to give them such a time advantage. Look at the graph on stracker. You approach T1 at a lower pace, so your exit out of the last corner isn't good and you brake too early and too hard for T1. In general you seem to brake too much and not carry enough speed through the corner. Maybe apply more steering lock and be less smooth . Every time I set my fastest lap, there are people beating it immediatly . Not sure what setup they use, but it would be appreciate to share it amongst eachother

Are you guys dropping to 2nd out of clearways? The car just won't turn in early enough to get on the power, also the problem I have at t1. If I brake late there it just understeers off to the left.

IIRC, I'm in 3rd through clearways and I can't remember the car being low in revs there. Looks like you brake the same as the leadlap, but have a worst exit. Could be setup or maybe keep the car a bit tighter at the beginning of the corner and really straighten the car on the exit. For T1, just let it roll and not brake too much. Slam the brakes and then steer the car with throttle towards the apex.
