Downforce, the short tails have it by the tonne  Provided you're going fast enough the toe simply isn't an issue. At low speeds it'll be lethal |

At low speeds it'll be lethal I've been playing with ride height a lot and in theory I get the most downforce at the front with 0-20 height, but I can't keep my eye on the app to see if it stalls at some point  |

What App? I've been after a live suspension app for a while - A downforce might be handy for these though.. I tried the toe out suggestion but also can't get it to work, I've tried my own approach and am pretty confident with the result given my practice race this time is overcast and colder than the server  I won't get a chance to spend more than a few minutes on the server before Weds now as I have a 55F1 race at the ring tomorrow - That's going to need all the practice I can get after work! |

Wing app and telemetry app with the suspension forces showing. Both are under dev apps. |

Is it too much if I ask you to pospone the qualif. at 20.30 UK for tomorrow's race?
I would like to join the race after the football match, even if sweated and malodorous, but the only chance for me to join would be that of postponing the qualif.start. at 20.30, so I would have 15 minutes more to come back home and prepare my seat in few mins.
If for someone that time change is a problem, just ignore my request. I don't want to create chaos only for a problem that depends only by me.
See you

I'd rather leave it as it is, as there will always be people who prefer a certain starting time . |

I want to put my apologies for today, I did a big mistake at start, cold tyers, cold brakes, I blocked my wheel to avoid a puggling, car hit the wall and rebounded on track, hit Mark and Coelamor. Sorry again guys, I ruined your races.
I accept any further decision by Race mods.

You didn't spoil my race PorcoRosso, I managed to do that for myself.
My race started bad, was good in the middle and ended bad.
At the first corner I had a head on crash with PorcoRosso who had obviously left something on the start line and was going back to get it.
Then I spent the whole race chasing Mark J, who slowly edged away from me. PorcoRosso started closing the gap behind at one point but I was able to maintain a reasonable gap.
And then sitting nicely in 10th position with one and a bit laps to go, I ran out of petrol and coasted across the line, losing 3 places. Schoolboy error on my part not to put quite enough petrol in.
Congrates to the podium finishes. I am still loving this car on these tracks.

It was unfortunate Porco but no big deal on the whole, you had no idea I had gone behind you to avoid your melee. Mixed evening for me as I just couldn't improve my times to get into the 16's in qually and hardly 17's in the race but had a great race for 9th with Alexey that lasted nearly the whole race But for small margins I may have finished ahead but still would not have got higher than 9th. I made a very late decision to race with hards but it meant I had at least two tyres under pressured and they just could not get into the perfect temperature range  The tangle with Porco probably cost me about 3-5 secs but I was happier as it panned out, as it meant I had the superb chase with Alexey. I think we crossed the line only tenths apart it felt superb to be racing someone evenly matched so hard in these cars and I felt 'in the car' in places  I just wish mediums would last longer! Did anyone use them in the race? Grid looked fab as always and congrats to the guys up front, great pace  |
