I'm with Alexey.  If anyone has some good setups for the Lotus 25 they are willing to share, it would be much appreciated.

I probably have a decent setup from the season we raced with these not so long ago, but probably better to get one off fmg or Matteo who have a handle on setting up these old cars  Undecided

Finding time to practise for this is the tricky bit for me with a gt3 race Sunday night and a f599 race weds eve as well as MotoGP and f1 to watch this weekend!  Shocked wife will be happy  laugh

Chris, Porko and Felix were the fast boys in the Lotus champ. So far I've done a couple of laps using an unmodified setup from an earlier round. As you can see on the lap time link its currently rubbish  Grin

The most important thing for setup is to increase the tyres pressure, the default value is totally wrong. I used 38 psi.
For the rest I think that the differential is the car's soul and that it greatly affects on handling. My "default" differential was 60-35.

In any case, for go fast, the most important thing is to understand how to drive these cars. As said several times by Chris, these cars need slide, when she starts to slide is not yet at the limit, you can push much more.

The reality is that I understood why I was 4 seconds slower just because Fabri or the old Porko Cheesy told me to increase the default pressure to 37 or 38 psi.
Unfortunately I never had a setup from Gavino on this car, so it's better if you rely on what you read on this topic by the other guys. As Fabri pointed out, differential set is really important, but depends a lot on how you use the right foot and by your driving skill. Brake bias is also very important. I understood how to drive that car in a proper way only at the Nordschleife in an epic final lap with Chris R. A bit too late than usual Wink

Looks like the server will just be password protected, so no entry list, which means you can join whenever Smiley.
