Sorry, didn't see any messages on the server I think they might be turned off when I'm in the car. Yeah, there is wheel rate on that suspension screen. figured that was the case. Do you use Stracker? (the app) if so, people can send you setups via that. You just double click the header of the driver table on screen and another screen pops up where it says 'save setup/send setup' and you get it from there. ps if you are setting your brake bias to 75% you are just going to lock up your fronts and flat spot the tyres!...not to mention rear-end someone i only adjust between 68% to 71% (For these cars) depending on track. Aliens may be more extreme

Race day folks looking forward to it. I have a pitiful amount of points after being hit in every race so far I will be most disapointed if there are many contacts on this wide track lets keep it clean and have fun

Maybe I'm doing all wrong, but I used for all races a bias of 75 %.

Ha, considering your pace, maybe i am doing it all wrong ! 75% is quite forward biased is it not? though probably works better for trailbraking.. but can you even do that in a fwd car? (i am a rwd man!).

I prefer rwd cars too. Yes, I move bias in front for trailbraking. I see too much smoke from rear tyres for nothing, better have all weight and brake power on nose and a rear light. I had learn that in real life. When I was 17-18 years old I used a lot the handbrake, but then I have learn that you can entering in oversteering using only the brake pedal, just have a good sensibility. Of course on harpins needs the headbrake :-) I repeat, maybe I'm wrong and it is better have a bias more on rear...

BB 75 in Vallelunga was a bad idea for good lap time. ( see Fabri lap times ) So, practically, BB depends of track profile Silverstone needs more forward BB than Vallelunga

problems logging onto the server as usual. taken me 33 minutes to log on.
takes about 5 mins to log in, then I get random error messages of 'server not available' when I venture out on track or I get out on track and my Logitech G27 is restricted to 360 degrees rotation which I find almost undriveable. can take up to six or seven attempts some times. Does anyone else have this problem?
I am now logged on, but the race has started, if I wait till the first race has finished, will the game let me start the second race?

First race good, no problems racing with MJ, second race shunted off track race ruined, on reversed grids some sort of care should be exercised when one of the slowest drivers finds himself second on the grid. This sort of action tarnishes Wed night racing for me.

Race 2 was bit a bordel. The start was fun, with a good battle with Jef and FMG. Sorry for small contact at first lap, FMG. Then (maybe lap 12) my race went totaly to putains because Alexey pushed me out on braking before chicane. Man, if you are not able to brake side by side it is a problem. We can increase the damage as much as 500% but if you don't know the basics of being for stay on track, the contacts will always happen. I always thought that I would not report any incidents but in this case I will do it. Embarrassing!

Reversing 10 people is very risky IMO as the more you reverse, the bigger the chance of speed difference. Laptimes are very equal in these cars, so reversing 10 is possible, it just adds to the risk of reversed grids. I always thought that I would not report any incidents but in this case I will do it. Embarrassing! You have every right to. I think reports will do more than increasing the damage number. How many people took less risk now that the damage was increased by 10%? My debrief will follow, it was too hectic in race 2
