Don't compare your lap with the server best as that's the Pork - which is faster on the straights. Doing a direct comparison against my GT40 best shows you have the same straight line speed but are both getting worse exits, and carrying less speed through the turns  I've been busy in GPL so haven't been on the server for a few days - has anyone sorted Mike yet? |

I've been playing around. Never set up a car outside of F1GP, Indy 500 and GPL. Soooo many settings. Just done a few laps on the server. Poor ones. |

Am I being thick?
Is it a time limit race or a set number of laps?

i have same tyre pressures and gear ratio. I keep trying different toe and brake bias settings but i'm not going any quicker.  i put a tad more neg camber as tyres weren't showing any inside heat over rest of the tyre. I tried being more aggressive driving style throwing into corners for drifts but i seem to be quicker by being smoother and having less moments. Looking at amount of times on stracker, most take the 908 for an easier drive but i'm sticking with the beast of a GT40. Would like to try a good setup for it if someone wants to share. @miner, stracker is a very useful app to have installed. It gives you a decent leaderboard in the race and allows you to exchange setups in the pit garage or chat etc. |

I've only changed my diff settings for now, I think my lack of speed is driver related, I've not had the game long and have mainly been driving the 98T at various tracks. @miner, stracker is a very useful app to have installed. It gives you a decent leaderboard in the race and allows you to exchange setups in the pit garage or chat etc.
OK thanks. I'll have a look later. For a leaderboard I'll go with a piece of paper with my name at the bottom |

@miner, latest version of the App here:- https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/stracker.3510/it doesnt just act as a leaderboard, it gives gaps + or - to the other drivers and has a fuel counter at top. If someone shares a setup you can double click at the top of the leaderboard and another menu opens up that allows you to grab the setup. |

GT40 hardly has any setup options worth mentioning.
I'm running the shorter gearset, tires aren't 30 all round - but as I drift that's hardly a suprise!
Brake bias is entirely personal, nothing else let is there?

once installed, don't forget to tick it 'on' under your general settings menu. |
