Can you point me towards the guide? I seem to suck at setup adjustments for RACE 07.

Not this one is it?

I'll have to give that a try myself.

Shark, if you want a 350Z setup for Interlagos I've got one I can send you.

I saw alot of oversteering F3000 last night. Normally I am the one that oversteers alot, but this time I made a setup from scratch using the R2Play setupguide. And it was very stable and pretty quick, so if anyone wants to try it out give me a shout Smiley. It's a tweaked default, and not super different, but better turn in with stability.

That's really decent of you Jeff, I'd love to try the set-up Smiley

I made some small changes to the default set-up and it felt pretty stable, where it went wrong for me was if I got the wheel too far onto the kerb it just sent the back end flying out.

I found I was able to catch any 'proper' oversteer (i mean by me being too enthusiastic on the go-faster pedal out of a corner) pretty easily after a bit of practice.

According to the sector times you were incredibly quick through sector 3, I was able to stay within a second of your time through the first 2 sectors then you just exploded. I suspect the uphill chicane was where you were really a lot faster, I can never get that damn corner right in any car Sad

No thanks. I've given up on the 350Z as a bad egg. Smiley

Yeah me too. Was losing a lot in the braking for the final corner too as I couldn't brake hard without spinning there.

Yup, that's the one, thanks Tib.

I have the same, maybe not as bad, but it's hard to remove it completely. Best thing is to not take too much curb, not needed at Valencia.

According to the sector times you were incredibly quick through sector 3, I was able to stay within a second of your time through the first 2 sectors then you just exploded. I suspect the uphill chicane was where you were really a lot faster, I can never get that damn corner right in any car Sad

Could be the uphill chicane, but I think it's more the last corner. I take the chicane in 4th and I'm on the throttle during the chicane, to keep weight on the rears.

The last corner is much more important, due to the straight afterwards. I use 50:50 brake bias (was on 47:53, but that makes the rears work too hard), which means you have to blip to keep the rear stable. I rarely suffer from a dancing ass under braking (manual clutch, blipping) so I can always have bias alot to the rear, giving good balance between front and rear brakepower.
I approach the last corner in 5th (not 6th as it will cost you an extra downshift) and I brake just before you go over the hill. Hard to explain, but the tarmac gets dark, and a few metres before you go down I brake. I do that there as the car gets compressed and you can brake really hard, so be carefull when you go over the hill, as it's easy to lock up then. Shortly lift off the brake a bit and when the car "lands" again brake hard again and immediatly steer in to the apex. Really important to get a good exit here, as a small error will cost you tenths on the straight.

Here is the setup. Depending on your wheel rotation, change steering lock. I run 400 on my G25 and 23 ingame. That way I can use alot of lock when needed (hairpins etc) but also be precise in other corners. It's always good to have a reserve at your disposal, that's why I always run 100% brakestrength.

Did anyone load the Simbin one? (not the default). It worked fine for me. Sorry to miss the race - I know my wife wishes I'd raced instead of moaning all the way through the match  taz censored  Grin

Yes I used that and tried to make some adjustments. It had horrible understeer and snap oversteer braking. laugh

Too much rear brake bias?
