Unlike some of the other tracks, a lot of Infineon has the barriers pretty close so if you do go off, most of the time that will mean a reset. They certainly do race here in real-life; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GcvrgxkMhHM...and look what happens at T2  iRacing is SO realistic  I remember that race very well, turn 1 incident, the Peneske car going off  Best bit I liked was Justin Wilson correcting the spin at the hairpin of the last corner |

Setups - I'm experimenting with Barber setups atm. I rarely have time to make my own setups, and the Dallara especially is a minefield. Anyway the Barber setups are pretty much full downforce as it is, nothing left in the rear wing. Is there anything else you can do to get more grip, even at the expense of straightline speed, or is it just a case of maybe taking some off the front to avoid any tendancy for the back end to step out?  |

scrub that, managed a 1m22.7 with quali fuel...... it seems rolling round all the slow bits works and patiently getting on the throttle, rather than attacking it

Yes, it sure is a lesson in throttle control. As hard as this combination is, it is an exhilerating experience. |

Update that list! 1:21.2 with full fuel Nice Iain, I did a 21.something with fuel, but that run was ended prematurely when my right front punctured. Undoubtedly due to all my locking, but it's hard not to do that round here, so it doesn't bode well for my race. I didn't quite match Andy on low fuel but I got close, 1:20.1 or thereabouts. |

1:20.8 PB with low-mid 21s consistently. Is it just me, or is the Dallara ultra-sensitive to the tiniest setup change. I was struggling with understeer and lifting through the fast chicane. 1 click of rear rebound and I can take it flat and the car is a whole lot nicer. That was on half-tanks, heaven knows what it will be like when brimmed. |
