I've done a quick setup for each car, at Philip Island, they could be more refined over time.
I managed to get the values I was after with what was available, the exception being the XU1 rear (but if you can't change it, you work around it).
Each car definitely has it's own "feel" and needs to be driven accordingly, which is nice.
They are certainly a challenge to drive. ;D

Shifted testing to Willow Springs and noticed something in the Imp.
Crew chief is reporting locking right front while I'm accelerating.
I believe it's when the lifted, inside front re-lands but it gives a noticeable pull when it does.
Not sure if this is intentional or the wheel inertier is a bit high. ???

Bump, see post above.

Dated tomorrow but uploaded today the Valiant gets a lot more camber compensation at the rear. Previously the Hillman received De-Dion rear suspension. And the other two seemed to be quite good out of the box.

First time I've used Camber Extravaganza and noted that as well as giving a delta to 'ideal' camber it can also be used as a guide for rollbar stiffness.
If the outside wheel has gone into positive camber but CC still recommends adding more positive camber then the car has rolled too much and you need to stiffen that end.   :o :o

Just had a look, not a drive, but did the Charger driver always have his leg on the extractors? :o

Just drive the bloody thing.  :D :D :D :P

But I'll look at that, VR losers users love looking around and spotting that kind of thing.  :-*

And it is a bit of poetic license that I have left the engine exposed lest they would be covered with a slab of badly textured aluminium sheeting. (Motherfucking spellcheck tried to correct me on that spelling!)

Looks good for a season Seanus, I would just like to do the 2nd run with the RX7, and then the two with the Radical and I was thinking of one race with the RX7 and Radical together and then we could start the GPL season.

Brabham LODs and default setup done. Final less bugs and collider. see above for today's upload.

Lotus. Final less bugs.
McLaren. Final less bugs.
Eagle. Final less LODs and bugs.

All of the above subject to change.
I tested them pre-this @ Glenford.
All very close except the Lotus around 0.4s down, to be expected given engine capacity.
Setup ranges seem good ie., let me get what I want. 8)
All in all, very enjoyable. 8)

All of the above are the latest I have and may need some QC/Beta testing.
