I've put a setup in my dropbox if anyone needs one.

Thanks Guybrush! Your setups seems to work well for me... but Mugello is arguably my fav track  ;D

Did you get any quicker I didnt run any more after you left.

Not really, but there is probably a quicker lap in there... somewhere

Thanks for the setup Guybrush. but I need one that goes faster..
My 2.20 is not going to cut it.
But I didn't practice for long... Will be on the track early tonight.

I think I will help you to grip up the track, cant imagine how much fun this combo will be with even less grip.  ;D O found it quite awkward but a bit of a challenge just really seemed to lack grip on both ends hopefuly GB's setup helped but my own setup wasnt going anywhere even though I only ran a handful of laps so will need to run some tonight.

After all its not that important to be too fast round one just fast enough, maybe guy will run his rolling safety car race to keep his laptimes down a bit.

I don't think too much setup is going to help anyone on these limited setup cars. It's time to focus on your driving. Get on the gas as soon as you can! Slow in, get the nose pointed in the right direction, then throttle it up as soon as you can.

Easier said than done Mr Wally!! I seem to get the car that doesn't want to do any of those things!

Yes Wally I think your right as I tried some changes then went back to default and ran the same times. A small mistake in this car is about a second or more as you need to carry speed but a little too much and it will push wide losing all speed down the next straight. Quite a challenge but funny how this car at nords is one of my favourites but at mugello it kind of has corners that really dont suit it too well.

I did try variations in setup and I could make it worse but didnt really find anything that made it much better, will be interested to see what guys setup does. But I think it will be an interesting race as my lap consistancy was a much bigger spread here then in most other cars. Also Im too used to driving this track with gt and open wheelers which makes it feel more awkward. No way to gi flat through 90% of the lap like in a high df car. Also the kerbs can still kill in this car so expect some swear words on ts at times from various people.  :D

Server is up.

I'm trying client updates at 20 Hz, still trying to find the sweet spot for this server. If it causes warping, I'll lower it.
