I havent ran any laps in the combo yet but going by the race at pauo ricard in these a couple weeks ago. Theres not a great deal that you can do in this car setup wise for such a track. What are you mostly having trouble with?

I'm away in Melbourne, so not likely.

Just fired AC up for a decent run for the first time in over a week.  The changes to the bottoming out are much better - it now feels more organic and real with having to change the springs, ride height, etc. to clear the curbs and bumps.  Although there are still a few "WTF happened there!" moments over some of the curbs.

I've put a setup for this combo in my dropbox if anyone wants to try.  It seems fairly manageable to me.  Still haven't managed a clean time though.

What are you mostly having trouble with?

I was having real problems getting the power down out of corners, however I will no longer be able to race tonight as the Australia vs UAE semi final starts @ 8pm and is set to finish about 10.

So I don't think i'll be getting any points today, but if anybody wants to sub in and earn some points for me?  :D
