S6R6: BARBAGALLO Pre-Race Chat
« on: April 28, 2015, 11:27:00 PM »
Yes, I'm switching from Pukekohe to Barbagallo. Pukekohe only has 21 pit boxes. I was gambling on numbers dropping off by the end of the season, but we have a full grid. In fact, with Barbagallo having 30 pit boxes, we can fit everyone in.

3 x 15 lap races.

Would be nice to get a large grid here, this will be a busy track but probably one of the best mod tracks I think. Being such a short lap the Alfas may be lapping us around here.  ;D

Wise choice I just ran some laps and even though the 458 is great fun around here its 2.3 seconds a lap slower over a 1 minute lap.

Was on the practice server with Krahl and we were very close in the 458 and KTM with me edging him by .04 I think, I ran some laps in the Alfa which is great fun here too but so much grip in comparison the others wont stand a chance again.

Head out on the weekend and 'walk the track' to get an 'edge' on the rest!

I have looked at the listing of GB's setups but there isn't one for the Alfa, could some one point me in the right direction or attach on here pls?

This weekend might not be a good idea. I'll get skittled by a bunch of angry V8s

No setup has been shared for the Alfa. I'm just running default and play with the tire pressures, brake bias and aero a bit. I'm not quick but about where I would expect to be relative to Jeremy and Perch ie about a couple of seconds off their pace. Biggest issue with the Alfa is getting the brake balance right - some tracks it has been good others have been terrible. Getting the frontend to turn in is also a challenge but I have finally found that slow in and hit the power very early works due to 4 wheel drive.

There! Some advice from someone who got 6 point last Tuesday...
