This is my home track. Just around the corner.
So i should be a natural at this track. I can sense a podium.....


If about 20 of you don't show up.
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?
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...

Im not an Alfa driver and didnt really want to help them out but have realized there is no hope anyway.  ;) Here is a setup I made for Barbagallo only ran a few laps but it did feel fairly nice and was quicker then other times on RSR atm or at least was yesterday.

Time was a 59.352

OK, I'll put you in the Merc.

If you guys would like my set up I would be more than happy to pass it on its a tricky car to set up initally but once you have the basic set up each round just needs a tweak.

Hey do we have tracker stats running for the practice server?

I wouldn't mind seeing how we all fair over the weekend...

Or at least how I fair against the lot of you...  :P

Done a few laps this morning tuning the Merc, I did 5 laps and the mediums seems to be more happy here.
Will have to test 15 laps in anger and see how they hold up.

Brilliant little track, I think we might have some good battles with so many on the track racing  ;D

It's supposed to be, but I think the server's been a bit flaky and might need a reboot.

This link should show you all the practice server stats.

You can get thisningame too if running ptracker by double clicking the small app and opening the large window. To gonback to the small app just click the top left of the bigger ptracker window.

Would be really good to see what difference it makes. I think it's mostly driver ability though.

Yeah, over the years I don't feel like I've really benefited a great deal from other people's setups. You're better off getting a basically good setup for you and then learning to drive to that setup.

Could always ask someone what to change to make the car do what you want it to.

I want to know what to change to make it go faster than yours.
