" I just think if you move people down when they are just at the front of the pack time wise it just means next round they will be further off the pace"
No, it gets them closer to the average time across the field, which is always the goal - to compress then field. Faster guys get slower cars.
To get the entire field of 20 guys of very different speeds to within 4 seconds over a nearly 2 minute lap shows the system is working.
I do agree though that just using the fastest time is probably a better indication of their pace. It would only make some subtle differences, but I'll give it a go.
What does "other" mean? Do I sit out next week? :'(
I think it has to be the middle ground, or the average time, because you just get bitten by the same problem at the other end. You can't make the guys in the fastest cars any faster. You're ultimately hamstrung at both ends, without the flexibility of ballast. So long as guys can have close racing with at least someone, that's the main thing.So now I'm confused. Are we sticking with the original choice of car or the amended (red ones).
Can you guys stop discussing the handicapping! Last time I ended up getting a slower car!That's their aim, haven't you noticed? ;)

Not happy til Gratulin gets a Robbin. ;D
Where you 10th again last round? With 20 odd starters each round you do seem to like being mr Average Gratulin. ;DI think 11th and 12th - very average indeed.
What's your tyre pressure difference between laps 2 & 3?
Maybe not optimal grip but better pressure?
I tried the GTC with Marty's set and it almost rattled my teeth out. P4/5 is not like that at all.

I think youd need to soften the gtc setup from my Monza set, the GX I have had to soften a bit too. When you go into another gt car from the evora though they all feel like boats. ;D
I havent ran much on the softs in the GX but guy was rather quick in a few laps lat nite. He has an interesting strategy for the 8 lapper, runs softs for 5 or 6 laps then as they go off will take out the field at the chicane. I wamted to see how kuch he lost on the last 2 laps but he just wouldnt run that long.

It wasn't the tyres that were the issue, more so the boredom/interest levels. I mean who can do more than 6 laps without giving in to the infamous superman jump; aiming to go inverted over the top of another car while giving them the bird - Top Gun style.
I think my best is a 1.57.1 atm. There is another couple of tenths in that though.
I'm vaguely 59 in the Merc with full tank and hards, on a good lap.

Wally could you find anyway to make yourself appear slower, Full tank + Hards means low fuel and softs would be about 4 seconds faster. That would make laps around 1:55 ;)
I gave up making my own setup, I was completely lost and well behind Guy, tried his and after a few laps got quite a bit closer. Still a long way off Wally's pace as I can do 1:57.2 but full tank and hards I wouldn't get anywhere near sub 2 min.
I gave up making my own setup, I was completely lost and well behind Guy,Its a bit of a black art. I find in AC its a lot more tricky to get right than say Rfactor when I used to apply similar things to get a result.

I often surprise myself in AC when a certain tweak suddenly gets a good gain.....
I just saw on the all-time stats that we are equal on race wins Marty with 12 a piece... I may or may not have put up a "dummy" setup :p
Actually your overall score is better than mine in the all-time stats, so I have some catching up to do!
Freezer, have you managed any laps in the P4/5 yet? What times are you getting? I'm not breaking 2:00 and mostly doing 2:02s in race trim. Everyone else that I can see times for are doing 1:59s easily in race trim and 1:57s PBs even in slower cars. Stan Daam is doing those times in the MP4 which I got kicked out of because of Marty. I tried the MP4 and I was a bit faster in that in just a couple of laps. So sort of hoping it is the P4/5 but probably me being slow around here?

So sort of hoping it is the P4/5 but probably me being slow around here?I need to do a bit more practice yet, but I have dropped into the low 1.59s. Likely to get a little bit quicker but not a whole heap. Trying to work out hi versus low down force options....!! Monza went well with low down force and soft suspension to maintain some mechanical grip . . so that might be the way.
This track is much more twisty - while it has two straights that can use the speed, it's much MUCH slower track (check the distance/laptime values, it gives you the 'speed' of the track, that's really an average speed / lap )Freezer, have you managed any laps in the P4/5 yet?

I reckon quite a bit more wing is needed. It's also better for a safer setup to have more wing.
