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!

Just keep practising

Louise Lake....
 

Lake Louise, Nordschleife and a run up the transfagarasan wouod make for an interesting season. Just need the Isle of man circuit and Targa Floria to come for a proper season in the robbins. 

The one lap enduro season?

sounds good

eh, 28 on the list, but every week there are more and more that don't turn up.  It's like that every time.
And you don't want 5 to go missing from a field of 15...
Plus mid-week quali is extra hassle - besides it only separates those with time from those who've no time, really. (with the mixed cars)

For these reasons, I'd not start a new field with half, rather run a smaller race with those above a certain (full field) number - which can be fairly low indeed, if we put Vallelunga on. 

I'd rather run with the more dedicated, stable members, who can turn up every week, to be honest.

my 2c anyway

So why not Vallelunga?  It's a tad less twisty than Magione...I'd say a bit more entertaining, too.

I was on softs...maybe a bad idea?

I just tried again and did pretty much the same time, I tried softs but they were shot less then half way up even mediums I am finishing with 97% at the rear. No idea how you get softs to last in the DTM for that long and still get any speed up the last part of the run. I tried hards but was about 10 seconds slower then on the mediums.

I dunno.  I can imagine a few things;
- I can gain a lot of speed early on with the softs, or
- I'm not driving the wheels off, and they last
- and/or possibly my driving style is very different from yours...

I'll try the mediums if I get a chance.  I've tried hards, but same as you, I was significantly slower.

It seems for people that have the cpu issues its more related to number of cars and not ingame settings. Ingame settings would effect fps but its possible to have cpu warning with no fps issues. Try 30 AI with collisions on at nords any graphic settings and you get to play it in slow motion. The game will run very slowly but my fps is the same as always. Its just rather strange and as we know by the italian error code for wrong password. What it says on screen is not likely the actual error, just a cryptic clue.

In this case it maybe correct....fps is largely dependent on GPU, but the simulation can still run at a lower rate - that can easily be CPU dependent.
