I run in VR and although it's very emersive the picture quality could be better, and I can't run virtual mirror in VR.Side mirrors in AC aren't the best either, and you can't adjust them. When someone is around either rear quarter panel I virtuallylose total sight of them. I probably moved over a bit to see if I could catch sight of you and bang!! Totally my fault, and I hate to ruinanybody's race. I can assure you it certainly wasn't on purpose mate, wouldn't do that to anyone. 67 yrs old here mate Cheers mate Dave O. Logged NEVER TOO OLD TO RACE ... being competitive can be a PROBLEM though.

Car was a bit average all race and i was hoping once i put the softs on in the final 20mins the car would come alive but it was the exact opposite being a absolute handful lol it was probably the worst car i have driven so unpredictable, on the softs i had a couple moments, 1 on my outlap at highspeed turn in and another on the 2nd last lap again through a high speed turn, the car would just snap like it had no wing was really weird so obviously something was wrong with my set for the race which is odd as it felt okish in prac, not sure how the other toyota boys found the car especially on the softs?. Anyway 4th was ok considering so we shall look forward to some of the up coming twisty tracks Logged do you even motorsports? rexology Newbie Posts: 15 Karma: 0 Re: S19R3: Le Mans Post-Race Chat « Reply #18 on: November 01, 2017, 06:49:42 PM » Quote from: Dave O on November 01, 2017, 05:09:56 PMThanks rexology...

Anyway 4th was ok considering so we shall look forward to some of the up coming twisty tracks Found that I could not use the setup for medium tires with softs, it felt like the stearing inputs were exaggerated with the car wanting to swap ends at every corner. But with a modified setup the softs was definitely faster and the effect of tire wear on laptimes were limited. In fact I did my fastest lap on the last lap of the race with worn tires.

It's as if the default set up is already finely balanced.
