Hey guys I'm going to be racing in this one. It's been a while since I've done any racing so any setups or tips would be appreciated

I know you're struggling just now - but if you find this race a bit of 'the deep end' then also consider joining us for the fun races on Wednesday nights - (see other threads for details...)

Dont try to set car too low they dont like it . lowest you can go 7-7.5 f 8-8.5 r , tyres lowest pressure , brakes are a big issue with locking drop brkae pressure to 58 -60 , springs softish same with roll bars .
Do all hard acceleration and braking in striaght lines only

Thanks for the setup Dave it's much better than anything I came up with

Good luck!

Please see pictures and instructions on how to start your timing lap without having to do a full warm up lap.--> http://HERE
In qualify, please wait for everyone to finish their laps before chatting. It's a long track, drivers could be still finishing their lap for another 10 minutes after the clock has hit zero. Please check that there is a P next to each persons name before chatting.
You are all a guinea pigs trying out my updated track 2.40, let me know if you find any bugs in the event. Tell me if I was successful with fixing a pit sharing issue I had with old version. If all ok, I will update my links over at my S397 thread.
Have nice race all.

Please Mr. Dan Bayford, please come forward and explain your self
I'm just wondering if a few cones will do it, or do we need a full on tyre wall?
