For sure. I just tweaked mine a bit to give it less under steer,
and it seems that with the tire pressures that low they fall off
quickly. I upped them into the 22's and 23's and ran a full
stint. Was doing 1:37's in the first half of the stint, 1:38's
and 1:39's in second half (in traffic).

i was about half a second faster with it right from the start.
im we can keep the 38-39's in traffic and keep it on the track,
should make for a good fight for a podium

Judging from the Roar, staying below 40's will guarantee podium,
doing 37-38 will probably get you a win.

That's good news and nice work on the setups guys. I think I've
emailed the sets to everyone and I think Eric did also. Let me
know if anyone is missing the setup.
I'll be trying them out today.
The new repair system sounds awesome and it's what I was hopping
for, however, I still believe we should still drive as if we'll
get a DNF for damage because if we can avoid 30-45 minute pit
stops = a very good chance of winning.
A car can do a lot of laps in 30 minutes... ;)
And we'll have more drivers in this race pushing harder, meaning
a lot more incidents.

Tried Eric and Sergei's set, like them both, haven't tried
Bills, will test more tomorrow.
Let's aim to decide on a set for tomorrow night EST, that way
everyone can simply concentrate on doing laps before the big
race! :)
Great job on the setps guys, great work!!

Ok, tried Sergey's set and it runs well.
My suggestions:
1. Take front toe to -3 to balance front to rear pressures.
2. Tweak front and rear ARB to as low + preload as possible
(leave a point or two in rear).
Run 5 laps and look at in-car tire pressures.
3. Tweak tire pressures around that 23psi range to get pressures
equal at 5 laps
4. Tweak ride heights to ~1.220 front, ~1.380 rear
5. Go back and tweak front and rear ARB as low+ preload as
possible (leave a point or two in rear)
6. Verify ride heights.
Run 5 laps and look at in-car pressures.
Lather, rinse repeat.
If fronts are running significantly hotter than rears, take out
another degree of front toe.
My final cold tire pressures were:
23 22.5
23.5 23
My only issue with the setup is that I have snap oversteered it
in Turn 1 a couple of times. But an adjustment to the line
fixed that.

lol, it seems like every time I give you guys a set, I get
feedback and tweak it and go faster lol.
So I tried your tire pressures and found that froght-right was
overheating and I was having an unstable car.
I took front right up to 23.5 and that fixed it. I took toe-in
to -3. Couldn't quite put front ride height to 1.220 but I got
as close as I could with that setup. Did not change anything
else. Seems like my rear ride height can't drop below like 2.4
or something like that so I didn't touch that.
Ran full stint, fastest lap was 1:56.9 on full load, throughout
the stint stayed in 1:37's and 1:38's in traffic. It is my final
setup, I will be emailing it to you and will try to fraps my
latest practice stint and put it on YouTube for you guys.
Oh, and by the way, that setup is very light on tires. Tires
were still mostly in the 90% range when I was done with it. I
rarely locked up, rarely breaked too deep into a corner and
rarely had to save a spin. Minimal off-tracks at bus stop but
that's expected from me lol.

I can run it, and it does appear good to be good on tires. Well
done with it.
(I think the car became unstable because you didn't de-tension
the ARB's front and rear, and just putting those pressures in
without resetting the ARB's will 'pick up' one corner of the car
due to the induced extra twist - but it becomes irrelevant in
that the setup as is works pretty well).
