I think both striker and livos ideas seem interesting and could
be what this league needs. As you can all probably tell I have
lost my interest in this game. I do very little or no practice
between races and I am a very long way off the pace as a result.
I am trying to stick with it though so I'll do my best.
Must be the way I'm driving rather than setup though as I know
some of you guys have kindly lent me your setups and I don't
seem to go any better. I always wonder if we went back to f12010
if I would still be so far off the pace? Maybe maybe not but
what I do know is with each new game and as time goes by I get
slower and slower haha. Maybe I'm just to old for this racing
game stuff!

Hey guys and good thread.
I have noticed there's a lack of pace from some drivers here but
practice wouldn't hurt, with practice ull find the right physics
of the car and less understeer.
I use to do some changes with my set-ups but found out that
there one setup that works for every single track.
First of all is 1-1 for aero, gives maximum straight line speed
with no lose in cornering, some ppl say that front aero tweak
will improve but not true not even in quali.
Brakes I'm using 48%52 high standard, if u can manage ur brakes
this its the perfect brake setup but if ur locking up try medium
pressure. And if u a g27 user and use the clutch for braking,
try to disassemble the pedals replace the brake springs with the
clutch springs and ull find out that u can manage ur braking
lightly and better. I have done that and have no problems with
my braking, look for videos on YouTube how to assemble the
pedals and be carefull.
For balance use more front arb 3 and up and 11 rear arb, the
softer the front arb the better for the car to roll arround
comers but will lose time on high speed corners, the more front
arb the better for high speeds but be carefull not to go too
high or ull lose lots of grip, I find 6 to be best of both.
Suspension 1.1.11.11 u won't find anything better, some say
softer front or rear springs is better but not true and
definitely not the best to drive.
Gears check where ur highest speed lets say 325 and have all the
gears straight up aligned with ur 7th gear, lower gears won't
give u faster acceleration and its been proven in the game by
very experienced drivers. In spa for example my gear are all all
the way to the right.
The alignment is camber to the left and toe to the right.
I've found lots of speed with this setup like:
Online
Brazil:1.9.3 (could be better)
Melbourne: flat 33 and possible in the 32
Spa: 44.7
USA:35.9 managed today
Canada:mid 1:11
UAE: 1:38
Try to lose understeer when u practice. Try to avoid gravel on
the track. Tight corners and u can find them on high speed
corners, they really affect ur time sometimes a full second in
just one corner.

Something else guys is wheel setting very important
Have saturation very high from 61 to 70 and linearity from 20 to
40 will help with straight lines and less understeer

I agreed to moss that setup is fast and works for most of tracks
but if you have no practice in some tracks using balance 1 11
and susp 1 1 11 11 and hit the kerbs, you will lose grip!

Thanks fella's, all your information has been a great help, just
a matter of practising and finding the right braking points and
like Andrew said, keeping it smooth and mistake free.
From all the comments on set ups, it seems there is almost one
default set up for all tracks with maybe a tweak here or there
for personal preference.
Thanks again fella's, Cheers. ;D ;D ;D

Question for Moss.
What do you change when the race is FULL WET or LIGHT RAIN?
How much do you drop your gearbox if any?
Thanks

U can change ur gear box to lower ratio, but too low is not
necessary.
And all u have to change is ur brakes to medium or low pressure,
and that's it.
