Not many of us but it was still some great racing
Thanks all.
Thanks all.
Yep, thats living on the edge basicallywow that's close!! great fun everyone! onto the next one.
Don’t know if there is a documentation for that but for the brake pads, 1 has the best performance and last one hour races without noticeable fade up to three which have lowest performance but last much longer. 4 is a special case not existing in real life that has best performance but will fade after like 20 minutes (what I heard ppl say, never used them). The engine map is similar, 1 is max performance with highest fuel consumption, higher numbers save fuel on cost of performance. In our one hour races no real point in using something different from 1 as you can’t really postpone or safe any pit stops.Had a great time Battling with you and Andy also.
had a good race and was happy even though I came 5th both times! just need to get more consistent and I should improve!
also need to look at understanding setups a little better as I do nothing except change the Aero and tyre pressures. is there anywhere that explains what all the different things mean i.e. engine modes and brake pads etc.

Brake Pads 4 are great for quali actually, they allow you to brake 10 meters later on most occasions. The chicane after the fast corners (turn 4) I braked even 20 meters later. But indeed after 15-20 mins they are toast, after 10 you'll already notice the braking to start fading.Had a great time Battling with you and Andy also.

I always race with Brake Pads 4. This explains A LOT!But indeed after 15-20 mins they are toast, after 10 you'll already notice the braking to start fading.

On a side note: my head wasn't in it yesterday. I had fiddled all evening to install the Brake Performance Kit on my Fanatec V3 pedals. Pedal feel and seating position just wasn't there anymore. I will need to tweak it some more. Not gonna lie: even though Zolder is my home GP, I've never been competitive at this track.
I will do a couple of 30 minute races with 49 AI on the Mountain to prepare for Sunday's race.
Officially jealous now, still fighting will my good old Thrustmaster pedals and improvised load cell modI fell brakes are the single biggest thing to get used when changing things on your hardware, I had similar feelings when I got the Heusinkveld sprint pedals, but would be lost without them now. Just takes time!
