AC GT3 @ Paul Ricard - Wed 4 Feb 2015

[Sheamus Power]

I'll sign up with the McLaren please.

[Edit] Got confused and talked nonsense!

Since we ditched the licenses, you need to have a premium membership to participate in our events. More info here.

Don't agree with this. First we needed licenses, now we need to pay. Really not happy about this. I totally agree you need to separate crashers from good guys but paying... Come on.
I saw what advantages a premium member have, but tell me what's the difference between regular and licensed?

And I'm a bit confused. I see myself on the entry list. Am I still participating in the event since I'm not a premium member?

The membership is required for RD to be able to pay the annual server costs.

About your other question, I will quote a paragraph from the link I sent you:

At the first of March the current "licensed member" group will cease to exist and all accounts will become regular registered users with or without premium feature access.

So until March 1st, you can participate in all the club events with no extra cost.

I was aware the money is for the website or community related, don't worry, I wasn't thinking RD guys are ripping us I'm just upset like everybody else who is asked for more money

Sign me up with the SLS.

I am terrible at finding setups and I was wondering if someone could give me a hand.

I tried the track with mediums, 30L and default setup for the Z4 and lapped until I learn it and I was relatively consistent (it took me nearly 30 laps).

Then, my reasoning was:

1) Reduce wing, specially in the back due to the long straights and adjust change rations accordingly.
2) Slightly soften front suspension because of the long low speed turns and some understeer i was experiencing.
3) Increase front ARB to help deal with the quick changes of directions on the multiple S-sections.
4) Increase front bump to help on the S-sections.

I also tried reducing the diff coasting, but that just lead me to have some snap oversteer on changing direction and on reducing radius turns, so I left it at the default 40%.

Did I do something terrible wrong?

 

[Niki Đaković]

Do you want my setup adria? no? ok. Just use some stiff spring here, like 200 on front, not bumpy track. And 1-4wing is for z4 almost all tracks. Then go from there.

 

[Adria Perez]

Do you want my setup adria?

Sure, but I would prefer to understand how to make these setups myself.

 

[Niki Đaković]

Look, I just edited post. Reread

Thanks, so suspension stiffness is basically related to surface bumpiness and not that much to do with under- over-steering?

Yea. You can dose rear spring for highspeed corner oversteer. But mostly arb is better to find balance with. Relation, front to rear.

[Peyo Peev]

Sorry guys, sign me off.

 

[James Hemp]

Never driven on Paul Ricard until today. Not very difficult but still tricky. Still, it made me sleepy. I think I'll catch a nap untill the race.

 

[mihc]
