The '03 Pesky Courage is probably the easiest Le Mans car to drive in stock form, and this setup makes it even easier. Note the stock HP. I think anything more is unnecessary. You should dominate every Le Mans car event in the game with this rig, as is.

Tire wear is excellent. In some events you can get away with an R4/R3 combo.

Note the LSD settings. The car is stuck to the track so hard you need hardly any limited-slip at all. At Midfield it likes 5/5/5. (The final drive is for Midfield. Adjust as needed per track, such as 2.07 for Sarthe I.)

Very nice! 1'00.317 at Midfield. Likely could have been lower...I tried getting a sub-one minute lap time, but I think in doing so, I drove a little more sloppy than I normally would have.

This had nothing to do with what you think, if you even think at all.

Not a biggie - it just takes a little getting used to as it's one of the new features. If everyone uses it for the setups they like, it will serve to recognize those tuners who put a lot of effort into their setups. Regardless of driving style, it shows on most cars.

Wow. Nice tuning work on this one! Got my vote (my first vote, too). I did add just a hint more camber front and rear to suit my driving style, but otherwise this setup rocks! Kinda strange that I can make the tires last longer than my Stig can (usually it's the other way around), though. I had to set him on "cruise" for the SartheII endurance race to get 7 laps out of his tires. Any faster than that and he was burnin' the Medium fronts off in about 5 laps! Silly little Stig! Unibrow

Nice job, and thanks for sharing!

A very interresting setup that merit my vote

I think it is really valuable as it is an excellent base to make 1st class laptimes on almost every kind of track, but more it is a wholesome setup for advanced personal adaptation to your driving style.

As it is (no turbine kit & R3/R4Tyres) I instantly made a 1.5 sec better laptime on Midfield (0.37.998) than using my own previous setup. And it was a better laptime than the one I made with my configuration which was Turbo 4 and R5 tyres !
Not so bad.Thanks and praises to Zardoz !

I worked on this setup for adapting it to my driving style.The result seems to be far from this one (take a look in the New Setups section soon), but it is fair to give Zardoz the benefit to have given me a - very- good direction for these improvements.
