After trying mission 34 roughly a million times, im sure most of us will never want to drive this car again lol. But seriously, this is a fun car to drive, its very stable over bumps and at high speeds! Infact i had quite a job getting this car to turn tighter, it seemed very unresponsive in its stock setting and had noticeable understeer. Im pretty sure i've solved that though with the tweaks i made to the suspension.

The car is on racing hard (R2) tires. But if you only have a 2/3 lap race feel free to use (R3) tires as the extra grip can shave seconds of your laptimes.

During my testing i found that i was able to consistantly get round 'the ring' in below 7 minutes, with my hot lap being 6:45.XXX.

This setup is like my other two, i like to try and make the car achieve better lap times yet still keep the original character of it intact.

TCS is set to 0, but may be set to 1. It is only needed for launch control, but it is not nesecary if you're easy on the throttle. Once the car is moving the tires dont spin at all.

On a totally unrelated note; if you drive using the chase view you also have the added bonus of seeing the airbrake pop up under heavy braking which is pretty cool!

As always your feedback is very welcome. Let me know what you think!

thanks for your feedback harshal. i made some modifications to the setup since you tested it and managed a 6:45.XXX around the ring. give it a try and see what you think.

Sweet setup dude, I got me a 6'39.727 on N Ring. It seems to handle heaps better under heavy braking with this setup. A lot of the other setups for this car give it a lot of understeer, but with this setup I reckon is very good. Anyway, good work.

Thanks Yamapikarya, thats an awesome time! I found this car to be naturally quite understeery (if that is a word lol) and tried my best to correct that with this setup and im glad you could notice the difference Big Grin it definately suits my driving style anyway. thanks once again for your feedback, happy driving!
