Setup Version 1.1

This setup is tuned for the Nurburgring 24 Hour endurance race. Version 1.0 didn't fare as well as I hoped, so I made some adjustments. The major change is the switch to R2s and a 5-lap pit strategy. I'm going to make some minor changes to the transmission, but it will work as-is.

This should be a 200 A-Spec point race, given the right competition (if not, adjust the rear downforce or add a bit of ballast). The Nissan Falken is my "target" car, and the race should be winnable (but VERY difficult) against a lineup where it's the lead car. The Audi TT is too fast, and some of the other touring cars may be, also.

To get the transmission settings, change the final first, then the auto set, then the individual gears.

The setup is designed to understeer slightly at speed, to help counteract the squirrelyness from the rigidity loss later on. Once it starts to slide, though, you'll need to watch out for power-on understeer on some corners.

Tuned for use with the DFP.
