It could just be that I carry more speed down the straight. I can't remember if I changed the gearing for Grobnik. This is what it looks like:

Thanks for sharing the video! I have a 1.40.90 as a personal best, and the main difference I see - more than the driving skills, of course - is in not changing gear in the middle section of the track. Keeping the 3rd gear seems to give a lot of more speed while entering the straights. I'll keep practicing, I have a lot of time now since I got a 2 weeks suspension Gianluca [/quote]
I survived lap 1. Now I can deal with anything in life.

Thank you. This corona virus isolation has finally given me enough time to get decent at this game, but I have a long way to go till Im even remotely at that level
Gianluca yes I have also found that that third is the best for that section. I have a question for Steen about the timing of the gear changes though. According to the power/torque graph of the car the car stops gaining much power or torque after about 6,500-7000 RPM, which is not even in the yellow zone on the limiter. Would shifting up sooner (in the 6500-7000 RPM range) result in faster lap times? Or are these graphs not a very good indicator of when to actually shift and I should rely on the limiter more?

(04-07-2020, 09:02 AM)I shift between 3rd and 4th, I guess this is why in my setup I use a different gear ratio. But I\ll give a try to this one and keeping the 3rd.Niko Kecek Wrote: Thank you.
