Somebody can help me please? Thanks!
You don't really need to change anything to be fairly quick, the only thing I do is change the brake balance to about 80% to stop the rears from locking. You are probably just struggling bc of lack of ABS. If you're lapping 1:37/low 1:38 you are relatively quick. Tell me why you feel you need to change the setup, what corners are you struggling with etc. and we can maybe figure something out.
Thanks Robbie, you can see me in RSR, I'm just one position quicker/slower than you so I lap in 1:37 (but a ideal lap for me will be 1:36.8, I always do a couple of small errors)  Tongue 
For me the hardest turns are the first and Westfield (the second fast right after the back straight) because if the car is a little bit slower begin to slide tooo much and I lose some tents Big Grin
I will try to work on brake balance and I will let you know.
See you on the track and thank you!
You are absolutely right, I knew I recognised your name! Yes, for me the brake balance was the big thing, made me a lot more consistent under braking. Also on the medium tyres, the left front has a tendency to get HOT (at least when I drive), so I'd have a look at that as well and if you have the same problem, just up the pressure in the left front by a couple of psi. You will have less maximum grip, but you will have a lot more grip over the course of the race because the tyre won't be overheating. And yes, a high thirty six is also my ideal lap, I did a  1:36.8 also in the race yesterday with a full load of fuel but I'm very inconsistent so I know I wouldn't be able to go any quicker haha, think it was a freak lap. Let me know how it goes. I'm racing in the 16:00 GMT race, hope to see you there! Would be a good race I think as we are similar pace wise.  All the best.
