You need to have a race in something powerful with comfort softs on. Now that makes for an interesting race

I've just turned mine off too. Had stopped getting respectable times
Just after you left I stuck some comfort softs on and had a go at getting it sideways
You forgot to mention my 1:49.3, Chris Not half bad on a pad Just need to suss that part before the short straight.

cool, well from what i can remember
ride height wants a rake of about 2mm so if the front is 12 the rear is 10, set this to what you like, but not too low
the spring rate set to 8.2F and 10.2R
dampers set to 4F 6R on both
anitroll set to 2F 4R
camber 2.2F 1.8R
toe -0.16F 0.10R
that will give you a good start to tinker..

yea its a tricky one is that, you havet o just cut the corner without all your wheels coming off the track, you could almost power all the way through that corner with a good line.
