Sadly I can't make it. Good luck all who take part though. It should be a great race.

Here's my first crack at a stable setup:
http://www.fileden.com/files/2008/3/2/1792035/Joe_rFactor/Joe%20race.svm

Some notes:
- Still needs testing in the draft. Gearing is approximate. Should be capable of about 242 mph with enough of a tow.
- Fuel endurance at Boost 1 is 33-34 laps.
- Tires wear into the red at the end of the stint but are not near to puncturing.
- PB is 40.192 in clean air
- It feels neutral to me, with a touch of oversteer at exit. Careful and measured unwinding of the steering at corner exit is necessary.
- The was developed using RealFeel, and if you're not using it your FFB may feel bad. Positive camber on the inside tires does not always play well with rFactor FFB.

I will try to make this one however my PC is currently u/s after my OS went tits up on Sunday. I have decided to take the opportunity to do an upgrade while its buggered. New bits should arrive Wednesday (hopefully) but it does not leave a lot of time to do a rebuild and install OS, software etc before the race.

Fingers crossed.

[Edit] Its now Friday, no delivery so no racing for me for a while yet. Disappointed as the company I use for parts are normally very reliable.
