Yeah, I have.

I was just turning some laps with the adjustment in iRacing maxed out. That's a bit much (pedal effort is a bit high)...but it was a lot better feel than the default.

I think my happy place with the nonlinear brake setting will be around 3.5-4 (running a G27 now)

woohoo! another one...

I think there's something to not cooking your tires in the early laps after pitting ... I just try to be patient and slowly make my way past. Seems to work.

Awesome! Yeah tires are a big issue at Richmond. I just did a league race there. We did 133 laps with one pit stop at lap 35. The truck lets you abuse the tires a little but you pay for it for the next couple of laps. YOu just need to find a rythum and stick with it. NExt week at Atlanta will be different allthough tire fall off will be there its not as big of a deal.


Anyway Congrats man!

I was one and done at Richmond. After my T1 lap 1 mishap I left Richmond with a sour taste. It's now time for some fast Atlanta.

Atlanta should be fun! Back in the Papyrus days it was the first track I ever raced at and really learned. Also only track I have been at for a real NASCAR Sprint Cup race.

I ran the fixed race there last night and did better than I thought, finished 4th and it's so different from Richmond, of course.

I'll miss Richmond as I think I had that sucker figured out, but it is nice to get a change of scenery.
