What do you all think of permitting adjustable diff settings? I find the current settings pretty sloppy even after some significant testing. I can run the car consistently enough at 9/10ths, but I can also easily tweak these diffs to knock at least a second off my time and still be well within the safety margins.

Otherwise I can provide a pretty good setup for you to try that I think most everybody will find very easy to drive fast. It hooks up everywhere, even under full boost and cold rubber, you can be incredibly aggressive with it. Actually makes the cars pretty easy to drive. I tried it out earlier just for a couple of laps and immediately ran in the low 27s on Qs with relative ease (full boost).

Anyway, let me know what you think.

I disagree with adjustable diff settings. I feel it takes away from the spirit of fixed setups. However if anyone wants to supply an alternative setup then I am sure we would be willing to try it out. The whole point though must be that these cars are managable for all abilities.

Yup, that was the spirit of my suggestion. A setup that's very easy to drive hard for all skill levels. If you don't mind, take it for a spin and let me know what you think. The approach to taming the rear is a little unconventional, but I think the result are undeniable. It doesn't turn as sharply as most people are probably used to, but it's actually very difficult to spin. You'll have to adjust the boost and max revs to meet race spec. If you don't beat your previous best time in short order, by a significant margin, and still be well within the limits of the car I'll honestly be pretty surprised.

F1'85 Monza Setup

I'm not an expert by any means, but I'd definitely be interested in making the setup a little more stable for me. After coming through chicanes, if I don't have the RPMs high I will definitely spin out but it seems almost impossible to keep RPMs high every time with autoclutch.

Sorry no offence but that setup is an .exe file and I never download .exe files from an unknown scource.

Huh? How's that possible? I just clicked on the link myself and the filename is "apex+~3eMonza88-F185(q).svm". There's no reason for me to up an exe file.

There's only so much that can be allowed to be adjustable with a fixed setting....I don't think differential settings are among them.

setup link worked fine for me no exe stew though u may of made the same mistake i did and clicked that big green download button when in fact its the link with the light blue bar in the middle of the page called: "click here to start download from sendspace sendspace"

i shall give this a run and get back to you matey

Good fun out there tonight. I'm still slow. I don't know if it was allowed, but can I jump into other vehicles to watch while you are driving?

Yep...if say, during practice you want to watch someone else drive, just select their name in the driver's menu and they will appear in the view window, usually 20 seconds delayed. Hit "R" to make it Live.

You can also use the same view keys to change views that you have when you're driving.
