Toff244 Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 does anyone have a basic setup i could use to learn to drive one of these with thats a bit more forgiving than the default? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bristolstokie Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 I don't race F1 very often but tempted to next year. In the past when I have tried it I was told that the default is actually a good place to start from. From the limited experience I have I would say it is more about the technique and especially not being too throttle happy. Gearing would be the first thing to work on and then experiment from there.

southy277 Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 I agree with the above. The defaults will get you going well and get you somewhere near the pace. If people start sending you setups then you will fine there they all setup and feel different as they have been customed for the driver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southy277 Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 Dont compare track times against other formula's. I will post average laptimes up later for you to compare against. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will post average laptimes up later for you to compare against. no'ing average lap times might encourage me to come have a play aswell got told a few lap times a while back but people only tend to say there best times lol and i was .3/4 off the pace with controller so thought id give it a miss till i got another steering wheel.

southy277 Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 I have noted a few below. The first set of times for each track is what the fast guys and I get. The second is what I would say a good lap is. Don't try aim for the fastest laps every lap, if you get within .300 of the first times below consistantly for 20 laps without spinning then you will be fine. Belle Vue 13.6 - 13.9 Bradford Tarmac 12.9 - 13.1 Coventry 13.9 - 14.2 Hednesford 13.9 - 14.2 Ipswich 14.6 - 14.9 Kings Lynn 14.1 - 14.4 Northampton 13.6 - 13.9 Skegness 12.8 - 13.1 Hope this helps....
