this is brandon my chat is disabled . sorry if i hit you not on purpose

 

Press the t key and you can type text in the session. We're all understanding, the first few races of the season might be kind of messy. We have a lot of new drivers including myself.

 

Turns out I lost control many times …. but I did have fun …. and no longer an on track iRacing virgin! I think I prefer the track car to the C-spec (which seems to roll at the blink of an eye) …… but I'll stick with it and see y'all on Wed night!

 

Another vote for the Track car over the C spec, if there is a chance of changing for the rest of the season.

 

Very fun session. Picked up a lot of speed once I started braking earlier, and trail braking some in certain corners to carry that rotation through the corner. It's a rather tricky car to drive. I'd be fine switching to the track car though I haven't driven it yet.

This was fun! I don't know what it was in the set-up, maybe I racing changed it a little, but I flat out tipped over in a couple of turns. How does that happen?

I apologize to a couple of racers as I did not see you next to me and came in on you. Maybe I should expedite shipping on three monitors!

 

Sounds like a lot of votes for the track car. We'll do this first one with the c spec then switch after that. If after the cats get updated people want more c spec action, we can switch back.

 

The Tudor scheduled races I put at night and the pca as day for Sebring and Daytona. I'll make you guys admin on those races when I go back in to change the cars.

 

this was a good session. for 2 days i couldn't get anything lower than 1:35. this session i was able to get in the 1:28s. i know i can go faster but my car is on the edge. On some turns it just flips over.

 

+i have time if any of you want run

 

For all the guys flipping, do you see the double high curbing ala F1? So the curbing closer to the track is low and safe to hit, but if you cut the corner just a bit more you hit that taller curbing and if you don't immediately take out any steering, you'll go 2 wheeling or flip?

 

You didn't need to hit the curbing, at the end of the session for some reason I was bicycling around the last corner a couple of times.

 

I'm pretty sure there is a big bump on the apex of T11 (final turn), so that aggravates this along with making a lot of people spin out there.

 

that corner and the one right before the cork screw

 

good times last night boys... I agree with the track over c-spec call. out of the gate, the track version rotated much better and was much more forgiving. I spent a lot of time tweaking set-up in the c-spec before our session, and still couldn't get the car to behave (could only get my times down to low 1:29's). Tried Sean's shared set-up (thank you sean) and I dropped 2 seconds on my second lap (1:27.2)... however, even that set-up was twitchy and unforgiving. I tried to replicate the set-up from the track version (copying spring rates, ride height, shock settings, etc), and it wouldn't work either... I'm sure there is a sweet spot in the c-spec set-up (clearly a few of the guys running in the 1:24 range figured it out), but I'd rather focus on the driving and not car set-up.
