got sebring 1.5 (was previously using 1.0). now my personal best is 2:07.87. set wing to 6 and fuel to 5 laps. seems like i set my best times at 3 laps in then the tires go off... after 5 laps the car did not seem to want to brake ![Embarrassment](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/redface.gif)
sebring 1.5 is a lot smoother than 1.0.

Glad to hear it, I guess i'll have to mess with the setups more but as I don't think i've made 10 fast laps in a row without some sort of incident I better work on that 1st...
The tires are an issue that have to be worked with, 1st lap they are horrible and they go away pretty quickly. A 12 second pit stop gets you new tires but costs you a lot more than 12 seconds.

my setup was pretty much stock except for fuel.
tires do go off quickly. i haven't done a 10 lap stint yet but i can only image how bad they will be.

+1 what sysgen said about bumping each other. I tried to follow an AI car and it was very very hard not to ram him at just about every turn.
If you can get out right behind an AI car it's great practice or set up a time with someone else to practice this.
Don't get frustrated by it, we all just need seat (desk) time![Smilie](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
Also, with all the set up secrets you guys are posting I was able to get a 2:06:43.
Just kidding

i find if i don't concentrate too much on braking too deep, i end up with more corner speed. get on the throttle as soon ASAP.

We tried a quick practice race tonight. RayS, Phokio, Jester, myself and 3 AI. Seems to be an issue with the Pace car, he ran into the outside wall (opposite Pit-in) just before the flag went green! While I was scratching my head Phok went wizzing by me and I heard GREEN GREEN GREEN on the radio.. LOL

That was a funny start with the pace car. Unfortunately the wife was getting angry because I wasn't at the dinner table so I had to abort.
We will have to try again.

I only had 4 laps of fuel on board (Qualifying load) and I was given a 10 second stop and go penalty (probably for hitting the pace car........don't know why was he on track after the start??) so I did not have a great race, but it was good practice......
