I tot use less fuel means can pit less?
anyway, out of boredom, I went to test race settings just now...so many wall kisses and doughnuts
and my brakes also failed on lap 17-18. Which lap did you guys lose your brakes?
see the pic...only front left brake totally gone (0.000cm)...dunno why


Attached thumbnail(s)

I guess depends on fuel rules in a game...the x2 or x3 thing.

Did screw my race in one racing game.
I use low RPM and pitted twice(2)
Others, once
If not, I would have got a better position in the race.

Like I said, this new rules gonna make our new season more interesting
More spinning and reliability issues

my brake pad gone around 12-13laps...
perhaps we try to adjust the fuel to 4X and test tonight again?

my suggestion.
race length: 50%
fuel usage: 2x
tire wear:2x

Any format would be fine.
Bring it on

But MOMO user...your legs will feel sore...I guarantee
All those joints and muscle.
I know I am
Find a nice comfy chair to sit.

3x tyre wear..

no more kamikaze like RH2004.
Need to baby the car now

Usually for the league..when do you guys start racing?At night?

Practice starts at 9pm...race or qualifying at 10pm.

changing the tyre wear/fuel will help our brakes problem meh?
after last night's test...I've come up with 2 solutions.
1) if you feel the brakes totally gone...switch your brake bias to FULL REAR and drive slower a bit.
2) try using lower brake pressure or brake sensitivity (haven't tested...gonna test tonight )
3) increase Engine brake mapping (forgot what its really called ady) which helps in braking...but eats a lot of fuel if you do...

besides these 3...I dunno what other solution there is

OMG..the first race is on the 6th of April..a Friday..and I've got classes on Fridays

Definitely cannot get back in time

Or trying to be smoother while driving.....

i agree..

I agree too!! I also agree with manual transmission...

i think ur brake pressure put too geng izzit? coz i maximum i put is only 90%, and i step slow slow my brake.. but gkl, when yesterday practice time when i spun, i saw ur brake was totally in red, like burning in fire... nowonder ur brake so fast makan habis loh...


hey, better clarify it to race admin 1st, coz i think we'll be racing on every Friday

u guys drive slow slow laa... drive so fast cannot 1 la in RH05, must sayang ur car 1, i think if too aggressive, mayb lost gear also, like lost 5th gear..

oh ya... are we going to play 'Change weather' this season? it seems like challenging to me, at least got a real feeling of F1.. need to play strategy changing tyres, choosing tyre and when to pit, if play change weather, i agree 100% coz we say tis season must play a bit real ma, so tat's y we change from auto to manual transmission.. 'Change weather' is a good option also..

I just tested Austrialia 18 laps, my brakes dun have problem... What i did is reduce the brake pressure and also change my braking style...

Good... good...
But now thinking how to set the LCD on the button on momo steering, looks like is too less button in momo d... if not, then hav to use other hand and press keyboard liao

With MOMO you need some practice on the buttons.
Watch the temp of the engine...brakes.

Tyre changing I never done before.
Since we never use changing weather.
Dunno how to change tyre during race from dry to wet to intermediate and vice versa.
