Firstly I have hit at least 182mph, and secondly I disagree, in real life the Ferrari just has the legs on it. |

Do the Corvettes and Jaguars have the legs on everything in the corners in real life though? It's a game, and I've done my best to make them equal. And also in the game the Porsche and Corvette are about equal on the straight... |

You will be back for our test weekend then on the 19th ![]() And btw I also made a quick setup, mainly for hotlapping and stuff, I don't know what times are good in LMP yet, but I got the Lola around there in 3.15.8 I think it was... Some of the competition really shifts, the Porsche is scarily good through the Porsche curves! |

If that's the case looks like I'm not going to be a complete sitting duck on the straits in the Jag it can hit about 182 mph just before I break, not got much down force for the twisty bit though. Only seem able to get a 4:00 lap time out of it(Hot Lap no fuel or tyre wear), I really struggle for traction out of the slow speed corners but got 30 odd days to work on that so should be able to crack it. |

I don't think anybody is running any downforce at the moment, so that might help a little, but this race will definitely be really tough for the Jaguar. It's lack of straight line speed will certainly not help at Le Mans! I am not the best tuner, but for traction out of the slow speed corners in my Ferrari, I softened the rear roll bars by a really big amount, maybe 10.00 or something (It depends how loose your car is!) and that solved the problem and left me with a little bit of understeer in high speed corners so I added about 2psi of front tyre pressure. That is in a nutshell what I did. I revamped the whole car, but those 2 changes where the ones that had the most effect. Obviously the Jaguar is a very different car though, so it might be different in setup! |

Thanks I'll be giving that a go in the next few days, shouldn't need to much of a change in PSI the cars pretty understeery in the high speed corners because of the difference in min downforce for the front and rear. |

Yeah I have a very aggressive driving style and so I like my cars to oversteer, which is why I added the 2psi of front tyre pressure. |

You'll have company, this is what I'm turning with the Porsche RSR....I don't have much time to practice in the summer (busy at work) so I probably won't improve by much...

No, i took it all off when i realised... Then put some back on the front to achieve my aim of being godlike through the Porsche Curves. I failed. |
