No idea who told you that, but I run with TCS and ABS, nothing else. STM I found early on was useless, and manual I learned last month after putting it off for too long. Trust me, manual has improved both my speed and my enjoyment of Forza so much!

ABS off makes you around half a second quicker per lap...

Not sure what it is or if it's dangerous but I've only done it once and I thought Sesame Street was downstairs.

ABS mostly causes me to lock up and crash. I don't know why, perhaps it's my late braking tendencies, but I can only use ABS while being dainty on my brakes, which leads to me being slow. It's just never something I could figure out.

Carlsons, didn't you say you were doing 29's with the odd 28 when you were applying to join Peugeot? Now your best is a 30? :Z

I was with a setup that, as it turns out, is illegal because of the downforce regulations applied to the Peugeot now. Once BB informed me of the limits, the setup became nullified, and so times dropped.

Just went out for another few laps, managed a 1:29.8, averages are starting to get into the high 1:30s now. I dunno, maybe it;s just I need to get better at Mugello, that or if somebody has a setup kicking around?

50lbs of front downforce will not cost you 2 seconds though? Just remove it from the tune?

I tried fiddling with the tune after I changed the downforce, but it seems even that little amount was costing me in the corners. It's weird.

Yeah, I guess the Astons will have company in Lobby 2, because I'm screwed at Mugello.

While we're at it James, send me the tune for the Peugeot, you said that could do 28s as well.

Also, despite my issues with lap times, I've put a couple decidedly Canadian sponsors on my Peugeot, along with the usual Canadian flags, to spice things up.

I can give you mine if you want? Not sure if it will work for Mugello though :P

I would really appreciate it RIOT, I'm not going to be in town for Mugello so it's ok, besides, i just need a base setup for the acura, from there, I can make the minor tweaks.
