    Is there any way for you to send me your ghost so that I can see just where I'm losing 1.5 seconds? Or post the vid up? I wanna see these mad skillz!


    Check on page 2 - Wschnitz posted a link to the club / race page.
    Unfortunately, I usually do my hotlaps in test drive mode, so I don't believe their is a ghost available for that run. If I get on tonight I'll try to remember to do them in hot lap so one is available. I was in the low 46s pretty consistently, so that should be helpful. I'm really not that good, Leguna Seca is just one of my favorites.

    I'll check out the race page, thanks!

                  Awesome! Guess I better figure out the tire pressures.

                    Tire pressures are black magic. Once the final date has passed, mind posting what you found worked the best?

                      I guess this works did it on my lunch break.
                      For some more racing. I have always wanted to do a DTM car race. E30M3 190E Escort cosi and the two alfas. Make it so there are the same number of races as cars. But its a different track each race and you also have to use a different car.

                        This sounds pretty cool - not crazy about using a different car each race a different car each race, though.

                          I'll tell you as soon as I find out, no need to hide things. My hunch is somewhere between 32-35psi, with a pound or two more in the rear. We shall see.

                          I love this idea! We would have to come up with some sort of "spec" so that we keep things reasonable. Maybe use the rating from the earlier post as a guidline? We should do it independent from this though. I also really like this concept with the stock M3's.

                          I like that better, actually. Better for working on driving different types of cars.

                            Yes I think a class would be decent tuning level. But yes with your last idea it makes you master different cars. Plus you can tune each car to the track you like it on best. I do like spec races for sure but they tune race cars LOL

                              As a side note, all but my last time were done at 28/28psi, which was mistakenly saved by me. :oops: Last time was done on 35/34, which was also a bit backwards. Next chance I'll mess around a bit.
