yeah i noticed C lol im getting 230 fps with full graphik settings

its the x1900xt

The thing runs realy smooth, i just need to do something on the cooling lol,.. its just like a heater

And yeah i wanted to do one more race here this year, and i think spa is the perfect track for that.

Thank You Klaazzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Flow · Post by **Flow** » 30 Sep 2006, 07:26

i finaly broke the 46 barier, even if i did 49.9, lol

If im right (sine in server alot ask and i didnt knew) the race lenght will be 44 laps. I ussgest that if you can, try to start at end of a full grid with AI, you can be suprise at some place were you realy need to watch other ass, and were you cant keep full trottle or you will loose grip by folowing too close on some high speed corner, and be surprise that the last fast curve section, theyrs no realy space to pass at hight speed.

Good luck for the race.

killahead · Post by **killahead** » 30 Sep 2006, 09:09

Yes and it will be EXTRA important to tae it easy in T1 since it is a hair pin, it is very easy to come in too fast there when the cars in front practically are standing still.

Keep that in mind Ingo, I don't want another unplesant surprise on sunday

brad · Post by **brad** » 30 Sep 2006, 15:06

best so far is a 46:1xx but i feel 45s are coming, 44s, probably in my dreams, but theres still some room in my setup so who knows. i gotta work on balance because my best times come with about 3-5 laps worth of fuel in the car, on qualify fuel im slower, guess i need more front weight on low fuel?

well i guess i should first ask, if the fuel tank behind, infront, or about in the middle of the longitudinal center of gravity? any guesstimates on where static aero center of pressure would be with front wings 3 higher than rear?

Flow · Post by **Flow** » 30 Sep 2006, 18:16

In F1Chalenge, to have a good balance even on braking was to change the balance front to left as the fuel was getting donw. In F1C, i dont know if the mod is set as mutch realism...

Hehe... and I thought I knew this track.
Just tried a session and I am barely touching the 1.50s barrier.
I don't think I am pushing hard enough in some of the 3rd 4th gear corners in the middle section.
But Spa is like that.. It is a beautiful and extremely technical piece of racetrack.
Got to love it
