GP2: Pitexit at Spa with T2

by Martin Granber » Thu, 15 Aug 1996 04:00:00

Well, my problem is that when I have steering help off and try to exit the
pitlane at Spa I can't make the corner. The car just goes (almost) straight
into the pitwall! Perhaps if I put wheel lock at maximum it could be done,
but that wont be very nice when trying to make Eau Rouge (sp?) in 6th. I
have a feeling the fast left-right-left might end up in a wall. :(

Can I get around this problem somehow? Have you guys racing with T2 the same
problem?

Hmm, you really have a weird problem there. The obvious thing is to go
realllllyyyy slow. A problem you may have though may have to do with the
bungee cord in your T2. You could try contacting their tech support and ask
them for a bungee, but I was never able to replace it myself, and when I
got one replaced by tech support, I never noticed much of a difference.
Make sure your wheel lock is like 20 degreees or higher so you can get out
of the pits at spa. I prefer 23 on just about all courses. Good luck.  ;-)

Iam raceing with a T2, use 14 degrees of wheellock, and can drive out of the
pits :-) Be very slow, first gear, take the right entrance and turn full to
the right. Dont stay on the throttle and dont excellerate to early. Thats it.

Cheers Thomas

Yeah but if you were good you would go down the pitlane and just at the
point you can accelerate hard just just blip the throttle a little bit
and bring the car round the corner without having to steer too much (You
only turn a little bit but it is fun trying :) )
