N2 Pocono Speeds

I am working on a Pocono set up cause I'm really beginning to like the
course and the best I can muster is 164.980 I was wondering if some of you
could post your laptime/speed so I can gauge where I'm at with this setup!

54.018 secs.  I just finished 8th there in the season I'm doing against
100% AI, 32% distance, damage, yellows, pace on.  I won the next two
events, Michigan and Loudon, and now it's back to (sigh) Pocono.  The
real trick here is getting together a setup that conserves the tires,
yet makes enough horsepower as you exit the corners.  I've still got a
lot of tweaking ahead of me on this one...

God Bless,
Steve

After a couple of tweaks, I'm down to 53.9, but the car still has a lot
more speed than I'm getting out of it.

I have managed a 164.838 (54.599 sec) at Pocono although not
constantly. I find that I am cooking my RF tire forcing me
into the pits early. Overall on a 30% race I am having to make
one extra pit stop than I would like.
More work in the garage is in order.

My full race setup will just miss 171's.  My best has been 170.850 and
I feel 171's are possible... Someone posted a 173 lap... no comment:)

You mean you're getting sick of being taken out by stupidity moves by
the AI racers?  I've had some "doo-sies.":)  

Remember, I never said I felt special or was "mighty"... you did
(BSEG).  Got to get some sleep.. Later bud:)

I'd sure like to see a replay of a 173mph lap at Pocono.  I'm assuming
this was driven with Damage on, in realistic mode as opposed to arcade.
I'm doing all of my driving in random weather, I'd be curious to know
how others are faring who do the same...

God Bless,
Steve

i been doing random weather as well usually in the high 80's i hit 168's
and a 169.017 for top speed... 173 maybe if you have a great line or
found something in the setups that works real good. don't forget i think
every 5 mph is only like .8 seconds so im sure its possible...

Well, there is only one "Mr. Turtle" <G> but to us lesser mortals I
created a decent qual setup for Pocono. You can find it from the
alt.binaries.simulators.autos.

Hi Steve, this new setup can break the track record at 70 degrees, no
wind and of course full tank. The .zip I posted includes a replay of a
168,4xx lap which wasn't even close to being a good lap (I messed up
the first turn for example) but just to give you an indication what
the setup can do (I only spent half an hour at the track).

Greetings,

Pekka Heino
