Anyone have any setups for Road Atlanta in GTR2002? (specifically the 550?)
http://sln.m4d.sm/f1/index.htm
it is a port of the SCGT version

to use it in gtr2002, simply copy over the roadatlanta folder
from f1 2002 in season02/tracks to gtrseason02/tracks and it
should work (at least it worked here).
cheers,
uwe

Although I haven't driven all circuits extensively yet, I have to say this
is my favourite track right now. You can really fly through some of those
corners! (often literally...)
Happy new year!

I'm running the JVG Porsche (N-GT class), and tried the Dinington set-up like
you suggest. It fits quite well, except that the bumps and undulations on
this track (particularly at the top of the last drop off just before th last
right-hander) really unbalance the car. I know next to nothing on set-ups,
so would you have any suggestions on what changes to make to settle the car
over these bumps? Thanks!
(The only changes I make to Doug's set-ups is lowering the diff to 40% -- I
know that you have yours around 20%, but that's a bit too squirrely for
me....)

P.S: In an earlier post regarding the MOMO wheel, you clued me into using
the Profiler, and siad that you were working on tweaking the brake axis to
have it better match the pedal in GPL. Did you ever settle on a value? I
have mine at 33% with 5% deadzone and it feels pretty good.

Haven't got that far yet, plus I was in the 360, which I flipped, so I guess
I am having that problem too. First guess would be to bump up the ride
height a notch. Also it might make sense to try the Brands Hatch setup
instead, since that is probably designed for a little more vertical action.
I'm not familiar with all the new tracks yet, so there may be others that
are better. Basically look for any track that has a similar length of the
straights, similar turn radii, and the same amount of vertical drops.
Actually I think that was Jason Moyer that said that. I won't disagree with
him because he is clearly a very fast driver, but I will say it's very
dependent on driving style. Personally I like to use as much diff lock as I
can get away with - usually about 60% for a mid-engined car. Not sure what
the Porsche would like, possibly more since there is more weight on the
rear? For comparison in GPL the more weight on the rear axle the more diff
clutches I can get away with, so I would assume the Porsche would like 70%
or more. But this really depends on your ability to use the throttle to
push the car hard enough through the turn to get it to drift, so if you are
not comfortable with that you probably will want less diff lock.
What I am using right now is 50% sensitivity, 0% dead spot, and 80% axis
range. I went this route instead because the previous method (changing the
sensitivity) seemed too hard to tune and seemed to vary too much with car
and setup choices. 80% range gives you full linearity, it just means you
will never have the brake pressure at full. But I have never felt the need
to use full brake pressure in GPL, so it doesn't seem to be a problem. So I
backed off on the range until I could feel the pedal starting to get stiff
at approximately the same point that the brakes started to function and that
worked out to 80%. Haven't had to make any changes to other games, it was
only GPL with its twitchy brake sensitivity that was a problem. Honestly,
they felt like wet power assisted disc brakes before I made the change.
Anyway now I feel like I am getting a very consistent pedal feel in GPL and
my ability to find the sweet spot in braking has improved as a result.
One thing I should note is that you do not want to recalibrate in GPL after
doing this or the effect of the change will disappear. If for some reason
you have to recalibrate, set the axis range in the Profiler back to 100%
first, recalibrate in GPL, and then go back and change the Profiler range to
whatever you ended up with.
