Well, that's an idea... I could try doing some "easy" setups.

Actually Greger, it doesn't seem as though you've really changed your
style so much as adjusted it to accomodate a more open diff. I can see
that you're not understeering as much through the apex of your turns
although that seems to be how you keep the rear end from getting
loose...by sort of shoving the car through the apex at the limit of
understeer rather than oversteer. Must be hard finding just the right
angle to turn the wheel to keep from getting too much understeer.
What for?? haven't you already "been there, done that"??

Mostly my "style" has changed so that I use the pedals (especially
throttle) smoother than before and only make minor corrections with
the wheel when exiting a corner.
It's difficult to explain one's driving but I guess you're right about
the understeering bit. I enter the corners quite fast so that the car
will just start to understeer a little and then I back off the
throttle slightly. And of course the steering angle is important here.
Most important thing is the timing. Let's take Parabolica at Imola as
an example. Brakes, change down to 4th gear, turn-in and control the
under/oversteer with the throttle. Parabolica is a fast corner so you
never really have to back off the throttle completely. If you turn-in
too late, you need to back off the throttle more and maybe turn in
harder. Too early, and you need more throttle.
I never use excessive steering angles.
Well, yes. But if it helps someone else I might try doing that. :)

Sigh, I was afraid you were going to say that <g>
I certainly wouldn't mind. Although changing the diff and clutches back to
more usual values (like 85/45 and 5) already helped a lot at Imola.

Greger.....yes please that would help slow pokes......like me :))

p.s. I'd probably have to shift to 2nd at Imola, TOO<g>

When cars in Austrailia spin, do they spin in the opposite direction of
those in the Northern hemisphere?
