Hi, Im new in ICR2 I am GP2 and ex-F1GP racer, but now im dirving a lot in
ICR2 (only in 2 tracks, Loudon and Milwaukee)

I have some questions :

How do you use the turbo, I know how to change the turbo, but what do you
usually do in long races ? running with it at say 7 and using the 9 only
some laps, ... using it at full (9) all the time ?

How many revs do you use ? (I use the Ford engine)

Where can I find good setups for Loudon and Milwaukee ? (a keyboard driver
here)

PS : Excuse my english, Im Spanish ... like Pedro de la Rosa =)

Hi,

Welcome aboard!

On most courses, oval especially, I keep it on 9, only cutting back if
needing to conserve fuel for a special "pit strategy".  Some road
courses, however, you may want to turn it down some.

Generally, in the 12,500-13,500 bracket.  However, the best way to set
it is to have the rev light coming on right at the end of the fastest
part of the course.  Adjust 6th gear accordingly.

You can try:  http://sim***world.simplenet.com  They have a lot of
setups, & BB&B tracks as well.  Check them out!!  If you really like
this sim, you will probably want to invest at least a minimal amount of
$ in a wheel.  Makes all the difference in the world.  I use a
Thrustmaster GP1, they go for about 50 bux here in the Detroit area.

Don't worry about it.  Your English is just fine ;^)
