Hi
I've got the game for about a week so I'm also gpl newbe. I've read
somewhere that at first you shouldn't bother about the setup to much but
jump at the car and do hundreds of laps. I tried and it works so far. I
downloaded Greger Ferrari race setup for Glen, adjusted only brake bias from
54 to 58 and I'm cruising on the track. My times (1.06.5xx -1.07.5xx) are of
course far from his (1.03.6xx in Eagle) but I hope the speed will come with
more practice.

Consistent 1:07s after one week "cruising"??? Makes me feel so inadequate.
It's taken me ages to get below 1:06 even once.
If you get into the 1:03 bracket at all, you can rate yourself among the
absolute elite - if you do it in a Ferrari, I want to see the replay!

Yesterday evening I clocked 1.05.73 with Ferrari, but 1.03xx in this car is
rather impossible. Unfortunately my consistency is limited by my crappy
wheel that lose its adjustments in the worst possible moment :-(. Interact
V3 sucks!

My, how times have changed. Getting into the 1:06s at the Glen took the
majority of us months and months of practice. And you did it in a little
over a week. At that rate, you will be in the 1:03-4s within a few months.

For claryfication, i had totally free week, everyday i played from mornign
to afternoon.
Today i clocked 1.05.27 with Ferrari and i think i reached my limit . To get
1.03-4 i will have to switch to lotus and practice harder.

Something tells me you're under 1:29 at Monza too; I finally broke 1:30 last
week.

For the moment I've concentrated only on Glen. Yesterday i compared my
hotlap with some lotus/eagle 1.03.xxx from Schubi's page. I discovered that
the most time i lose on the straights and in the last part of the track. I
hope switching to lotus will solve the problem with straights but to get
better through Big Bend (about 0,2 sec loss) and especially 90* (0,3 s) i
would make up something special. I've got 2 more free days to complete this
task, than i'll have to come back to the real world :-(
