rec.autos.simulators

It's a great game. But I suck at it. My best time in the F is 1.39.40
while everyone else is turning in 1.35 laps in the same car.

I've downloaded some setups and these have helped but I think it's my
driving.

Can somebody point me to a replay of a hot lap so I can study it, and
if possible the setup that was used?

Go to
http://forum.racesimcentral.com/showpost.php?s=&action=showpost&posti...
for a setup and
http://forum.racesimcentral.com/showpost.php?s=&action=showpost&posti...
for a replay.  Also, most people in the GTI are NOT doing laps in the 35s.
It sounds like you happened to join into a server with particularly quick
drivers at the time.  Myself, I can run fairly consistent laps in the 35s
with a best time of under 1:35.50.

Thanks Chris. Unfortunately those forums are not available to non-members
at present and you cant sign up.

Can't you? I'm already a member, so obviously couldn't go through the
whole process, but the registration form displays normally once
you've agreed to the T&Cs. It'd be a bit much to fill that lot in,
and *then* be told it was a wasted trip!

They do seem to have opened registrations again and I've registered, they
are checking them all manually and I'm waiting for my activation.

I have sort of assumed that the red light comes on when another gear
would offer more pull - as you say it comes on well before the redline.

Would be interesting to see the torque curve though.

The official LiveForSpeed forums has lots of 1.35.** gti replays in
them, such as this one..

The best public gti setup so far is Anhanguera's
which does 1.35's easily.
