| I would appreciate if anybody could let me a good setup for Brazil | Iam only getting 1.20 Well, it's a tough track. I seem to have most of the trouble in the Bico do Pato hairpin and if I manage to do that well (whilst showing improvement on lap-times) I get so exited that I spin off in the Curva 4 :-( Besides, I run it on a laptop (Toshiba 410CDT, P90, 24MB) and have to use the keyboard for control (no game/joystick port). With the keyboard it seems to be impossible to brake decently without locking up the wheels (or am I overlooking something??) After practicing 60 laps or so, I managed to do a 1:19:958 with a setup: front wing 8 rear wing 3 front height 27 rear height 52 --[ Edwin ]-- -- Dept. of Computer Science, Utrecht University, The Netherlands [WHOIS: ehk3] -------------------- http://www.cs.ruu.nl/people/edwin/ -----------------------

I run GP2 on a P90 notebook (no joystick port) and have to play with the keyboard. With keyboard, everything is "switched": you either brake or you don't. Same thing with steering: is either straight ahead of fully-locked left/right -- I've tried that once and to nobody's surprise that will spin you around. The brakes are most annoying with keyboard control: if you press the brakes, you lock up the wheels. Still I prefer this over the brake-help. Oh yes, I could try pumping the brakes by tapping like a complete idiot on the keyboard but that will destroy the keyboard, my finger and will only confirm my wife's opinion on me when I'm playing GP2 <;-) best regards, --[ Edwin ]-- -- Dept. of Computer Science, Utrecht University, The Netherlands [WHOIS: ehk3] -------------------- http://www.cs.ruu.nl/people/edwin/ -----------------------

Do you use throttle help? There is no way I can handle the car with the wings set like that, I always lose the back end in the 1st/2nd gear corners. My wing settings are something like front=2 rear=3 and I`ve managed a 1:18:9xx.

----------------------- I can get 1:19 using front wing: 1 rear wing: 1 front height: 30 rear height: 47 packers: enough to top it bumping. Keyboard with steering control, 206 mph on the pit straight. Unfortunately people keep hitting me.
