Automobilista Inter-Community AMS Cup Series

I'm in. Fun cars

 

I will join Paul but I don´t know what to expect, mod and track are brand new for me, at least in Automobilista.
So I hope for the best and hopefully some more drivers

 

I also will be there. Just one thing. Like Philipp, I never drive this car

 

Cars are easy to drive with nice progressive handling i.e. can easily catch a slide. I've never driven them before either. Currently running 1:39's

 

Right Ken, we should stay positive

Yeah you are right but the tendency to understeer is not helping me. (1:40 for me)

 

For what it's worth I'll upload my setup after another practice later today

 

Here's my current setup. Just done a 1:39.2. Also added my hot lap replay file.
Haven't done any long runs so no idea what tyre wear will be like.
Hope it's of some help

 

Thanks Paul, that helped, although 2 rear wing is maybe a bit too aggressive.
I did a long run up to 30 laps and I think tyre wear is not that of an issue.

 

Good info thanks. I think the race is an hour long so hopefully the tyres will last.
What lap times were you doing? I'm averaging in the high 1:39's.

 

1:39,6 was my fastest, but I was on the server with someone who did high 1:38´s

 

I'm on 1:40:xxx. can't go under 40

I will take 12 if is OK for you, guys.

 

I'll take 10

 

There are two skins for each team, so we should not have any problem in sharing the 12, anyway I think the red and black skin is included several times.

Did you try Pauls Set up with rear wing 3?
In addition to that I had the same feeling, needed a lot of time to to get into the 1:39. I focused
then on my long run pace. Oh and to answer the tyre wear question, I run again a long run, the rear tyres did slightly go away, but you can still drive with them. But in general be careful it is easy to throw the car away.

 

Wrong post

 

Not quite, I still bemoan with my early mistake into the druids corner were I slightly touched the gras and spun off.
Without that mistake the top ten or more was possible. Probably the same for Paul, who suddendly faced into the wrong direction as I headed through turn one.
Probably neither my day, track or car but the opposition is also quite strong.

Looking foward to the next one.

 

Ken this was a very strong field so our results were pretty good.
After the first lap fun and games I found myself in 8th but this didn't last. Lost the backend into T1 and span. Then a few laps later I lost the back end in the run up to the island hairpin. Then I made a real hash up of trying to spin the car back around and ended up having to take to the grass and do a big U-turn to get back on track. Now in 15th I spent the rest of the race chasing Philip. Got within 3 - 4 seconds of him and then came across him recovering from his on spin. Was surprised I was 11th at the end. I guess others had there on dramas. These were fun cars but very easy to loose the back end especially if you got on a kerb. I find this with AMS if hit certain kerb it spins you without any chance of saving it. I think this was our best result yet. Hopefully we can begin to pull ourselves off the bottom of the championship standings. We really need 4 driving to start maximising points. Hopefully the 3 of us can race the next round with Ken making up the 4th driver we need. Well done to Philipp and Falviu

 

I'm driving the next round
