@michaelcords4339 right on 👍, remember to test it in a live practice with cars, makes a difference

@nikolasgrisak2571 I can not help you with that one. You might want to check the iracing forum. There is probably an answer there

@SleepyCatRacing ya the garage does not play friendly. Cambers and toes you have to adj 1 at a time and press apply. The setup download is available in the Ray forum

@@edwardbuchanan871 where is the ray forum?

@ftrln4 bottom left of the iracing page has a link to the forum. Click on it, search ray ff1600. Hosted by Adam miles, it will get you into the page for Q and A, stats, guides etc

@GB-zh3vz you too. Hopefully, it will be a year of not taking myself out

@funkybranes ya good clean battle, which it always the case here. This was the first race here, you guys gave me a really good lesson 👏

i was looking forward to brands, but the rain was not appealing to me.

@@duanebusch72 I ended up doing 4 races there, but the chance of rain kept me away for the weekend. Couldn't be bothered with that. It is just no fun.

It seemed like the chance of rain was higher than listed. I like snetterton, just a little tricky to get a clean race in

​@@Tia_BeaRain races are my favourite, but then I'm British! You really have to drive sensitively. I'm not all that fast, but try to be consistent, and have great back-and-forth races

@@SleepyCatRacing a big fat 0, wahoo

@@edwardbuchanan871 yay! the rain gets annoying very quickly, as do the resulting low participation numbers. snetterton is quite high in my fav tracks, although that's because of the 300 layout.

@marklay8879 yes, thank God we didn't have to do the feats of strength 🙏 😅

@jeanpoleppe way to go Jean. 👍 Thanks. Hope it's helping out

@@Tia_Bea you'll need to know or have a little faith in the cars around you here for sure

you got the line to the first corner but he had the line into the next would he have gotten in front of you if you had stayed left and sacrificed the line?

@duanebusch72 in retrospect, I should have stayed on the racing line to get rhe inside for the next 😦

@OMGitsChris-yd7jb the garage can be fussy. Save it as close as you have it, load another set up, then load this one again and try the change, should work. Also try changing all the settings but leave ride height for last. Mark Jeffery has been posting the setup file in the ff1600 forum lately as well

​@@edwardbuchanan871 on thr forum Ray FF 1600 you can find and download the setup file corresponding to your adjustments

@@edwardbuchanan871ok I will try that later thanks

@j-wray glad to hear it🙏 . Being the first race, I couldn't get the exact conditions for practice. For sure there is more grip in the real sessions. 1.00.4s when the tires are warm is where I am hovering. Too bad we didn't hit many races last season. Saturday mornings mst time and the 1st or 2nd race of the week I am usually on. Good luck 👍

@@edwardbuchanan871 I’ll try to catch you Saturday. Hope i can keep up.

@j-wray I have no doubt s you will 😉

Copse is an awesome corner! The exit of Becketts is off-camber, where it joins the Grand Prix circuit.

@NigelRCharman it sure is off camber 🤣

@midfieldracing219 it's a fantastic trainer and can make for some great racing 🏁. 100% give it a try next season

@ajmiles2 it's been an age! I was surprised at quickly it was coming back

@@GB-zh3vz thanks for the support. Just catch me in the rain 🌧 and you got me

the missing laps were just me slowly losing time to the cars in front. Frustrating and not much to see, just me getting soaked

@@marklay8879 had the shakes after that 😞

@kevinadrian9366 it seems to be a love it or hate it. I put in some real practice but just can't get into the wet

@rekt4guud134 the wet needs confidence and I am lacking. The limit is a knife edge and I obviously seem to not want to get cut 🙃

@@edwardbuchanan871 knife edge for sure, but imho it's much easier to catch it in the rain after losing it if the reaction time is quick enough, like it's much more forgiving than in the dry where if you start spinning the momentum just pushes you into a full spin, doesn't really do that in the rain. Edit: might be an iracing thing, or the fact it's the same tires in the dry and the wet, cause irl ik on wet tires camber is usually lower in the wet, but in iracing it almost feels like you want camber so you can "slice" through wet patch and get contact with the tarmac instead of aquaplaning, kinda how irl if you have 235 tires in the summer you'll want 195 in winter to reduce the contact patch allowing to cut through the snow. Edit edit xD : something to do with how much the weight is distributed across the tire, smaller tires means more weight per inch of contact patch.

@rekt4guud134 that race was with higher cambers, I think it did work better than lower, but I am definitely a rain rookie

@@nedo68 99% rain, worst luck or best luck ever depending on your view

@crispo77 yes I found that out! I could have held a tighter line though

@edwardbuchanan871 yeah but I've raced there IRL and there's no way the car behind would go 2 wide. Guess that's the difference between sim and real life. Track is so narrow there too.

@crispo77 irl ya nobody would want that repair bill 😄

@@edwardbuchanan871 that's for sure. It's my home circuit, I live 30 mins away and now thinking about it I think I've done nearly every discipline there. Raced cars (hot hatch), motorbikes British championship supermoto and Enduro, rallying in a group A evo 5, track days on a sports bike and even did a charity moped race ha ha. Every corner apart from hairpin were flat 🤣🤣

Great content keep it up

@@w201-og the blood has finally returned to my core. The shock is over. 👍

@duanebusch72 no, that was all me choking.

@rekt4guud134 Yes, you can blow the engine. You have to be extremely downshifting to do it

@nikopol9255 Unfortunately, there is not this week. Too bad

@SleepyCatRacing lots of fun, you had me sweating. The tires just fell off on the last half of the last lap. 😳

@Tia_Bea trading paints is on, maybe a new one? Good luck, for your race, and also finding a good race ☹️

@hansjmo yes for sure! It was not my best lap overall, but it was my best with the chicane

@@Tia_Bea it's going to collect a lot of x's. The time trial should be challenging

@myvishan I don't find it to be trouble. Reduce the arb to 15 and that will calm it down

@ i am now racing reduced it already let’s goooooo lights out

@rekt4guud134 looks like I have some practice to do 👍

@@edwardbuchanan871 same, it's really hard to hit right, really easy to spin out trying it, but yea if you take t7 starting further right, cutting sharper at the apex you go deeper into t8, if the weight is on the rear right by the time you hit the slope you get all the grip and rotation you need to hit it without having to jerk at the top of the rev limiter in 1st trying to control understeer.

@@edwardbuchanan871 think youtube removing my comment cause of link, imgur extention pMhbMKB dot png

There seem to be two ways to take T7-T8. In real life you would cut as much as possible in T7 and hug the inside through T8. If I have someone behind me I prefer that line in iRacing as well. However, it is also possible to send it harder into T7 and go a bit wider before T8. It is then crucial to be able to slow the car down and get some rotation before the track drops away. If you nail it, you can be super early on the throttle and use the extra grip in the compression to sling shot out of the corner. It seems to be a bit of an iRacing line though. Or perhaps a low power, no aero car line. I usually race a monster with 10 times the power and aero on the real track, so it is "slightly" different :P

@@FredrikSoerlie don't have other references than iracing so wouldn't know, i just know the way the corner is shaped when going with the inner line there is a moment of hesitation on the throttle that allows the weight of the car to go back to center very early in t8 and that causes understeer trying to get a fast exit. It does feel like 10 times safer tho, really sketchy going to other line but damn does it feel good when nailing it.

@@KillR000Y my favorite show of all time. That scene instantly made me think of Amos

@duanebusch72 good old turn 1 and 2. Brake early, turn in early, get on the throttle before the apex, and cut the corners. I am not on garage 61, week 13 I'll see if I can check it out

@ I thought I’d mention, but I found something on the steering adjustments. I had always left the MP and the range on the default values, I think they were both 1080. I adjusted the range down to 900, and now I have a little more turn, meaning, I can turn the wheel a little bit more, and get more turn. I didn’t have that before. It probably helped me a few tenths.

@duanebusch72 oh ya! Customize those inputs for sure. I have my wheel turn shorter and brakes 95% max for me and Customize ffb, default was way to stiff and no feel for slips

Then take a picture with your phone of the settings you like 👍

@youtubedriver6887 so unless it's a big hill, I do find shifting on the blue light faster. It's not going to drop your lap time by anything significant. However, based on other people's response to fuel levels, I use less fuel than most. A big reason I believe is shifting early. Some tracks I get away with 1L less, again not a huge difference but every bit helps 👍 . Thanks for the support

Thanks for the response! ​@@edwardbuchanan871
