Ok, I've seen you now try the Cup 2's, Goodyears, and now back to the Corsas. Which ones do you like the best, and is there that much of a difference between them!? And have you found the baseline setting for rebound, power, coast etc. you prefer?

[@redpriest26]

In order: 1) Goodyear, 2) Pirelli, 3) Michelin - although I just chunked the Corsas after about 70 mixed laps. Goodyears are fastest followed by pirelli, and michelin. Goodyears stay consistent better than the other two IMO in terms of lap time and fall off, which I prefer; Goodyears also happen to be cheaper but I keep seeing them hike the price. Going to try slimmer Nankang CR1 V2 I think next in normal 992 gt3 sizes. I almost always start off at neutral 0/0 settings but I like to have +1 power/coast on the diff, feels better coming out of hairpins. I then ramp up the rebound depending on how the track surface responds. Traction control on setting 2 in dynamic - it lets you slide without killing the power.

Appreciate the response! Good to hear the Pirellis perform well - thanks for all the insight. Looking forward to finally driving it on track when the weather warms here! @@redpriest26

This is such a large track! And are those houses next to the track or is that mostly stuff for rent? I would love to be there a couple days but I think the track would get old after a week :P Nice car btw! I really like the silver wheels

[@redpriest26]

Yeah they're houses of the members of this track. They only do the full connected track rarely, but i actually find the separate tracks and the multiple configurations they run pretty fun.

[@iamawesome6462]

Are you actively pressing the DRS button for straights? Or is it automatic after you've pressed it once?

[@redpriest26]

Actively pressing.
