Bottom post of the previous page:

Since my best time was set on the 7th lap, 1.05.77 will be my time.

Damn, I would have beaten nearly all of you :tongue: I did a 1.05.48 and a 49 the lap after. One tip that has worked for me to go faster. Go into Turn in 3 lift throttle slightly, than get back on it and keep it flat all the up the Esses in 4th. Only change to 5th when you are near the end of the guard rail on top of the hill. It took 2 tenths off my pb. And just drive like you're a complete nutter.

I have a G25 and I'm using GPLShift, and I don't know why you need the clutch :huh:

Here is a setup pack just in case :

"GH" are fast and stable
with "GH2" and "fast", it's harder to keep the car on track, but you'll need setups like this to get the last tenths

Started already with Albi....

I copied my Ferrari setup to the Eagle... just by renaming it. *.fe1 to *.ea1.

It helped a lot because i was lost in my Eagle set up.

I'm going to extend this a bit longer because I haven't had time to do much practice.
