No, that was another issue. Sync to race does work as intended.

I did few laps and noticed that my left rear tyre is really hot after 3-4 laps. at 1.26 or 1.36 tyre pressure same temprerature at wet tyres
What am I doing wrong?

Could be something to do with suspension? Potentially the is too much body roll?
I don't know I'm just guessing

 

[2scoops]

It maybe that that is the tyre that is taking the most load during the lap, have you tried raising the pressure in that tyre?

yap... I am guessing also something

Yes, from 1.26 to 1.36. Same it goes all the way to 110c in 3-4 laps

I remember having mega hot rear tyres (above 160 C) in the race we did at Dubai a little while ago. It ramped up dramatically in the laps after my pitstop. I can't remember if it was bad tyre pressures or what Could well have been a wrong pressure setting in the pit strategy menu, but it didn't affect the handling much.

Can I just ask what laptimes is everyone getting in the wet, I'm posting 1.51 and have no idea if that's a good pace if I need to look at it

 

[Mark]

I managed a 1:47 after a few laps this morning but I'm usually at least a couple of seconds off the pace so aim higher than that.

 

[Dama_The_Crow]

I am about 1:45 in rain, 1:37 high in clear.

 

[Darksi]

ok thats good, i managed to get it down to a low 1.48 in rain, haven't tried in dry yet, but also havent messed with setup yet either

 

[Mark]

I am about 1:45 in rain, 1:37 high in clear.

As I said, always seem to be two seconds down
Got into low 1.46 now on full fuel and standard setup but the tyres feel horrible even with just a little bit of temperature in them.

 

[2scoops]

What downforce was that set with?

 

[Mark]

My laps are with standard aero. Just a tweak to the final drive iirc. Managed a few 46.0s now but can't break into the 45s.

 

[Darksi]

looking forward to this race, its going to be my first official race with you guys. Hope i don't slow everyone down to much

Youll be allright dude. If you do find yourself being lapped then just keep to the racing line its down to them to get round you.. But most importantly remember the rules and have fun..

So I have been tweeting my set up for the last 30 mins. I don't think Im that fast but I have managed to get 1.44 in the wet and around the 1.36 in the dry. I have noticed that my current set up has a large bias toward the wet so I am off the pace in the dry. I'll just have to hope that most of the race is wet!
