@Cluck where you getting that top end from?
Unfortunately my only race will be Round 5.....
Attention reserve drivers, who is ready to race tomorrow? Please let me know

Do you really want to sacrifice cornering speed for straight line speed though?Except low radiator you can use low camber which gains topspeed a lot .
I've done some research and changes in toe, ride height, tire pressures, springs etc. don't have much effect on topspeed. Only radiator and camber change it significantly (that's at least what I found out with the Cayman).
Camber? Ha, the day I mess with camber will be the day I finally know what I'm doing in setups (ie, never!) . As it happens, the setup I'm using for the race is only marginally different to the setup I ran at Red Bull Ring, which itself was only marginally different to the setup I used for the two time-trial roundsExcept low radiator you can use low camber which gains topspeed a lot .

I did some laps in race conditions and was comfortable in the mid-1m45s at the start of the race - if I pushed, then I could do a 1m45-flat on the 1st flying lap of the race session. With low fuel, mid-1m44s times were comfortable too. I suspect we will see a 1m43 in quali.
I have exactly the same problem with the car, Ive only fixed my pedal issue yesterday and got about an hour of testing in. But to me you need at least a good 4 hours of testing to get the thing working and when you don't have a good balance out the box it really does suck the enjoyment out of it, looking forward to taking this car into a field and burning it at the end of the season xDI'm currently looking at 1.46-1.47. The car is just not behaving as I would like, lots of understeer, combined with some oversteer.
Willing to sell my soul for working setup for this stupid car. It is killing the fun for me, knowing good setup can make seconds a lap easily and I just can't do it.
