This version is really good, maybe change it to chassis 5, add some grip and it could be decent to run it. Surely chin can give us his setup from last season to use

Just remember that this is not an open race to everyone.

Guess we could test tomorrow, I'll be home around 5:30ish unless my dad has to stay at work longer.

We get the right settings quickly and should be good for Thursday.

Baker on a scale of 1-10 stupidity that setup idea is a 9.

Nothing new here...

based on a stupidity scale, chassis 5 is a 19 out of 10 tbh

With the amount of grip the track has in real life, it's not too bad for the game I'm sure. Normally I'd agree with you, but it worked last season pretty well. Of course that was open setups, but still.

I have to work 2-10 tomorrow so I won't be here for this. I can set the server up and that would be about it.

Well, I had edited that track we ran last season to be more accurate than the smiffsden one, had it all ready but I guess I did it for nothing.

Don't see why we can't still use it, I haven't uploaded a track to the ftp yet.

alright then, a few things that are different from the smiffsden one is most of all the track geometry is accurate like the short chute apron being paved, and the turn 3 "apron" isn't 20 feet wide, also all the safer barriers and openings are in the right spot. I also fixed that pit road glitch we had, There was a section in the pit road that was "apron" and not "pit road"

Track is on the ftp, and the server is up. Just make sure that whoever continues the server has the setup chin posted selected. If you choose to continue it through the server computer, the setup is already there.

DK, locking up championships before the Chase even starts. Like a boss.

Anyways, at least for me, the setup sucked on the first lap. Second lap I had a ton more grip and felt like I could drive it. Worked my way up to 3rd or 4th on that first run. Then after that it was caution after caution so I couldn't get a chance to try it again...

My weakness on the first lap was my strength on the 5-20th lap in the run. Saved my tires and went from there. Wish it would've ended on a long run and I had not killed my car trying to make something of a missed restart due to going to the bathroom. Oh well, tried too hard on the gwc, wrecked because of it. Oh well.

baker confirmed for hack

Can someone post the exports before we had to restart the race because the server restarted? Dan posted a link to it last Thursday and I forgot to get it. Doing later today.
